Description
Introduction
The EAE RCU1200 Room Control Unit is a versatile, all-in-one KNX actuator designed to manage room automation tasks from a single hardware device. Featuring 12 independent 16A relay outputs, it manages lighting loads, AC/DC blinds, and fan coil units effectively, streamlining panel layout and system topology. This device is part of our KNX system devices range.

Engineered to operate directly off the KNX bus, the unit requires no external auxiliary power supply. It provides reliable switching for resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads according to the EN 60669 standard, making it an excellent choice for commercial, hospitality, and high-end residential KNX projects.
Key Features
- 12 x 16A relay outputs for multi-purpose load switching.
- Integrated AC/DC blind control and shading automation functionality.
- Fan control and Fan Coil Unit management supporting 2-point and 3-point valves.
- Operates strictly via KNX bus power without external power supply needs.
- Compliant with EN 60669 load switching specifications.
- Integrated functional modules: Staircase timing, External logic, Priority control, Threshold monitoring, Sweep, and Operating hour tracking.
Benefits
- Consolidates control over room lighting, AC/DC shading, and fan coil valves into a single compact 12-output unit.
- Eliminates the requirement for an auxiliary external power supply, reducing wiring complexity and power distribution requirements.
- Complies with EN 60669 standard for switching across resistive, capacitive, and inductive load types.
- Supports both 2-point and 3-point valve configurations for flexible fan coil HVAC integration.
- Includes embedded logic and timing functions directly on the hardware, eliminating the need for separate standalone logic modules.
Technical Specifications
Applications
- Hotel guest room automation requiring centralized control of room lighting, motorized blinds, and fan coil HVAC units.
- Commercial office space zone control for organized light switching, shading schedules, and threshold-based HVAC management.
- Residential KNX installations seeking a multi-channel actuator solution to manage mixed electrical loads from a single distribution panel.
Installation Notes
- Ensure all connected electrical loads comply with EN 60669 requirements and do not exceed the 16A per channel rating.
- Connect directly to the KNX bus line using standard KNX bus connectors; no additional auxiliary power unit is required.
- Verify channel assignments in ETS prior to wiring to correctly distinguish between standard switching loads, blind drives, and fan coil valve outputs.
