Hyannis, MA, November 25, 2024 –HBControls, a leading industrial electronics manufacturer and specialist in solid-state relays, has announced the launch of its new HBC-xZ series of single-phase and three-phase solid-state contactors.
This new line complements HBControls’ existing portfolio of solid-state relay assemblies and power controllers, offering compact, UL Listed products with integrated DIN-mount heat sinks.
“The HBC-xZ series significantly enhances our ability to meet the industrial market’s demands,” said Doug Sherman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at HBControls. “With single and three-phase load current ratings up to 85A per phase, these contactors are housed in dimensions more than 30% smaller than comparably rated solid-state relay and heat sink assemblies.”
Sherman also highlighted the importance of the product’s cULus Listing: “Additionally, the HBC-xZ series is cULus Listed, offering distinct advantages over most solid-state relay assemblies, which are typically cURus Recognized. The cULus Listed designation signifies that these products are complete, stand-alone units that have undergone rigorous testing and meet higher safety standards. This certification simplifies integration into UL Listed panels or systems, saving customers valuable time and money.”
Additional features and benefits of the HBC-xZ series include:
· Single-phase ratings up to 85 amps and three-phase ratings up to 65 amps per phase, with two or three-pole switching options
· Integrated output overvoltage transient protection
· Rated for line voltages between 42Vac and 600Vac
· AC, DC, or AC/DC input voltage ranges, with LED input status indicators
· Designed to comply with EN/IEC60947-4-2, EN/IEC60947-4-3, EN/IEC62314, UL508, and CSA 22-2 No. 14-13
· 100 kA short circuit current rating according to UL508
· IP20 touch-safe housing
HBControls continues to expand its innovative solid-state solutions to meet the evolving needs of industrial applications. To learn more about the HBC-xZ series or other products, visit HBControls.com or contact their sales team.
