50-NP-AC5 Solid State NistorPac

50-NP-AC5 Solid State NistorPac is a packaged Teccor alternistor that boosts switching capability of reed switch devices to 5 amps AC. If you are looking for a simple, compact , affordable way to protect reed switch devices or other pilot load switching devices from large loads this is it. NistorPacs can switch solenoid valves, small pumps, motor starters, alarms or any other AC loads up to 5 amps. If you already have integrated circuitry and need to add a high level or low level cut off or alarm, the NistorPac is an excellent solution.

The NistorPac has no shared terminals , a built in heat sink, and built in hold downs making it a quick, simple, convenient, low cost control solution. Teccor’s alternistor is specifically designed for applications that switch highly inductive loads. A special chip offers the same performance as two thyristors(SCRs) wired inverse parallel (back-to-back), providing better turn-off behavior than a standard triac. This new chip construction provides two electrically separate SCR structures, providing enhanced dv/dt characteristics while retaining the advantages of a single-chip device. The NistorPac works in 24 – 240 Volts AC.
