RGC2, RGC3 RGC2, RGC3 3-phase solid state relays with integrated heatsink Benefits Panel space savings. Concentrated power the RGC 3-phase switching range can handle up to 65 AAC per pole (or 75 AAC for 2-pole switching) in a 70 mm wide footprint. Long lifetime. Wire bonding technology reduces thermal and mechanical stresses of the output chips resulting in a larger number of possible operational cycles compared to other assembly technologies. Low machine downtime. Integrated overvoltage protection prevents the solid state relay from breaking down due to uncontrolled transients that may occur on the lines. Ease of use. The RGC2A and RGC3A are ready to use solutions provided with integrated heatsink thus eliminating the need for the user to calculate the size of heatsink needed for adequate thermal dissipation. Description Fast wiring. Power connections for models rated 30 A are equipped with terminals that can handle cables up to 2 This product is intended to replace mechanical 25 mm / AWG3 cables. contactors especially when switching is frequent. The Integrated monitoring for timely detection of malfunctions. Optional feature on the 3-phase RGC smallest product width in the RGC2, RGC3 range is series that enables detection of mains loss, over 54 mm (3xDIN) and goes up to 70 mm. 2-pole and temperature and solid state relay or load malfunction. 3-pole switching options are available. Accommodates UL508A requirements for Industrial Control Panels. The RGC 3-phase range is certified as a Apart from resistive and slightly inductive loads, the listed product. All models carry a 100 kArms Short Circuit RGC is certified for motor switching with associated Current Rating. motor ratings. A green LED gives indication of control voltage presence. Fan operation is controlled for the versions which have an integrated fan. Detection of SSR overheat, mains loss, SSR malfunction and load loss is possible with the RGC..M versions. An EMR alarm output is available for remote signaling. An additional feature with the RGC..M is the electronic auxiliary output. The RGC..M has additional LEDs for load status and alarm status indication. Specifications are at a surrounding temperature of 25C unless otherwise specified.
