What is a Circuit Protection device?

A circuit protection device is a fail-safe device that originates a disruption in an electrical circuit when it recognizes an excess and unsafe power load in a circuit. The main aims of circuit protection are to localise and isolate the situation or fault and avert and minimize any unnecessary power loss.

What Do We Supply?

We have broad selection of circuit protection devices, including:

Circuit breakers

Thermal circuit breakers

Thermal-magnetic circuit breakers

Magnetic circuit breakers

Hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers

Fuses

LV fuse links

LV fusegear

Sensata / Crydom DRC3P Series (DIN Rail Mount AC Output) Solid State Relays

The DRC3P Series is a family of DIN Rail Mount, IEC standard based Solid State Contactors with a proprietary thermal management technology, which allows them to switch on and off 3-phase loads of up to 7.6 Amps per phase at 600 VAC in a compact 45mm wide package.The DRC3P Series Solid State Contactors are particularly suited for demanding applications where you need to control (start/stop) 3-phase motors of up to 5HP at 480 VAC. They offer the highest switching frequency in the market (up to 9000 cycles per hour), making them the ideal solution for replacement of electromechanical contactors in applications that require high reliability and/or frequent switching.

The DRC3P Series models are available in 2 configurations (with 2 or 3 controlled legs) and they are available with optional embedded auxiliary contacts for additional functionality in your control circuits.

Features:

LED input status indicator
AC or DC control
Zero voltage (resistive loads) or instantaneous (inductive loads) turn-on output
Available with Solid State or EMR auxiliary contacts
Built-in Overvoltage Protection
UL 100 kA Short Circuit Current Rating
C-UL-US listed, IEC rated, CE compliant, Horsepower Rated
