RGC2A..10.. RGC3A..10.. Additional variants to the 3-Phase Solid State Contactor series RGC2A..10.. RGC3A..10.. Carlo Gavazzi EEMEA Matteo Ferraro November, 2015 1
RGC2A..10.. RGC3A..10.. Introduction Why these new variants ? • To offer a more compact solution for small current ratings both for resistive loads as well as motor loads • To offer VDE certification for these additional variants due to their intended use in equipment that need to be certified according to VDE requirements Expectations • The RGC2..10 and RGC3..10 rated 10 AAC for resistive loads and 5 AAC for motor loads provide cost and space savings compared to the RGC2A and RGC3A products that were available to date • This will enable us to position our solutions better vs. competition bringing about new sales opportunities Carlo Gavazzi EEMEA Matteo Ferraro November, 2015 2

RGC2A..10.. RGC3A..10.. Features and Benefits CUSTOMER ISSUE : OUR SOLUTION: ACHIEVED BENEFITS: Need 1 component ready to use The RGC2A, RGC3A series is • Less installation time (wiring of a solution for 3-phase loads in a dedicated for switching of 3 phase single control unit instead of 3x 1- compact platform loads. The solutions are provided with phase units) integrated heatsink and hence are • No need to calculate and source ready for use as provided. The RGC..10 heatsink external heatsink. Current variant allows easy mounting on chassis ratings are specified for each by removal of the DIN clip ambient temperature • Effective use of panel space CUSTOMER ISSUE : OUR SOLUTION: ACHIEVED BENEFITS: Need reliable solution to replace The RGC2, RGC3 series are fully solid • Longer lifetime, less downtimes mechanical contactors and hence state and so do not have lifetime issues • Reliable solution guarantee of a long lifetime associated with arcing of mechanical • Integrated varistor on output and contacts. The series is additionally hence no need for additional protected with varistors on the output external components to conform to against voltage surges surge immunity tests CUSTOMER ISSUE : OUR SOLUTION: ACHIEVED BENEFITS: Need a solution that conforms to The RGC..10 is VDE certified both for • Ease of certification process VDE requirements since the end switching of motor loads as well as for equipment need to conform to VDE DIN EN 60335-1 which is the standard requirements that allows the product to be used in household appliances.

RGC2A..10.. RGC3A..10.. Relevant applications Customer issue Switching of 3-phase compressors (400 VAC, 4.8 AAC) with a solid state solution. Solution needs to provide panel space savings and be VDE certified Our Solution RGC3A60A10KKES322 which is rated 5 AAC for motor loads. Integrated varistor ensures protection against over- voltages. The product dimensions are very compact with a width of only 54mm vs. customer existent solution of 105mm. The S322 suffix represent a unit which is shipped without DIN clip to facilitate installation and hence mounting on chassis. Benefits - Compact dimensions allowing panel space savings - VDE certification eases customer certification process - Reliable operation with a fully solid state solution Carlo Gavazzi EEMEA Matteo Ferraro November, 2015 9
