Why have a DIN rail mountable model of modules? 
Many modern automation and security panels are now DIN rail mountable (rather than rack mounted). Because our  DualTimer and RelayPair modules are also available as boxed DIN rail mountable units, (as well as surface mountable) they are ready to work with these new systems.

WHAT'S NEW ARTICLES

PCB Based RelayPair Modules Can now be Broken into 2 Individual Modules
June  2009
ULTRAsmart now packages its PCB based RelayPair modules so that they can be snapped in half to create 2 individual modules.

"The RelayPair modules are now even more flexible. Use then as a pair, or break off an individual module if that is all that is needed", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

And according to Mr Jarvis, buying individual modules this way and breaking one off when needed saves on packaging and storage space.

 

New Boxed DIN rail or Surface Mountable models of the DualTimer and RelayPair Modules Released
August  2008
ULTRAsmart has released boxed models of its RelayPair and DualTimer modules.

"Our new boxed models can be mounted on a standard DIN rail or surface mounted using 4mm diameter screws", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

"Customers have been asking for boxed models. And by making our modules DIN rail mountable (as well as the standard surface mountable), we believe these units are looking to the future of automation and security systems", said David Jarvis.

  • Dimensions - 94 (DIN) or 104 (Surface) mm (L) x 36 mm (W) x 58 mm (H)
  • DualTimer - separate 12v DC (Dualtimer12d - DT12DC8/03d) and 24 v DC (DualTimer24d - DT24DC8/03d) models
  • RelayPair - separate 12v DC (RelayPair12d - RP12DC8/03d) and 24 v DC (RelayPair24 - RP24DC8/03) models

 

New RelayPair Card / Module Released
July  2008
ULTRAsmart has released a new module - the RelayPair PCB.

"All the functionality of our Basic Relay module, but with the addition of a relay ON LED - and they come in pairs so it's easier to setup if you need more than one module", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

"It's also the same PCB size as the new version 3 DualTimer, making the appearance of the finished product so much neater when both units are used", said David Jarvis.

  • Dimensions - 87mm (L) x 33mm (W) x 24mm (H)
  • Separate 12v DC (RelayPair12 - RP12DC8/03) and 24 v DC (RelayPair24 - RP24DC8/03) models
  • Same PCB size as the DualTimer version 3 module

 

New Version 3 Dual Timer Card / Module Released
July  2008
ULTRAsmart has released its new version 3 Dual Timer PCB.

"What was a great unit is now even better", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

"We kept the amazing OMRON G5LE-14  power relay, the focus on ease of use by concentrating on two of the most commonly used timer modes (Delay, and Time Out), and a proven design resulting in mechanical and electronic stability", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

The main improvements include:

  • Addition of a negative trigger (0 v DC), to compliment the existing positive trigger (3-24v DC)
  • Relay On LED
  • Weak Pullup (for use with negative trigger), and PullDown (for use with positive trigger)

Changes include:

  • Dimensions - 87mm (L) x 33mm (W) x 24mm (H)
  • Separate 12v DC (Dualtimer12 - DT12DC8/03) and 24 v DC (DualTimer24 - DT24DC8/03) models

 

Instructions for Setting up Dual Timer as a DOTL Alarm
Nov  2006
ULTRAsmart now includes instructions for setting up its Dual Timer  as a Door Open Too Long (DOTL) alarm.

"We discovered that a significant number of our DualTimers were being set up as DOTL alarms, so we decided to make it even easier and put instructions on the back of the manual included with all our DualTimers", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

According to Mr Jarvis, the Timer's practical design means that setting up a DOTL alarm is quick and easy.

 

New Version 2 of  Basic Power Relay Cards / Modules
June  2006
ULTRAsmart is now selling its new Version 2 Relay modules. Both the 12 volt DC Coil Relay Module, and a 24 volt DC Coil Relay Module have been upgraded.

"What were already high quality relay modules based around the amazing OMRON G5LE-14  power relays, have been improved even further", said David Jarvis, ULTRAsmart's General Manager Marketing and Communications.

The main improvements include:

  • slightly more space around the PCB's underneath edges without protrusions and solder for better mounting tape adhesion
  • wider tracks from the Relay's switching contacts N/C, N/O, and COM to each of their respective terminals for greater current carrying capacity
  • PCB aesthetics have been improved with white writing on black background to create a very professional look

"What was great value for money is now even better", Mr Jarvis said.

"Capable of switching up to 250 VAC or 30 volt DC, these high quality relay modules will have a lot of uses in the security, control, home automation and access control, and hobby electronics markets". 

"Because they are such great value for money, we believe a lot of people will find these relay modules to be just what they have been looking for", Mr Jarvis said.
