Yacht Devices NMEA 2000 Micro 4X Bistable Relay Switch YDRB-01
Category: Electronics
Subcategory: Electrical Connections
Revolutionize the way you manage your vessel´s electrical systems with the Yacht Devices NMEA 2000 Bistable Relay Switch. This compact and powerful Electrical Circuit controller allows you to seamlessly integrate and command up to four high-power onboard devices directly from your chartplotter, multi-function display (MFD), or dedicated NMEA 2000 control panels. Move beyond manual switches and embrace intelligent, centralized control for a safer, more convenient, and automated boating experience.
The core of this device lies in its advanced bistable (latching) relay technology. Unlike traditional relays that require constant power to stay active, our bistable relays maintain their on or off state even if the NMEA 2000 network is powered down or rebooted. This critical feature ensures that your essential systems, like navigation lights or bilge pumps, remain in their last commanded state, preventing unexpected shutdowns and providing unparalleled reliability and peace of mind.
Key Benefits:
* Centralized Helm Control: Activate and deactivate lights, pumps, horns, and other equipment directly from your MFD screen. Eliminate the need to move around the vessel to access physical switch panels, especially in challenging conditions.
* Unmatched Reliability: The bistable relay design ensures that the switch state is saved and maintained through power cycles. This prevents system resets and conserves precious battery power, as the device only draws a minimal 30mA from the network.
* Advanced Automation: Configure the relay to respond automatically to data from other NMEA 2000 sensors. For example, program a ventilation fan to turn on when a temperature sensor reaches a set point, or activate a pump based on a tank level sensor reading.
* Enhanced Safety: Featuring galvanic isolation between the NMEA 2000 network and the connected load circuits, the relay switch protects your sensitive marine electronics from potential power surges and electrical faults.
* Flexible Configuration: Each of the four channels can be independently programmed to function as a standard on/off switch or as a momentary push-button, ideal for controlling devices like horns or windlass controls.
Main Features:
* Four independent relay channels for controlling multiple circuits.
* Bistable (latching) relays that retain their state without continuous power.
* Control via standard NMEA 2000 PGNs (127502) for wide compatibility with MFDs from major brands.
* Can be managed by other Yacht Devices digital switching products and sensors.
* Clear LED indicators for visual status confirmation of each channel.
* User-configurable channel modes (on/off switch or momentary button).
* “Load Shedding” function to automatically switch off designated consumers when voltage drops.
* IP67 waterproof housing and compact, space-saving design.
