Crydom Offers Ready-To-Use SSR/Socket Assemblies

Crydom has introduced a range of pluggable/solderable single inline solid state relays (SSRs), DIN rail-mounted sockets and ready-to-use SSR/socket assemblies. The 5mm-wide CN series SSRs meet industry-standard pin-out configurations for both solid state and electromechanical relays and are designed to be plugged into Crydom DRSCN series sockets or soldered into printed circuit boards (PCBs).

Featuring all solid-state optically coupled designs, CN-series models are available with either a 240/2A AC output, 24/3.5A DC output, or 48/0.1A DC output. Available input configurations include 2.5 to 12V DC, 15 to 30V DC and 38 to 72V DC. DRSCN series DIN rail-mounted sockets include input status LED indicator and are available for 5V DC to 12V DC or 15V DC to 30V DC control inputs, and 60 to 120 or 60 to 250V AC/V DC control inputs. The 6.2mm wide DRSCN sockets are designed to accept industry-standard 5mm wide SSRs or EM relays. They snap onto standard 35mm DIN rail.

SSRs are easily plugged into the sockets and removed via a convenient latch mechanism. Available marker strips for the sockets are also offered to allow easy circuit function identification for each socket. Combining the CN relays and DRSCN sockets, Crydom also offers ready-to-use SSR/socket assemblies. The DRA-CN series offers all of the features and benefits of both the CN SSRs and DRSCN sockets, but in a ready-to-use configuration.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
