Sparkfun Solid State Relay - 40A (3-32V DC Input)

The Solid State Relay - 40A is a high-functioning device designed by Sparkfun that enables the control of high-current AC loads from lower voltage DC control circuitry. This relay is a superior alternative to mechanical relays, offering a multitude of advantages such as low voltage and current switching capabilities. Its non-mechanical nature allows for rapid switching and extended periods of operation without wear and tear. The Solid State Relay - 40A is capable of switching current loads of up to 40A, with a 3-32V DC input and a zero cross trigger control method. It comes equipped with four screw terminals, suitable for use with ring or fork connectors. The relay also includes a protective plastic cover that slides over the top to safeguard the terminals.Some of the key features of this solid state relay include a trigger current of 7.5mA/12V, control voltage of 24-380V AC, input voltage of 3-32V DC, and zero cross. These features combined make the relay highly efficient and versatile for a wide range of applications.Sparkfun's Solid State Relay - 40A is a perfect choice for those looking for a reliable and robust relay. The absence of moving parts ensures a longer lifespan, while the rapid switching capability enhances its performance. Whether you're controlling lighting systems, adjusting power to heating elements, or managing motors, this solid state relay offers the control and flexibility you need.For more detailed information about the specifications and operation of the Solid State Relay - 40A, refer to the datasheet provided by Sparkfun. A comprehensive product video is also available to help you understand the relay's features and applications better.
