The ROSSMA IIOT-AMS DRY CONTACT RELAY meter-switch is designed for remote control of high-voltage industrial equipment (up to 30 kW) using commands received via LoRaWAN or NB-IoT wireless networks.

The device is equipped with a powerful relay output (switching up to 240V 10A) and four discrete inputs for monitoring equipment status and pulse counting.

Equipment is registered in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation as equipment manufactured on the territory of the Russian Federation (Conclusion 48859/11 dated June 11, 2021).

Application Areas

Industrial Equipment Control

• Pump stations: remote switching of pumps on/off
• Ventilation systems: control of fans and air handling units
• Compressor equipment: remote start/stop of compressors
• Conveyor lines: control of conveyor electric drives
• Machines and production equipment: remote start/stop (up to 30 kW)

Lighting Control

• Street lighting: on/off by schedule or sensors
• Industrial workshops: control of large area lighting
• Parking lots and territories: automation of lighting by time of day
• Emergency lighting: activation when sensors trigger

Irrigation Control

• Automated irrigation: on/off of pumps and solenoid valves
• Parks and squares: remote control of irrigation systems
• Greenhouses: automated irrigation by schedule
• Farms: control of irrigation systems

Equipment Status Monitoring

• Operation monitoring: tracking on/off status of connected equipment

Technical Specifications

Relay Output (Power Contact)

• Contact type: dry contact, normally open (NO)
• Switching voltage: up to 240 V AC
• Switching current: up to 10 A (resistive load)

IMPORTANT: For switching inductive loads (motors, transformers), it is recommended to use an RC circuit (snubber) to protect relay contacts from arcing.
