IR relay box
Overview.
The A-2 IR relay box is a DIN-rail mountable
module that contains 4 SPDT (single-pole doublethrow) relays, each rated to switch a maximum of
10 Amps at 250 Volts.
The A-2 operates from 12 Volts DC. The power
supply you use must comply with local electrical
safety regulations and be capable of supplying up
to 200mA. It is permissible for this power supply to
be shared with other equipment in your system.
Four pre-defined operations are available for each
relay – On, Off, Momentary and Toggle.
An A-2 relay box may be assigned an address from
0 to 15 to allow multiple units to be connected to
the same control bus and controlled independently.
