Solid state contactor DCS 750

The newly engineered solid state contactor DCS 750 was designed as a non-wearing and maintenance-free alternative to mechanical contactors for railway applications in DC systems. As no maintenance is required, remarkable cost savings will be achieved in high cycling applications .

The solid state contactor DCS can be used in manifold applications such as a load contactor for railway heaters, conditioning devices etc.
