Carpinteria, California, November 7, 2024 – Rincon Power proudly announces the release of the RXC61, an enhanced addition to its industry-leading contactor lineup. Designed with a 1,500 V rating and 600 A continuous duty capacity, the RXC61 raises the standard for power switching in high-voltage environments, including renewable energy systems, EV fast charging, and industrial machinery.
With advanced bi-directional capability, the RXC61 enables safe and efficient power switching, regardless of the direction of current flow, allowing flexibility in applications such as battery storage and energy recovery. Like its predecessor, the RXC60, the RXC61 integrates Rincon Power’s proprietary zero back EMF dual-coil economizer, eliminating control circuit design complexities and reducing overall system costs.
The RXC61 also benefits from external coil construction, which minimizes risks associated with internal outgassing, providing reliable, long-term contact integrity. Its ruggedized, hermetically sealed ceramic enclosure ensures optimal performance in harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, dust, and moisture, making it well-suited for critical power applications.
The RXC61’s patent-pending DPST auxiliary feedback system provides reliable and accurate feedback on contact status, improving safety and reliability. Its optional bottom-mount or chassis-mount configurations provides design flexibility, simplifies integration and reduces installation time.
“With the RXC61, we’ve built upon the proven foundation of the RXC60 to meet evolving industry demands for even higher voltage tolerance,” said Markus Beck, VP of Sales at Rincon Power. “This launch reflects our commitment to delivering durable, innovative solutions that address the needs of modern high-voltage applications.”
