SSRs handle heavy surges

Power-IO has developed a novel family of solid-state relays that include the Maximum Surge Survival technology for a triple-layer barrier against damage from voltage fluctuations.

Power-IO has developed a novel family of solid-state relays that include the Maximum Surge Survival technology for a triple-layer barrier against damage from voltage fluctuations.

This trademarked engineering method uses the cumulative effect of a strong attenuation circuit, followed by a voltage blocking circuit that is set at 800, 1200 or 1400V, and then followed by an intelligent control activation circuit.

This results in a solid-state relay that is 8-12 times more "bullet-proof" when exposed to the voltage spikes and surges that are common in industrial applications.

The Maximum Surge Survival feature is available in the "hockey-puck" solid-state relays or in DIN-rail solid-state relays that use an integrated heatsink and enclosed wire terminals.
