The 8-channel Ethernet Relay Module (B) is an industrial-grade relay module controlled via Ethernet with 8 digital inputs. It supports Modbus RTU/Modbus TCP protocols, features PoE power supply, and comes in an ABS rail-mount case for easy installation and industrial use.

Features

This product offers robust functionality for industrial control equipment, providing fast communication, stability, and reliability. Key features include:

  • Flash-on, flash-off function for timed relay activation.
  • Supports DC 7~36V wide-range power input and PoE power supply.
  • MQTT protocol relay control with Alibaba Cloud MQTT application demo.
  • Optocoupler isolation to prevent high-voltage circuit interference.
  • Dedicated relay driver chip with built-in flyback diode protection.
  • Passive and active digital input support with bi-directional optocoupler isolation and debouncing algorithm.
  • Reverse-proof circuit for accidental connection protection.
  • High-quality relay with contact rating: =10A 250VAC/30VDC.
  • Rail-mounted ABS plastic enclosure for easy installation and safety.
  • LED and network indicators for monitoring MCU status and signal transmission.
