PROFILE
Correct management of electrical
heating elements for industrial heating
applications
requires robust, safe, interferencefree, fast and diagnostically capable
static contactors.
The range of static contactors with
GRS-H heatsink meets all these
requirements, with current ratings
from 15 to 120 Amperes and voltages
up to 600 V AC, with extremely
compact size in every single current
level.
The thermal design of all models
guarantees the continuous supply
of the rated current at an ambient
temperature of 40°C through high
efficiency heat sinks, assisted by fans
for the 90A and 120A models.
The derating curves show how higher
current values can also be achieved,
at lower temperatures, and illustrates
the possibility of mounting various
devices packed together on the DIN
rail.
GRS COMMAND SIGNAL
CONNECTION
The GRS-H series can be controlled
by DC and AC logical signals
managed through push-in connectors
for a faster and easier connection,
even without tools.
The ON / OFF status of the static
device is always displayed by a
green LED on the front panel, for an
immediate view of its operation.
POWER CONNECTIONS
Both the line voltage terminal available
on the upper part of the device and
the load terminal on the lower part are
of the “cage” type, which offers the
best and safest seal even for cables
of different cross-sections, whether
mounted with a cable lug or simply
stripped.
DIAGNOSTICS AND ALARMS
It is increasingly vital for operators
and maintainers to recognize possible
anomalies in the system immediately
and solve them quickly in order to
ensure the efficiency and profitability
of machinery and plants. The GRS-H
series offers a series of diagnostic
information associated with a physical
alarm output with voltage-free or
PNP-type isolated contact.
The thermal alarm is triggered if
heat dissipation exceeds a critical
threshold, signalling it with a yellow
led on the front panel, interrupting the
power supply and triggering the alarm
output (NO or NC). This function is
always present for current levels from
50 A up to 120 A, and is available as
an option for other current levels.
The absence of current on the load (for
models with DC control) is indicated
by a red led on the front panel and by
the activation of the alarm output, as
well as by the absence of line voltage.
Alarm output status is memorized: in
the presence of a 24 V DC auxiliary
power supply, the alarm will be
memorized even in the event of an
OFF command.
The alarm is reset when normal
operating conditions are restored, or
when the 24 V DC auxiliary power
supply is switched off and on again.

THERMAL PROTECTION
(Optional, always present in GRS-H with
current size ≥ 50A):
The temperature of the SCR module is
constantly monitored inside the device.
When the maximum temperature
threshold of the internal SCR is
exceeded, current conduction to the load
is interrupted and the yellow thermal
protection LED comes on to signal the
condition.
Use the extra-rapid fuse shown in the
catalogue according to the connection
example supplied.
Applications with static units must also
include a safety circuit breaker for
disconnecting the power line from the
load.
To obtain high reliability of the device,
• Horizontal distance between one
device and another at least 20mm
(in the event of installation at shorter
distances, see derating curves).
Make sure that the cable ducts do
not reduce these distances; in this
case, mount the units overhanging the
panel, so that the air can flow vertically
on the heat sink without hindrance.
it is essential to install it correctly inside
the panel in order to obtain adequate
heat exchange between the heat
sink and the surrounding air under
conditions of natural convection.
Mount the device vertically (maximum
10° inclination from the vertical axis)
• Vertical distance between a device
and the panel wall >100mm
• Horizontal distance between a device
and the panel wall at least 20mm
• Vertical distance between one device
and another at least 300mm.
Limits of use
• Ambient temperature limits, depending
on derating curves.
• Need for air exchange with the outside
or an air conditioner to transfer the
dissipated power to the outside of the
panel.
• Installation limits (distances between
devices to ensure dissipation under
natural convection conditions)
• Maximum voltage limits and derivative
of the transients present on the line, for
DIMENSIONS AND MOUNTING MEASUREMENTS
which the static unit provides internal
protection devices (depending on the
models).
• Presence of leakage current < 3mA
(max. value with nominal voltage and
junction temperature of 125°C).

PERIODIC CLEANING
Every 6-12 months (depending on dust in the place where it is installed), blow a jet of compressed air downward through the cooling heatsink (on the opposite side of the fan).
In this way both the heat sink and the cooling fan are cleaned.
IN THE EVENT OF OVERTEMPERATURE ALARM
If periodic cleaning does not eliminate the problem, perform the following operations:
1. Disconnect the fan cables from the terminal block (if present) or disconnect the fan connector from the GRS-H (FAN63).
2. Unscrew the screws securing the fan to the support brackets
3. Check the condition of the fan, clean it or replace it
4. Reassemble the fan

WARNINGS
WARNING: this symbol indicates danger.
Read the following warnings before installing, connecting or using the device:
• follow instructions precisely when connecting the device.
• always use cables that are suitable for the voltage and current levels indicated in the technical specifications.
• In applications with risk of damage to persons, machines or materials, you MUST install auxiliary alarm devices.
It is advisable to verify frequently that the alarm device is functional even during the normal operation of the equipment.
• DO NOT operate the device in rooms with dangerous (inflammable or explosive) atmosphere.
• During continuous operation, the heat sink can reach up to 100°C, and stays at a high temperature even after the device is turned off due to
thermal inertia; therefore, DO NOT touch it and avoid contact with electrical wires.
• do not work on the power part without first disconnecting electrical power to the panel.
• do not remove the cover when the device is powered!
Installation:
• correctly ground the device using the specific terminal.
• power supply lines must be separated from device input and output lines; always check that the supply voltage matches the voltage indicated
on the device label.
• avoid dust, humidity, corrosive gases and heat sources.
• respect the installation distances between one device and another (to allow for dissipation of generated heat).
• to keep air in movement, we advise you to install a fan near the GRS-H group in the electrical panel containing the GRS-H.
• respect the indicated dissipation curves
Maintenance: at regular intervals, check operation of the cooling fans and clean all air ventilation filters.
• repairs must be done out only by trained and specialized personnel. Cut power to the device before accessing internal parts.
• do not clean the box with solvents derived from hydrocarbons (trichloroethylene, gasoline, etc.). Using such solvents will compromise the
device’s mechanical reliability. Use a clean cloth moistened with ethyl alcohol or water to clean external parts in plastic.
