Product Description
This new range of solid state
contactors presents a unique
opportunity to maximize efficiency in panel space and is an
evolution of solid state switches for which Carlo Gavazzi is
very well known.
Voltage transient protection is standard across the output with a varistor.
Specifications are stated at 25°C unless otherwise noted.
1. Germanischer Lloyd approval applicable only to models RGC...15KGU,
RGC...20KGU and RGC...30KGU
The nominal current ratings
are at 40˚C. The smallest
width is 17.5mm and is rated
at 20 AAC. Power and control
teminals allow for safe looping
of cables.

Detailed Over temperature Alarm Procedure (for RGC...P)
ALARM Signal and Fan
ALARM Signal only
(applicable to RGC..D90GGUP)
CAUTION
• Alarm condition resets whenever the voltage signal is removed from terminal A1 (+)
• In the case of RGC...D90GGUP, if the voltage signal is not applied across A1(+) and A2 (-) terminals, the overtemperature detection and functionality is lost
(including fan operation and alarm signalling)
• In the case of RGC1A60A90GGUP it is necessary to supply IN2 and IN3 with 24VDC for fan operation.
• Alarm procedure for RGC1A60A90GGUP follows ‘Alarm signal only’ flow since fan is continously operating.
• Alarm condition automatically resets ONLY when power semiconductor temperature < 80˚C
• Temperatures indicated are typical figures.
