This document provides a connection diagram and specifications for a solid state relay (SSR) that can be used to switch a 230V AC load such as an appliance. The SSR uses a 12V DC control signal and switches the load at zero crossovers to reduce electromagnetic interference. It has optical isolation between the input and output, and requires adequate heat sinking to dissipate heat when switched on. Terminals for high current lines going to the load must be securely crimped. The document also notes that a high rupture capacity fuse rated for the load in amps should be used for safety and reliability.

SSR or Solid State Relay or Electronic Relay .


This is a Thyristor Based Normally Open 230V Switch that can be turned
on / off at a fast rate. This switches at Zero Crossover .Built In Snubber
protects the SSR and Reduces EMI. Use 12V DC for Best Results.

a. No moving parts hence no wear and tear.


b. Dissipates Heat when in On Condition.
c. Use adequate Heat Sink or SSR will fail. ( 10g / Amp)
d. Dissipation is 1.5 Watts per Amp thru Load.
d. Input to Output is optically isolated 2kV.
e. This one is DC 3-30 Control AC 230V N.O. Output.
f. Off state snubber Leakage is around 5 mA.
N The Termination’s of High Current Lines going to Load must be
very tight and crimped. Loose contacts will Spark and cause Fire.
FUSE RATING OF HRC FUSE
High Rupture Capacity (HRC) Fuse is Safe and Reliable. 5kW Heater at 230V is
5,000 / 230 in Amps of Fuse Rating.
