RGC3P60I65C16AFM – 3P -SSC I IN – 16FC 600V 3X65A 1200VP-MNTR

Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi RGC3P60I65C16AFM Solid State Contactor?

The Carlo Gavazzi RGC3P60I65C16AFM is a robust three-phase solid state contactor (SSR) designed for proportional control of three-phase AC loads in industrial automation, heating systems, machinery and process-control applications. As part of the advanced Carlo Gavazzi RGC3P series, it combines analogue current control with 16-cycle distributed full-cycle switching, integrated monitoring, built-in overvoltage protection and an integrated fan-cooled heatsink.

This solid state contactor provides electronic switching without mechanical contacts, enabling silent operation, rapid response and reduced mechanical wear. The C16 switching mode distributes groups of 16 complete AC cycles to regulate the power delivered to the connected load. Integrated monitoring supports detection of mains loss, load loss on any phase and over-temperature conditions, while the integrated fan provides active cooling for the heatsink.

With a rated operational current of 65 A at 40 °C, an operating voltage range of 180–660 V AC and analogue 0–20 mA, 4–20 mA or 12–20 mA DC control, the RGC3P60I65C16AFM is suitable for proportional regulation of demanding three-phase industrial loads. An external 90–250 V AC supply powers the control and monitoring electronics, while its three-pole DIN rail or panel mounting provides flexible installation within industrial control panels.

Precise Proportional Control for Industrial Loads

Solid state contactors such as the Carlo Gavazzi RGC3P60I65C16AFM use semiconductor technology to regulate three-phase AC loads without mechanical contacts. This provides silent operation, rapid response and reduced mechanical wear compared with conventional electromechanical switching devices.

The C16 configuration is designed for proportional control using distributed groups of complete AC cycles. The analogue control signal determines the required output level, allowing the solid state contactor to regulate power supplied to the connected three-phase load while switching complete cycles rather than chopping individual AC waveforms. Integrated monitoring provides additional diagnostic capability by detecting mains loss, load loss on individual phases and over-temperature conditions.
