Products Description

Electrical contacts for solar switches are the core conductive and disconnecting components of photovoltaic switches and relays. Through a composite structure of copper-based stamped parts and silver-based contact materials, they achieve reliable switching of DC and AC circuits and are widely used in various relays in photovoltaic inverters, combiner boxes, and energy storage systems. These contacts, through specific material combinations and molding processes, are adapted to the high-voltage, high-frequency disconnection conditions of photovoltaic systems, ensuring long-term stable circuit operation.

Product Core Structure and Material Selection Logic
 
 

Three-layer composite contact structure

Moving Contact for PCB Photovoltaic PV Relay adopts a metallurgical combination design of a copper substrate layer + silver alloy working layer + nickel barrier layer, preventing the diffusion of copper elements from the substrate to the silver layer and slowing down the increase in contact resistance.

 
 
 

Stainless steel spring integration

Contacts can be pre-riveted to stainless steel stamped springs, utilizing the high elastic modulus of stainless steel to maintain contact closure pressure while preventing stress relaxation of the Movable Contact for Photovoltaic PV Inverter Relay under long-term high temperatures.

 
 
 

Flat contacts and bimetallic rivets

The bimetallic layer of the State Contact Rivet for PV AC Circuit Relay compensates for differences in thermal expansion.
