Why Choose the Lovato HS3C6HV040A230 Solid State Relay?
The Lovato HS3C6HV040A230 is a high-performance three-phase solid state relay (SSR) complete with heatsink, designed for reliable electronic switching of resistive and motor loads in industrial control and automation systems. As part of the Lovato HS3C solid state relay series, it provides three controlled phases, a 40 A AC-51 current rating and contactless switching for applications requiring frequent operation and long service life.
Using SCR (silicon controlled rectifier) output technology with zero-crossing switching, the HS3C6HV040A230 provides fast, silent operation without the mechanical contact wear associated with conventional electromechanical contactors. Its integrated heatsink provides the thermal management required for dependable operation, while VDR output protection helps protect the switching electronics against voltage transients.
With a 48–600 V AC rated operating voltage and 90–280 V AC control voltage, this three-phase SSR is suitable for a broad range of industrial AC loads. It is rated at 40 A AC-51 at 40 °C for resistive loads and 15 A AC-53 at 40 °C for motor loads, with screw terminals providing secure industrial wiring connections.
