Key specifications

• Contact current capacity: 16 A
• Input voltage: 230 V AC
• Frequency: 50 Hz
• Mounting: Electrical distribution board (modular)
• Color: Grey
• Certification: CE

How to use

The relay should be installed by a qualified professional within an electrical distribution board. Once mounted on the standard rail, the input and output wiring must be connected according to the provided technical diagram. The device functions by receiving a signal from a push-button, which triggers the relay to close the contact for a predetermined time, keeping the lights active before automatically switching them off.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the total load of the lighting circuit does not exceed the 16A capacity.
• Verify that the supply voltage matches the 230V AC requirement.
• Check available space in your distribution board for a modular device.
• Confirm compatibility with existing push-button wiring configurations.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, ensure that the relay is installed in a dry, dust-free environment within the distribution board. Regularly inspect the electrical connections to ensure they remain tight and free from oxidation.
