8.8 Benefits of IDEC SmartRelay
IDEC SmartRelay is a particularly useful feature
•
For replacing auxiliary switchgear with the integrated
IDEC SmartRelay functions
•
For saving wiring and installation work - because IDEC
SmartRelay keeps the wiring "in its head".
•
For reducing space requirements for components in the
control cabinet/distribution box. A smaller control cabinet/
distribution box may provide sufficient space.
•
For adding or changing functions, without having to install
additional switchgear or change the wiring.
•
For offering your customers new, additional functions for
domestic and commercial housing installations. Exam-
ples:
-
Domestic security systems: IDEC SmartRelay switch-
es on a lamp at regular intervals or opens and closes
the shutters while you are on holiday.
-
Central heating: IDEC SmartRelay runs the circulation
pump only when water or heating is actually required.
-
Refrigerating systems: IDEC SmartRelay can defrost
refrigerating systems at regular intervals to save ener-
gy costs.
-
You can illuminate aquaria and terraria on a time-de-
pendent basis.
Last not least you can:
•
Use commonly available switches and pushbuttons,
which makes it easy to install a domestic system.
•
Connect IDEC SmartRelay directly to your domestic in-
stallation; the integrated power supply makes it possible.
