PS-REL Features at a Glance
- The PS-REL AC Relay Accessory is designed primarily for use with the PS-8R 15-amp Power Sequencer, the PS-PRO 20-amp Power Sequencer, the PowerPort 20-amp Remote AC Controller, the MiniPort-30 Power Relay (30 amps), MiniPort-20 Power Relay (rated 20 amps), and the MiniPort-15 Power Relay (rated 15 amps).
- The PS-REL is simply a small box containing a relay. It functions as a sensor which can close a switch in response to the presence of AC power.
- The PS-REL is needed whenever a PS-8R, PS-PRO, PowerPort or MiniPort (or linked chain of PowerPorts or MiniPorts) must be turned on in response to energizing a switched outlet. This occurs frequently in “Home Theater” installations when a switched outlet on a preamp or receiver, (often activated by a wireless remote device), is to be used to power up a large amount of equipment. It allows multiple 15-amp and 20-amp circuits to be controlled from one device.
