MCPC4890C

Solid-State Relays (SSRs) are electrical switches used to control various kinds of electrical devices such as motors, pumps, compressors, valves, pumps, actuators and more. The MCPC4890C SSR is a popular SSR used in many types of industrial and commercial applications. This relay offers reliable, long-lasting electrical control by utilizing a solid-state switching mechanism without resorting to traditional mechanical methods.

The MCPC4890C features a slim design and a rugged epoxy-filled construction which make it suitable for all kinds of harsh industrial applications. It can be used in both DC and AC electricity, taking on input voltages from 5VDC to 288VAC. The output is available in both AC and DCvoltages, as well. Furthermore, the MCPC4890C features a "part-on" indicator LED, an LED status indicator, an adjustable pick-up level, an adjustable trip level, and a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

At the heart of the MCPC4890C\'s solid-state switching is an SCR, or silicon-controlled rectifier. This device contains three electrical terminals, called gate, anode, and cathode. By applying a voltage to the gate terminal, a current will flow between the anode and cathode terminals. This enables it to serve as an electrical switch, as the current can be easily stopped by removing the voltage from the gate terminal.

The MCPC4890C also uses a triac switch in order to control AC power. This switch also has three electrical terminals, but in this case they are designated MT2, MT1, and MT0. The MT2 terminal is connected to the supply voltage, while the MT1 and MT0 terminals are switched to provide either zero or full voltage. By controlling the switching rate of the MT1 and MT0 terminals, the device can also control the power drawn by the AC load, allowing for a wide range of power levels to be controlled.

The MCPC4890C also includes an over-voltage, under-voltage, and over-temperature protection circuit built into the device. This ensures maximum operability and protection against damage in case of electrical surges or other abnormal conditions. This also allows it to be used in a wide variety of applications, including automotive and communications systems.

The MCPC4890C SSR is suitable for a wide variety of applications, and its slim design and robust construction make it suitable for use in even the most demanding industrial environments. It is easy to install, offers reliable control, and is able to handle tough electrical load conditions. With its range of features and protections, the MCPC4890C is an excellent choice for use in a variety of industrial and commercial applications.
