Looking for 60A 60V mosfet

OK, you can stop your search for a mosfet/transistor.

You will all most certainly be better off using a simple mechanical switch to interrupt the signal source to the speed controller.

If you will simply post a link to the ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) you are using (and if the signal source to the ESC is NOT embedded with the ESC, then a link to whatever device you are using as an input signal to the ESC) , I feel confident someone here will be able to help you achieve a satisfactory means to disable the motor w/o attempting to actively switch 3.6kW.

Rather difficult trying to decipher just what it is exactly that you need.
Best approach is sketch up a diagram and others can go from there.

I think i over complicated it, i basically
need a switch that can take on 60v and 60a..
For that im looking for a mosfet as i thought its the best solution.

Then how do you come to the conclusion in your 1st post?

You mean how did i know they dont work ?

Hello,

What speed controller are you using?
Does it have an enable input?
If so, that can likely be used as kill switch.

I am using this vesc.

As far as i know, some vescs do have an enable input, i couldn't find any info for that with my vesc..

As mentioned above, im using a vesc, your idea about the signal input switch is possible as the signal input isn't embedded.
But im looking for that 3.6kw switch because i don't want anything connected to power when the switch is off.. i i have some regulators and leds on the board, so i figured the best way is to just place a mosfet on the main output from the battery, and just "kill" everything with one click.

Im basically trying to copy one of these

You don't need a dedicated enable input. Just interrupt the pwm signal and ensure that without an active pwm signal a the control input the motor controller is in the off state (e.g. by adding a pull-down resistor from the control input to 0V).

If you don't want to buy one of these, why not simply use the transistors that are used in these: NVMFS5C628NL aas stated on the website you linked?

Sorry for the long time to reply,

That actually a great idea, unfortunately i could not find as a through hole, do you think it will be possible to solder it that way ?

 

[Harald Kapp]

These can be soldered manually with by a skilled hand.
If you don't feel skilled enough, here's a selection of comparable MOSFETs.

Thats great.
Thank you all !
You helped me a lot
