DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The new RF1 mini puck solid state relay complements the extensive range of Carlo Gavazzi solid state switching solutions with the addition of a new compact platform that occupies only 30% the space normally required with standard hockey puck solid state relays. Despite the compact dimensions, reliability is not compromised. Switching is done through back to back thyristors that are more robust compared to triacs. The use of wire bonding assembly technology adapted in the design of the RF1 ensures less mechanical and thermal stresses on the output chips leading to a longer product lifetime. The RF1 is the solution when space is a constraint and when trouble free frequent switching of resistive loads is required.
The RF1 is particularly suited when trouble free operation is required for a large number of cycles and space is a big constraint.
• Coffee machines
• Climatic chambers
• Kitchen appliances
• Temperature control units
• Vending machines
In particular to the Food & Beverage industry the RF1 conforms to the glow wire test requirements of EN 60335-1 and is certified by UL for 100,000 cycles acc. to UL508. Integrated protection ensures reliable operation and reduces downtime.
