DP Series of DC Load Reversing Solid State Contactors

The DP Series of DC Load Reversing Solid State Contactors (SSCs) include four optically isolated DC low dissipation FET outputs rated up to 60 amps at 48 VDC, wired in an H-Bridge configuration with a common input control to provide a convenient method to both power on and off and reverse the polarity to a variety of DC loads including motors, brakes, clutches, electro magnets, solenoids, plating baths and electrolytic cells.

The DP Series also offers options for a variety of combinations of Internal PWM Soft Start/Ramp Up, PWM Soft Stop/Ramp Down and Dynamic Brake functions. Available with a selection of set ramp times, the soft start and stop functions provide a convenient means to eliminate or reduce the mechanical shocks associated with starting and stopping DC electro-mechanical loads.

  • Convenient FET switches in H-Bridge configuration
  • Control features to combine Soft Start/Ramp Up, Soft Stop/Ramp Down & Braking functions on each polarity
  • Built-in protective Forward/Reverse interlock function
  • 20, 40 & 60 Amps Operational Current rating
  • 48 VDC Rated Operating Voltage
  • UL & IEC ratings for General Use & Motor Loads
  • 4.5 to 15 VDC & 18 to 32 VDC Input Control Voltage options available
  • LED Status indicators for operating modes
  • Industry standard 75 x 105 mm Panel Mount package
  • CE and RoHS Compliant

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.
