RCB-2 Controller

RCB-2 Controller

DESCRIPTION RCB-2 is a small motor controller for Smarthouse applications. It is used in conjunction with single phase motors rated 120VAC, 5 Amps maximum and features a low voltage, 3 wire control, set up to be operated by momentary switches, pushbuttons or relay contacts. The main advantage of the motors controlled by RCB-2 is that they can be run from multiple locations by simply paralleling the input controls. Control computers or security systems can interface with RCB-2 using 'A' Form dry contacts rated 0.1 Amps min.; one contact for each direction. RCB-2 system is programmable by jumper to control either light loads (i.e. Vertical blinds) or heavier loads (i.e. Drapes). Momentary control switches allow the motor to be set to be jogged or to run continuously. Continuous operation is achieved by maintaining pressure on the control switch for approximately 1/2 second. This causes the logic to latch in and as a result the motor continues to run. The motor then can be stopped at any time by depressing the control switch momentarily. Otherwise, the motor will run until the end of the track where the limit switch (built usually into the drive), turns the motor off. Additionally, the Motor Current Sensing circuit de-energizes relays at the end of motor run. The RCB-2 is housed in a steel enclosure(Board only is also available when ordering, please see ordering selection at: http://www.skymatic.com/Ordering_rcb.pdf). External wiring should be done according to the Electrical Code, by qualified personnel only.
