Solid State Relays
Solid state relays switch loads electronically, with no moving contacts. The sub-category covers solid state relays and solid state interface relays for panel and machine use. Because they switch silently and without arcing, they also suit places where noise or contact wear is a concern.
They suit applications with frequent switching, such as heating control, where mechanical contacts would wear out. Consider the load type, the control voltage, the load rating and how heat will be removed in the enclosure.
