Description
Introduction
The EAE RCU0808 Room Control Unit is an all-in-one KNX device engineered to handle multiple room automation functions through a single compact interface. Equipped with 8 independent 16A relay outputs and 8 digital inputs, it eliminates the need for multiple dedicated modules within individual room installations. This device is part of our KNX Actuators products range.
Operating entirely without an external auxiliary power supply, the RCU0808 switches resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads according to standard EN 60669. It delivers flexible control across lighting circuits, AC/DC blinds, and fan coil units with 2-point or 3-point valve setups.
Key Features
- 8 independent 16A relay outputs for versatile load control
- 8 digital inputs for dry contact push buttons and switches
- Integrated fan coil control for 2-point and 3-point valve configurations
- AC and DC blind drive control modes
- Built-in logic capabilities: Staircase, External logic, Priority, Threshold, Operating hour, and Sweep
- Bus-powered operation requiring no external power supply
- Standard compliance certified to EN 60669
Benefits
- Consolidates switching for lighting, AC/DC blinds, and fan coil units into a single KNX module.
- Eliminates the requirement for an external power supply, simplifying electrical enclosure layout.
- Provides 8 independent dry contact inputs supporting switches, dimming, blind drive control, scene selection, and pulse counting.
- Ensures reliable switching for resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads per EN 60669 standards.
- Includes advanced built-in output logic for operating hour tracking, staircase lighting, sweep, threshold, and priority control.
Technical Specifications
Applications
- Integrated room automation in commercial and residential properties covering lighting and blind control.
- HVAC room control involving 2-point or 3-point motorized fan coil valves.
- Connecting conventional push buttons, switches, and pulse counters directly to the KNX system via digital inputs.
Installation Notes
- Wire dry contacts directly to the 8 dedicated digital input channels on the unit.
- Ensure all switched switching loads fall within EN 60669 parameters for resistive, capacitive, and inductive operation.
- Do not connect an external power supply unit, as the device operates without one.
Developer Resources
- Consult the official EAE RCU0808 database file in ETS to configure input operating modes, logic functions, and output channel assignment.
