The RM1D series of dc switching solid-state relays is designed for applications that demand critical response times and rapid cycling. The relays are well-suited for use in off-grid and renewable energy systems that run off batteries, as well as dc heaters, solenoids, valves, fans and other equipment that requires dc switching. Their low power dissipation output MOSFET creates excellent thermal performance, which reduces the size or even eliminates the need for a heat sink. The series uses direct copper bonding (DCB) and a housing free of any molding mass to increase reliability.
