CC2425E3U

Solid state relays (SSR) are electromechanical devices that use an input signal, typically a low voltage current source, to control and switch the output circuit which is isolated from the input. The CC2425E3U solid state relay (SSR) is an example of such a device, used for load switching and motor control in industrial applications. This article looks into the application fields and basic working principle of the CC2425E3U SSR.

Application

The CC2425E3U is a solid-state relay that is used to control the switching of electrical loads, controlling the operation of motors, controlling AC/DC power amplifiers, power supply entry and exit test benches, process control, and HVAC systems. Its application fields include, among others, manufacturing, control applications, and test benches.

Design and Features

The CC2425E3U features a slim and flat body that is compatible with standard wiring. It has a built-in thermal overload protection and has a rated operating time of more than 100,000 times. It also has a built-in self-reset fuseand is not affected by voltage drop or surges, meaning itcan be used in rough environments.

Working Principle

When the input voltage is applied, the CC2425E3U SSR monitors the current flowing through the input energizing the coil inside the relay. When the current flowing reaches the rated current point of the relay, the switch is operated, and the output is connected to the load. When the current falls below the pull-in node, the switch switches back, disconnecting the load from the input voltage. This cycling continues as long as the input voltage is supplied to the relay.

Conclusion

The CC2425E3U solid state relay is a robust and reliable SSR which can be used for switching load currents up to 15 amp. It is designed for use in a variety of applications including manufacturing, control. Its slim, flat body and thermal overload protection make it an ideal choice for everyday use in industrial applications.
