PMP SERIES

PANEL MOUNT PROPORTIONAL CONTROL SOLID STATE RELAYS

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

ORDERING OPTIONS 

WIRING DIAGRAM

Crydom PMP Series Solid State Relays were developed to offer precise control of the power delivered to an AC load in a standard 22.5 mm industrial package. Quick and easy installation is coupled with low drive 

power requirements and efficient, reliable power SCR output. This compact new design offers up to 90 A

RMS

 in ambient temperatures of 40ºC.

Be sure to visit the product series datasheet available at the Sensata website to complement this information. If you have questions or need additional information please contact Tech Support. Please read all 

instructions before using your Proportional Control Solid State Relay (SSR)

INSTALLATION GUIDE

Choose one of the two mounting options and follow the instructions.

Mounting on Heat Sink

•  Select adequate heat sink (see thermal derating curves in product series’ 

datasheet).

•  Be sure to use a thermal pad or thermal compound (0.006-0.008 in layer 

thickness recommended) between the SSR and the selected heat sink.

•  SSR housing mounting holes have a diameter of 0.341 in (8.66 mm). 

Two screws are needed to mount the SSR onto a heat sink (See fig.1). 

Mounting screws are sold separately as HK8 and are suitable for all 

Crydom heat sinks.

•  Otherwise, recommended screw size is 8-32 (socket) using an allen 

wrench (9/64 in) for the installation. Choose screw length considering 

mounting surface hole depth and SSR baseplate thickness of 0.125 in 

(3.2 mm).

•  Before applying full torque tighten down both screws until they contact the baseplate.

•  Then, tighten them to 20 lb-in (2.2 Nm) min.

•  For optimal thermal performance heat sink fins should be oriented vertically to promote natural 

convection airflow.

Mounting on Panel

•  Locate the panel section on which the SSR will be mounted. Panel mount surface must provide 

adequate heat sinking capability, uncoated, clean, flat (0.004 in/in recommended) and preferably 

aluminum.

•  Be sure to use a thermal pad or thermal compound (0.006-0.008 in layer thickness recommended) 

between the SSR and the panel.

•  SSR housing mounting slots have a diameter of 0.341 in (8.66 mm). Two screws are needed (not 

included) to mount the SSR onto a panel. Mounting screws are sold separately as HK8. Otherwise, 

recommended screw size is 8-32 (socket) using allen wrench (9/64 in) for the installation. Choose 

screw length considering the mounting surface and that the SSR baseplate thickness is 0.125 in 

(3.2 mm).

•  Before applying full torque tighten down both screws until they contact the baseplate. Then, tighten 

them to 20 lb-in (2.2 Nm) min.
