Description
The DC60MP is a DC-controlled solid-state relay (SSR) capable of switching up to 60VDC at 3A, designed in a compact epoxy-encapsulated package for PCB mounting. It features high optical isolation, robust surge handling, and integrated heat-spreader technology for improved thermal performance and long-term reliability. This relay is widely used in industrial control, automation systems, and high-density PCB relay applications.
Features
- Switching capability up to 60VDC and 3A load current
- 4,000V optical isolation between input and output
- Rugged epoxy encapsulated construction
- High surge tolerance with pre- and post-test validation
- Integrated heat-spreader for efficient thermal dissipation
- Designed for high-density PCB mounting
