SSR-480D25 datasheet by TE Connectivity

SSR-480D25 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout and thermal management for optimal performance?
  TE Connectivity recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area for heat dissipation, and a thermal management system with a heat sink and thermal interface material to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
• How do I ensure reliable operation in high-vibration environments?
  To ensure reliable operation in high-vibration environments, TE Connectivity recommends using a secure mounting method, such as screwing or clipping the relay to the PCB, and using a vibration-resistant connector.
• What is the maximum surge current rating for this relay?
  The SSR-480D25 has a maximum surge current rating of 100A for 10ms, but this value may vary depending on the application and operating conditions. It's recommended to consult with TE Connectivity's application engineers for specific guidance.
• Can I use this relay in a safety-critical application?
  The SSR-480D25 is not designed for safety-critical applications and does not have the necessary certifications (e.g. IEC 61508, ISO 26262). TE Connectivity recommends using relays specifically designed and certified for safety-critical applications.
• What is the expected lifespan of this relay in a typical industrial control application?
  The expected lifespan of the SSR-480D25 in a typical industrial control application is around 10-15 years, depending on the operating conditions, load, and maintenance. However, this value may vary, and it's recommended to consult with TE Connectivity's application engineers for specific guidance.
