Definition
A solid state relay (SSR) can perform many tasks that an electromechanical relay
(EMR) can perform� The SSR differs in that it has no moving mechanical parts� It is
essentially an electronic device that relies on the electrical and optical properties of
semiconductors to achieve its isolation and switching function�
Principle of Operation
SSRs are similar to electromechanical relays, in that both use a control circuit and a
separate circuit for switching the load� When voltage is applied to the input of the SSR,
the relay is energized by a light emitting diode� The light from the diode is beamed
into a light sensitive semiconductor which conditions the control circuit to turn on the
output solid state switch� In the case of zero voltage crossover relays, the output solid
state switch is turned on at the zero crossing of AC voltage� Removal of the input
power disables the control circuit and the solid state switch also turns off when the
load current passes through the zero point of its cycle� Zero cross is only applied to AC
switching circuits� DC switching circuits operate at an instant on/off rate�
Advantages
When used correctly in the intended application, the SSR provides many of the
characteristics that are often difficult to find in the EMR: a high degree of reliability,
long service life, significantly reduced electromagnetic interference, fast response
and high vibration resistance are significant benefits of the SSR� The SSR has
no moving parts to wear out or arcing contacts to deteriorate, which are often the
primary cause of failure with an EMR�
