Identification 1. Chapter 1 IDENTIFICATION 1.1 GENERAL PRESENTATION 7300S series solid state contactors control the electrical power to three-phase industrial loads such as low temperature coefficient and short wave infrared elements. Standard ratings in the series range from 16 A to 160 A, at voltages from 200 V to 500 V. 7300S series solid state contactors comprise three channels, controlled by thyristors.
