Expansion Boxes
The Expansion Boxes are supplied using the mains electrical supply. The Expansion Boxes communicate
with the system’s Main Controller via RS485 through low voltage (24Vdc) communication cables (Auto-
mation and Safety). Multiple Expansion Boxes can be used in one EDGE system. These Expansion
Boxes are designed to accommodate various electronic cards (Expansion Plug-in Modules), each
designed for different monitoring/control applications. Two different Expansion Boxes are available: 6-
Slot Expansion Box and 3-Slot Expansion Box. These two Expansion Boxes are very similar in construc-
tion and differ only in terms of enclosure size, number of electronic card modules they can accommodate
(6 Expansion Plug-in Modules for the 6-Slot, 3 Expansion Plug-in Modules for the 3-Slot).
Furthermore, both Expansion Boxes can accommodate up to 4 Solid State Relay modules (EDGE Varia-
ble Outputs) mounted on a heat sink in the back of the Expansion Box enclosure.
Items Description
