Inline switch 1-channel - 5 V relay module, up to 220 V / 10 A
This goes with it
Description
Product Overview
- Intermediate switch for controlling loads via microcontroller outputs
- Switches up to 220 V AC / 10 A alternating current
- Relay module with galvanic isolation between the control voltage and the load
- Single-channel version with digital input signal control
- 5 V DC operating voltage for the control signal
- Normally open switch contact for a safe default state
Product Description
This relay module connects the digital outputs of microcontrollers to AC consumers such as lamps or motors. The switching relay is controlled via a simple digital signal (Low/High) and switches the galvanically isolated load in the circuit on or off.
The galvanic isolation between the control side and the load side provides essential protection. The microcontroller and the 220 V installation are independent of one another, so faults in one circuit cannot damage the other. The normally open contact ensures safety when the module is de-energized, as the load remains automatically switched off.
Typical applications include remote switching of laboratory lights, automatic shutdown of groups of consumers using timers, or remote control of household appliances via a test setup. With a maximum switching load of 10 A, many everyday consumers can be controlled.
The 5 V DC operating voltage is supplied via the microcontroller pin or a separate 5 V source; a safe power supply in the 220 V AC range is additionally required for the circuit of the load being switched. These tasks and installation in existing circuits must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
Safety Notice
This module is intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes and is not intended for installation in household electrical circuits. A qualified electrician is required for all connections in the 220 V range. Before commissioning, particularly if there is any uncertainty regarding the power supply or switching behavior, a qualified electrician should be consulted.
