5 Channel SSR Relay with Stable Fuse

Description

What it is

The solid state relay (SSR) is an electronic device that allows the control of current flow in a circuit without the use of mechanical contacts. In this specific case, it is a 5-channel SSR, with 2 channels featuring a stable fuse.

Features

• 5 channels of control
• 2 channels with stable fuse
• Input voltage: 240 V
• Switching current: 2 A
• SKU: ARD0011181
• Price: 6.86 €

What it is for

The 5-channel solid state relay (SSR) for 240V is ideal for controlling electrical devices with a voltage of 240 V and a current up to 2 A. It can be used in Arduino projects to automate the turning on and off of lights, motors, or other devices. Thanks to its ability to handle high currents, it is particularly suitable for applications requiring precise and reliable current control.
