LVD Series
Panel Mounted Low Voltage Disconnect
DC Solid State Switches
Crydom LVD Series Solid State Switches were developed to offer the advantages of Crydom’s thermal
management technology in a switch that monitors a system’s battery voltage and disconnects the battery from
the system when it’s voltage falls below a preset low voltage value.
FEATURES
Wide range of output current ratings and control set points
MOSFET DC switching technology
Industry standard package
Ambient temperature compensated
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Please read all installation instructions before using your LVD Series switch.
Choose one of the two mounting options and follow the instructions.
Mounting on Heat Sink
Select adequate heat sink (see thermal derating curves)
Be sure to use thermal pad/grease between LVD switch and the selected heat sink
Align SSR tabs with heat sink surface and screw both top and bottom sides. Recommended
torque is 20 in lb (2.2 Nm)
Mounting on Panel
Locate the panel section on which the LVD switch will be mounted on
Be sure to use thermal pad/grease between LVD switch and the panel
Tab holes have a diameter of 0.125 in (3.2 mm). You will need two screws no longer than that to
mount the LVD switch onto panel
Align LVD switch tabs with panel surface and screw both top and bottom sides. Recommended
torque is 20 in lb (2.2 Nm)
