About this item

  • Solid state relay for fast response and high vibration resistance
  • 4,000V of optical isolation for insulating the circuits
  • LS TTL compatible
  • Zero-voltage switching to reduce arcing and extend the life of the device
  • UL Recognized for safety, CSA and CE certified for quality assurance


This Opto 22 DC60MP solid state relay provides faster response time than an electromechanical relay and resists vibration. The diode has an optical isolation of 4,000V for insulating the circuits, and the device has a voltage rating of 60 VDC and a current rating of 3 amp. It has Low-power Schottky transistor-transistor logic (LS TTL) for compatibility. It has zero-voltage switching to reduce arcing and extend the life of the device. The MP series has the maximum allowed control signal at 24 VDC and is UL Recognized for safety, CSA and CE certified for quality assurance.

Relay switches (also called an electrical relay or an electrical relay switch) use a small amount of power to control a larger source of power connected to electrical devices such as car motors, computers, and lighting installations. A basic relay switch has a control circuit with an electromagnetic coil and a load circuit with contacts and a lever. When current flows into the relay switch, it moves through the coil and a magnetic field is created, which causes the lever in the load circuit to move between contacts, either turning the device on or off. In a normally open (NO) relay switch, when power is supplied to the relay, the load circuit is closed and the power source connected to the relay is turned on. In a normally closed (NC) relay switch, when power is supplied to the relay, the load circuit is open and the power source connected to the relay is turned off. In other types of relay switches, non-moving parts such as transistors or semiconductors can be used as the control circuit to operate the switching mechanism. Relay switches can be controlled with an external switch, such as a light switch, or they can be connected to an automatically switched power source, such as a car ignition. One relay can operate multiple switches, and multiple relays can be operated with a single switch, with each relay operating independently from the other relays in the system.

Opto 22 manufactures controllers for automating equipment, input/output (I/O) systems, solid-state relays, and software products that link electric, mechanical, and electronic devices to networks and computers. The company, founded in 1974, is headquartered in Temecula, CA.

I needed an SSR for my e-Bike to get the integrated lights working. The DC60MP worked perfect for my needs. As far as the reliability - 100% rock solid for me. What I will say, however, is if you run *any* component out of spec - caveat emptor. THe DC60MP is rated at 3A up to a max of 60V. If you exceed either (or both) of these parameters and the part fails, then that's not a problem of the part but rather of the application. At the very least one should design in current protection to your circuit (perhaps with a simple polyfuse) to protect whatever is being powered as well as the DC60MP.

I bought three, so far two needs replacement. They simply go bad.I bought a 3 Amp SSR to operate a 2 Amp LED lamp. So am not overloading it.One of the relays shorted after three weeks of operation, the second is now gone as well.I am switching to another brand.

This is just what I was looking for and it worked as expected like most of the other Opto22 products I own.
