This relay is designed for use
in applications in which it is
exposed to high surge condi-

ensure

high sustained currents. Ade-

between relay terminals and
cable must be ensured.

Thermal characteristics
The thermal design of Solid
State Relays is very important.
Compare the value found in the load current versus tempera-
ture chart with the standard heatsink values and select the
heatsink with the next lower value.

It is essential that the user
makes sure that cooling is ad-
equate and that the maximum
junction temperature of the
relay is not exceeded.
If the heatsink is placed in a
small closed room, control panel
or the like, the power dissipation
can cause the ambient tempe-
rature to rise. The heatsink is
to be calculated on the basis
of the ambient temperature and
the increase in temperature.
