Features
Multi-Voltage Coil
The relay accepts 10–30 VAC/DC or 120 VAC control signals. As a result, one model supports numerous commercial control applications without requiring multiple relay types.
10 Amp SPDT Contacts
The RIBU1C features one continuous-duty SPDT relay rated for 10 Amp resistive loads. Consequently, it can control lighting, HVAC equipment, dampers, pumps, and other commercial devices.
Integrated LED Indicator
An onboard LED clearly indicates when the relay coil is energized. Therefore, technicians can quickly verify relay operation during installation and troubleshooting.
Pre-Wired Design
Factory-installed color-coded leads eliminate the need for terminal strip assembly. In addition, installers can complete wiring more quickly while reducing installation errors.
Compact Enclosed Housing
The durable NEMA 1 enclosure protects the relay and wiring while providing convenient hub or surface mounting for commercial installations.
Mounting & Design
The Functional Devices RIBU1C features a compact NEMA 1 plastic enclosure with an integrated ½-inch NPT conduit hub for secure installation. Furthermore, the enclosure supports both hub-mounted and surface-mounted applications while protecting internal components from accidental contact.
Its compact footprint makes the relay ideal for control panels, junction boxes, HVAC equipment, and building automation installations.
