DLite Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I'm working on integrating a patio heater into C4. My electrician says I need a 30A powered relay in order to run the heater. My Control4 dealer has not previously connected a relay of that power level and is uncertain whether it can be successfully and safely connected to a relay output on an EA-5 or an I/O Extender. Does anyone out there have experience controlling pumps, heaters, motors, etc, with a relay of this size connected to a C4 device? Thanks a lot.

Neo1738 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 You can get simple on/off control w these. I have 2 for my heaters combined w a C4 switch for on/off works perfectly! https://www.elkproducts.com/product-catalog/elk-9200-heavy-duty-relay-contactor DLite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like that would also be easy to plug into a C4 outlet too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR2 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 This thread mentions a few different ways. You need a $20.00 contactor and an C4 operated switch or relay Pool motor control - Push the Envelope - c4forums | The Control4 Community DLite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
