Crydom has combined solid state and mechanical switching
technologies to create a contactor with longer operational life
than standard EMR's in an industry standard package!

Crydom, global expert in solid state relay technology, introduces a new line of high power Hybrid Solid State Contactors for use in Heating and Lighting applications where Mercury Displacement Relays have previously been applied, and where life cycle constraints limit the use of Definite Purpose Contactors.

crydom_rhp.pdf

Mounting identically to a standard 3 phase DP (Definite Purpose) contactor, and featuring full load life cycle ratings of greater than 2 million operations, the new RHP line includes 3 phase contactor configurations rated at 120, 240, 280 or 600 VAC at 40 or 50 amp load ratings per phase at 65 degrees C ambient temperature. Control voltages of 24, 120 or 220 VAC, and unique logic compatible 5, 12 or 24 VDC input control options are offered. The RHP line is UL and cUL approved and CE certified.

The RHP line incorporates Crydom's proven Hybrid SSR technology that utilizes contactless Solid State Relay turn on and turn off performance, coupled with the very low on state power dissipation characteristics of contactors, thus eliminating the need for heat sinking. The higher power switching capabilities of the new RHP line means that in those applications where Mercury Displacement Relays are no longer welcome, the OEM manufacturer now has a cost effective alternative available. Similarly, in applications where contactor life cycles are a limiting or maintenance cost concern, the new Crydom RHP Contactor provides significantly longer operational life capability in an identical mounting package.

Crydom Solid State Relays (SSRs) are widely used in applications where controlling different types of motors is necessary. They are used for AC motor speed control, motor reversing, starting motors, soft starting and soft stopping of motors, motor starting switches of both single phase and three phase motors.

Crydom SSRs are also used to control DC motors.  DC relays can be used as a switch, for reversing DC motors, or using PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for DC motor speed controls.

Crydom Solid State Relays (SSRs) are utilized in numerous medical applications. Crydom SSRs are used to control motors in hospital beds, examination tables, and rehabilitation equipment. SSR’s are also widely used for heating controls in sterilization equipment, blood warming units, and incubators.

Since Crydom SSRs utilize silicon for switching loads and therefore have no contacts that arc, contact contamination and the danger of sparking are eliminated. Coupled with an epoxy-filled encapsulation, the Crydom SSR is resistant to steam and other sterilization techniques.

The recent introduction of the Crydom MC series of SSR/controllers is an all in one solution that includes both a controller and a Crydom SSR in one package to control temperature, phase control, or soft start, soft stop functions.

October 25, 2007 - Crydom, an operation of Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST), announces the first solid state relays available on the market with UL approved short-circuit current ratings (SCCR). These relays facilitate industrial control panel builders' efforts to comply with the new article 409 from NEC and the latest version of UL508A, both request SCCR marking, by providing them with pre-approved ratings for SSR/fuse combination.

According to Dr. Oscar Montero, from the Crydom Global Technical Center, "Standard 5kA SCCR on power devices prevents panel builders from offering panels with higher ratings. Panels with a higher SCCR could be connected to electrical systems with different available currents bringing market advantages for panel builders. However, establishing a higher SCCR may represent significant challenges and additional costs for panel builders."

Crydom's approved ratings allow panel builders to establish the SCCR for the branch circuit where the relay is located without performing additional testing. The ratings can be added directly to the manufacturer's procedure. Hence, effectively reducing the time-to-market cycle for the panel and cost associated to compliance.

Crydom has obtained UL approval for SCCR by testing the combination SSR/Fuse under the "umbrella fuse" requirement allowing more flexibility to Crydom customers to mix and match SSR and fuses of different ratings.
