Sensata / Crydom 8413 Series Solid State Relay, 25 A Load, Panel Mount, 280 V ac Load, 32V dc Control

Set up a long-term solution for your single-phase switching needs with this robust solid-state relay from Sensata | Crydom. Its rated load current of 25A means it's just the thing for use in high-power applications. Zero-cross switching technology means it switches on when the voltage is close to 0V, helping to increase efficiency and reduce noise. It's panel-mounted, so fitting this unit into your setup is a cinch. Anti-rotation barriers in the housing keep it securely in place when things get shaky. This piece of kit is the smart choice for lighting networks, robotics and medical equipment.

• Self-extinguishing for safety in the event of a fire

SSRs use semiconductors to carry out the switching tasks performed by an armature in mechanical relays. As they have no moving parts, they're unlikely to wear out, so they offer a longer service life than electromechanical relays.
