Description

The PD2401 is an AC Solid State Switch using optical

coupling with dual power SCR outputs to produce an

alternative to optocoupler and Triac circuits. The

PD2401 switches are robust enough to provide a

blocking voltage of up to 500VP and max surge

current rating of 20A. In addition, tightly controlled

zero-cross circuitry ensures switching of AC loads

without the generation of transients. The input and

output circuits are optically coupled to provide

3750Vrms of isolation and noise immunity between

control and load circuits. As a result the PD2401

is well suited for industrial environments where

electromagnetic interference would disrupt the

operation of electromechanical relays.
