Everything you need to know about single phase solid state relays: advantages and applications In an increasingly automated and energy-efficient world, single-phase solid-state relays (SSRs) stand out as essential components in modern heating and lighting systems. These extraordinary devices replace traditional electromechanical relays with cutting-edge electronic technology, offering significant advantages: ultra-fast switching, completely silent operation, […]
When cheap SSRs cost you more: technical and safety failures explained Choosing low-cost, poor-quality SSRs might seem like a way to save money, but it can lead to serious consequences. These products often feature hidden compromises—lower-rated components, flawed designs, and inadequate testing or certification—that put both your equipment and personnel at risk. Key dangers of […]
AC SSRs : difference about switching thyristor and triac AC switching solid state relays use back-to-back Thyristors and TRIAC’s as their built-in output switching device. What is the difference between Triacs and Thyristors ? Working principles of Thyristors and Triacs Most common output devices used in AC SSR are silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) and triacs, both are part […]
3-phase Solid State Relays and Contactors A three phase Solid State Relays (SSR) is 3 individual single phase SSRs packaged in a single housing with a common input so that each SSR is energized simultaneously. In fact, it is not unusual to use 3 individual SSRs to switch a three-phase load but this is of […]
