Thread: Solid state relay for ON/OFF VFD

Hi guys,
I am thinking of using this solid state relay to control the motor ON/OFF signal of the Chinese VFD. Also maybe to control the Enable on each of the servos.
RS part 720-3956
I use 24Vdc for the control side, and I've tried this SSR with a simple LED and it switches on/off fine.
My question is: this SSR is rated at a maximum 100mA for the load side and I have no idea what the load would be on the ON/OFF contacts of the VDF or for that matter the servo Enable, I suspect very low. Do you think this would work?
Consequently I suppose these signal contacts would be isolated from any VDF/driver return surge on disconnect and a diode on the load side may not be necessary?
Thanks for your advice.
Edward
