ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS

• Solid State Relay (SSR): Standard mercury power relays can now be upgraded to long life solid state relays. The SSR upgrade eliminates the 12 month preventative maintenance replacement of mercury relays.
• Why: Although extremely durable, a mercury relay is still a mechanical device. Periodically, mercury relays need replacement. Over time, the operating cycle of a mercury relay can even fail. Upgrading to a solid state relay eliminates cycle life limit.
• Module Replacement: SSRs are mounted on a module board with cooling fans already installed. The SSR module is the same size as the mercury relay module.
• Electrical: 208 vac thru 480 VAC, 3 phase, 50/60 Hz.
• CE Listed: Solid state relays are thermally protected and CE listed.

QUICK INSTALLATION
