6. Selection Recommendations
Load Type: Choose zero-crossing SSRs (SR489 series) for resistive loads; select random-phase SSRs for inductive loads.
Voltage Match: Ensure output voltage matches system requirements (240V AC vs. 480V AC alternatives).
Cooling: Use heat sink for continuous 40A operation in ambient temperatures >30°C.
7. Installation & Maintenance Notes
Wiring: Use 10AWG wires for 40A loads; torque terminals to 0.5 N·m.
Heat Management: Maintain 10mm clearance around the SSR for airflow.
Testing: Verify input voltage before energizing; use a multimeter to check output continuity.
