I'm in the sourcing phase of converting from propane to electric. I'm building a 50amp HERMS system using MRG 40amp SSR's, MRG-1 D4825.
I happened upon several Foxconn 344498-001 rev B heatsinks, looks like this. It's approximately 3x3.5x2.5. My question is, will these provide the necessary cooling without a fan? These are larger than the typical heatsink assigned to 40amp SSR's but without an understanding on how fin structure helps move hot air out and cool air in I'm concerned without a forced air solution the compact fin structure of the computer heat sync would cause the SSR to fail.
I have considered winging it.. I mean, SSR's aren't the most expensive thing but I would prefer not having to rip apart a freshly built system after only a brew or two, or worse lose a beer because of it.
