Industrial Applications

1. Temperature Control for Industrial Ovens and Furnaces

Used in a temperature control loop for a small to medium-sized industrial oven. A PLC or temperature controller provides a 24 VDC signal to the G3PE's input to precisely switch power to the oven's heating elements.

Problem Solved

The relay's 15A current rating is sufficient for many heating elements, and its zero-cross function minimizes electromagnetic interference, which is crucial for sensitive control instrumentation nearby. The integrated heat sink and wide operating temperature (-30 to 80°C) ensure reliable operation in hot industrial environments.

2. Plastics Sealing and Packaging Machine Control

Integrated into a packaging machine to control the heating bars that seal plastic films. The relay receives a rapid sequence of ON/OFF signals from the machine's main controller to maintain the precise sealing temperature.

Problem Solved

Solid-state relays have no moving parts, offering a much longer operational life than electromechanical relays in applications with frequent switching. The 12-24 VDC input is a standard control voltage in automation, and the 15A capacity can power multiple sealing bars simultaneously.

3. Commercial Food Service Equipment (Fryers, Griddles)

Controls the main heating element in commercial-grade cooking equipment like deep fryers or flat-top griddles. It precisely cycles the high-power heater to maintain a constant cooking temperature based on a thermostat's 12VDC signal.

Problem Solved

The G3PE-215B provides a safe and reliable method for switching the 240VAC, high-current heating load. Its zero-cross feature prevents large electrical surges that could affect other electronic equipment in a commercial kitchen. The slim, DIN-rail mountable design allows for compact and easy installation inside the equipment's control panel.
