Product Overview
The 8-Channel Power Controller is an automation device designed for centralized management and remote control of multiple electrical appliances. It features eight independent power output channels, with each channel capable of being switched individually. This enables timed, delayed, linked, or remote control of various equipment (such as lights, projectors, motorized screens, displays, etc.). It serves as a core component for centralized power management in applications including smart homes, office buildings, conference rooms, exhibition halls, and broadcast systems.
Core Features
8 Independent Channels: Provides eight independent relay output channels, allowing for individual on/off control of each circuit without interference.
Multiple Control Methods:
Remote Control: Supports remote network/serial communication via interfaces including RS-232, RS-485, TCP/IP (Ethernet)
Local Control: Certain models feature physical push-buttons for manual operation.
Scenario-based Linkage: Can be integrated into a central control system and linked with sensors, door contacts, timers, etc., to automate scenarios (e.g., "One-Touch All On/Off," "Meeting Mode").
Status Feedback: Provides real-time feedback on the switch status of each channel to the host controller, facilitating system monitoring.
Sequential Power Management: Supports precise timing control for powering different channels on/off in sequence, preventing high inrush currents caused by simultaneous startup of all connected devices.
Safety Protection: Typically incorporates safety mechanisms such as over-current protection, over-voltage protection, and lightning/surge protection.
Technical Parameters
Output Channels: 8
Output Type: Relay (Dry Contact) output
Load Capacity per Channel: Typically 10A - 30A (Resistive Load),
Control Interfaces: RS-232, RS-485, TCP/IP (RJ45), optional Wi-Fi, etc.
Operating Voltage: AC 220V / 50Hz or DC 24V (Model dependent)
Typical Application Scenarios
Smart Conference Rooms: Centralized control of power for projectors, screens, lighting, and audio equipment, enabling "One-Touch Meeting Mode."
Building Automation: Scheduled switching for lighting in public areas like corridors and lobbies.
Smart Homes: Acts as a central hub for home energy management, controlling power to various devices in living rooms, home theaters, etc.
Security Systems: Provides remote reboot capability for cameras, alarm systems, and other security devices.
Industrial Control: Used to control power for small motors, solenoid valves, and other industrial equipment.
