Crydom's New NOVA22 Solid State Relays Combines Power and Versatility

November 19, 2015

clogo.jpg

NOVA22s are 22.5mm DIN rail and panel mount solid state relays with greater power density (up to 95 Amps) and more connection options than any other comparable SSR on the market.

Crydom, the global expert in solid state switching technology, is pleased to announce the new NOVA22 AC and DC output solid state relays. NOVA22 solid state relays are available in both DIN rail (DR22 series) and Panel mount (PM22 series) packages:

NOVA22 solid state relays feature:
* DIN rail models rated up to 35 Amps and panel mount models rated up to 95 Amps
* 22.5mm wide package
* 4-32VDC, 90-280VAC/DC or 18-52VAC/DC input control options
* Relay or contactor configuration
* Innovative “Elevator” screw for easy connection of ring terminals
* LED input indicator
* Overvoltage protection
* Zero voltage or instantaneous turn-on output
* 100kA Short Circuit Current Rating
* Maximum I2t value of 8320 A2sec

Nova 22These features make NOVA22 SSRs unique in the market, outperforming competing products on each front with a broader working temperature range (-40ºC to +80ºC), and higher resistance to surge current (1290Amps x 20 msec). High I2t models (8320 A2S) allow use of the solid state relay in conjunction with circuit breakers instead of fuses allowing short circuit protection in Type 2 Coordination per IEC 60947-4-1. Contactor configuration models include a plug-in connector for the control input, available in either standard “screw” or “spring” terminals.

The DR22 series is available in either AC output voltage (48 to 600VAC) or DC output voltage (1 to 200VDC). Current rating at standard 40ºC is 20Amps, 30Amps and 35Amps (only for AC output) and high I2t value (8320 A2S), making NOVA22 the only 22.5mm DIN rail mount solid state relay with 35Amps @ 40ºC on the market!

The PM22 series is available with AC output voltage (48 to 600VAC). Current ratings include 25Amps, 50Amps and 95Amps and high I2t value (8320 A2S) making NOVA22 the only 22.5mm panel mount solid state relay with 95Amps on the market! Crydom also offers the new HSP-7 thermal pad available for purchase as an accessory or already assembled on the solid state relay to facilitate installation.

Crydom’s NOVA22 DR22 Series is cULus Listed and PM22 Series is cURus approved according to UL508 standard. AC Output devices are also TUV certified according to EN 62314 standard. Other certifications include; CE compliant to the Low Voltage and EMC Directives and to the RoHS and China RoHS Directives.
