Carlo Gavazzi launched the RG..M Series of single-phase solid state relays and contactors with integrated monitoring features. The RG..M consists of solid state switches that integrate monitoring features for quick and timely failure detection, besides the switching function. Timely failure detection eliminates the need for re-work and prevents scrap, leading to better production throughput and better quality products. Detection for mains loss, load loss, SSR open and short circuit, SSR internal fault and supply out of range are possible without a need for external components. The RG..M of solid state contactors and relays are equipped with an Alarm LED for visual indication of fault presence, and an alarm transistor output for remote signaling.

The RG..M solid state relays are available with either an integrated heatsink, RGC..M or without the heatsink, RGS..M. Ratings go up to 660 Vac, 65 AAC (for the RGC..M) and 90 AAC (for the RGS..M). The RG..M Series is controlled with a 4 to 32 Vdc input signal, and must be supplied with 24 Vdc.

The specifications of the RG..M Series include:
– Single-phase solid state devices
– Integrated system monitoring
– Mains and load loss detection
– SSR open and short circuit detection
– LED indication of fault conditions
– NO and NC transistor output
– Pluggable spring input and alarm terminals
– RGC1..M SSR with an integrated heat sink
– RGS1..M SSR requiring an external heat sink
– Rated voltage up to 660 Vac
– Control voltage of 4-32 Vdc
– RGC1..M: loads up to 65AAC at 40°C
– RGS1..M: loads up to 90AAC at 40°C
– CE, EAC, cULus (RGC), cRUus and CSA (RGS)
