Each switch can be controlled independently using a gateway and , or a and the software, by connecting them to Output1 and Output 2 on the v.4 or v.5 Omnimeter.
This is a power cord that switches 120 VAC (up to 15 amps) with a DC control voltage of 3 VDC @ 3mA to 12 VDC @ 30 mA. This device gives you the capability to turn your power on/off remotely using a very tiny control voltage! It is big enough to control major loads: pumps, lights, appliances, etc.
It's Safe:
- 3kV optical isolation – eliminates shock hazard.
- Relay hysteresis – prevents relay chatter.
- De-bounce protection – extends contact life.
- LEDs – verify input voltage and switch state.
- No exposed 120 VAC voltages and no dangerous 120 VAC wiring required.
- Plugs into standard American 120 VAC 3-prong household outlets, power strips, and extension cords.
- Eliminates the exposure of hazardous voltages in DIY projects, classrooms, and on development work benches.
- No special 120 VAC wiring when deploying new products and custom solutions.
- Can be installed by non-technical users.
- 5300 Vrms isolation from the 120 VAC circuit.
- A 12A thermal safety circuit breaker switch prevents overloads and adds supplemental protection.
- A large 3600W MOV clamps surges for clean power
It's Convenient:
- Easily inserts between power source and corded electrical devices.
- Switches up to 15 amps with a control signal as low as 3vdc at 3ma. Ideal for use with battery operated controllers or micro controllers.
- Connects directly to an Arduino or other MCU digital pin without the need for driver transistor or buffer circuit.
- Two-wire voltage control signal connects to terminal block (30-14 AWG).
- LED indicator shows status of control signal.
- Units are "stackable" and easily mount with two screws.
- Connect input plug to wall outlet or power strip.
- Connect output receptacle to a single powered device or up to 4 powered devices.
- Output devices may be 3-prong or 2-prong appliances or lights.
- Convenient safety ground connection available for grounding external control circuit.
