Crydom Introduces 36 New Models to the 53 Series of Panel Mounted 3Phase AC Output Solid State Contactor Relays

The Crydom 53 series of Panel Mounted 3Phase AC output Solid State Relays now includes new IP20 touch safe models and 3Phase motor reversing models, all meeting IEC emissions & transient susceptibility requirements.

Crydom, a company of Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST) and global expert in Solid State Relay Technology, announces the addition of 36 new models to its successful 53 Series of Panel mounted AC output 3Phase SSR Contactors. The expanded Crydom 53 Series offer now includes models featuring IP20 touch safe covers with load current ratings of either 25 or 50 amps per channel at 530 VAC. Designed for harsh environments and available with either AC or DC input control voltages, the new 3Phase models also feature IEC emissions compliance to CISPR 11 Class A, and EMC immunity per IEC 61000-4-2 through -6, level 3.

The 53 Series offer from Crydom now also includes 2 new 3Phase Solid State motor reversing Relays rated at either 25 or 50 amps per channel. The reversing models include the same IP20 touch safe design, Class A emissions and level 3 noise immunity as the new 3 phase SSR contactor models. Available with 3 to 32 VDC input control, Reversing models include a safety control interlock circuit which prevents simultaneous forward and reversing commands.

All new Crydom 53 Series SSR Contactors and Motor Reversing SSRs are UL & cUL recognized, TUV approved and CE compliant to Low Voltage Directive.

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.
