Train Tech RL1 Twin Channel Relay Controller for DC/DCC

Multi Scale

This is a twin channel Relay controller which can switch high power loads using control signals from Track Sensors, Mimic Switches, Sensor Signals or DCC accessory commands.

Example applications include:

Start a coal loading conveyor when the train is in position
Remote control of models from the DCC controller
Activate a turntable when a train passes a Track Sensor
Boost Track Sensor outputs to control motors, solenoids, lamps etc.
Automatic Train Control (see current brochure for more info)

The RL1 works on analogue or digital layouts and is powered directly by DCC or 12-16 Volts smooth DC. When on digital the relays can also be controlled by DCC accessory addresses which are easily set up using One-Touch DCC. Relays are a great way to switch on and off relatively high power devices such as motors and solenoids because they act like a switch contact and so are safely electrically isolated from other signals. The Relay Controller incorporates two separate relays, each with single pole changeover contacts which can switch up to 3 amps at 24 volts AC or DC, so can be used to control DC or AC models, including battery models, Faller kits, etc.
