Do solid state AC relays work with lesser voltages?

I have a solid state relay which says on the diagram "240V-480V". I need to use it to switch a 120v motor.

Now, if it had JUST said 480V, then I'd just take it as a maximum. But this implies that 240V is a recommended minimum, doesn't it? I mean if 480v is the maximum then you wouldn't bother to say 317v or 240v or 120v or 50v was also possible.

The seller did describe it as 24-480v. (24, not 240 as stated on the device). Most of what's written on the device is Chinese anyways, a typo would not be unheard of.

OK to use on 120v??

I think it's okay. if you need something to help settle your mind, how about the fact that AC spends some time at all voltages from zero to peak.

a triac - also an optotriac - doesn't care about the voltage you switch as long as it is within safe limits (according to data sheet; voltage and current).

You can even switch 6VAC with it or wire two of them in series (making an AND function).

Crydon 480v SSRs (fairly typical examples) are speced 46-480v AC, so no problem id say.

The problem is whether the current flowing into the input is high enough to trigger it.

THat's more the drive circuit's responsibility isn't it?
