The Series ZD, Series ZD20CF, Series ZD24CC, and Series LPD70 solid-state relays provide short-circuit and overload protection. The 1-A, 80-Vdc ZD uses a power FET switch and optical isolation to ...

Carlo Gavazzi is proud to introduce its new line of mid-range IEC contactors, overloads and accessories. The GC Series Contactors are available in 4 frame sizes, ranging from 25Amps to 140Amps (up to ...

Relays and contactors use a variety of technologies to switch signals and power connections. Many devices called relays use similar techniques and topologies, but the terminology can be confusing.

I see techs in the field get the most frustrated when they have a low-voltage short they can’t seem to locate. The challenge techs face with low voltage diagnosis is a combination of poor process and ...

Relays, Contactors, and Motor Starters provides an overview of the primary components involved in electric motor control. Relays are electrical switches that control a circuit. When activated by ...

Safety is a major concern in a good many motor-driven applications. This is true in industrial applications where motion starts when power is applied and especially true when power is restored after ...

The usual way of preventing a small motor from drawing too much current is to install overcurrent protection in the form of a circuit breaker or some other kind of limiter. But installations that ...

Electric drives require effective protection against overloads and short circuits. Both phenomena cause motor disruption and create a risk of damage to the motor. This could lead to a potentially ...
