Phidgets Large Heatsink for SSR

• Phidgets Large Heatsink for SSR
• Effectively manages heat from SSRs
• Prevents damage to high-current SSRs
• Aligns with ‘Hockey Puck’ style SSRs
• Includes mounting screws for ease
• Advises thermal pad for heat transfer

The Phidgets Large Heatsink for SSR is designed to effectively manage the heat generated by medium and high current solid-state relays (SSRs) during operation. This heatsink is essential for preventing damage and ensuring the longevity of SSRs, particularly when they are used at their maximum specifications. It is specifically recommended for use with relays that switch loads of up to 75A, providing a reliable solution for heat dissipation.

The heatsink is compatible with standard ‘Hockey Puck’ style SSRs, featuring mounting holes that align perfectly for easy installation. This compatibility ensures that the heatsink can be securely attached to the relay, optimizing the thermal management process. Additionally, mounting screws are included to facilitate the installation process, ensuring a stable and efficient setup.

For optimal performance, it is advised to use a thermal pad between the relay and the heatsink, which aids in the effective transfer of heat away from the SSR. In applications requiring very high performance, supplementary air cooling may also be necessary to maintain the desired operating temperature.
