Relay Output Unit for aeration control
The iGRAIN Relay Output Unit is a control module designed for automatic control of aeration and head space ventilation fans.
The unit is controlled from the iGRAIN Dashboard Manager or control board via RS485 MODBUS. Each unit has 8 relays with NO (Normally Open) and NC (Normally Closed) relay contacts and the status of each relay is indicated with a diode.
