DDRC420FR
Relay Controller

Robust control of switched loads

The Philips Dynalite DDRC420FR provides control of any type of
switched load, including difficult lighting loads. This four channel device
supports all types of switched loads up to 20 A inductive.
DDRC420FR
Robust control of switched loads

• Feed-through power circuit design – Electrically

equivalent to a 4 pole contactor, with the added
advantage of each pole being separately controllable via
the DyNet network.
• Flexible mounting solution – A DIN-rail mountable
device, designed to be installed into the distribution
board supplying power to the controlled circuit.
• Inbuilt diagnostic functionality – Features circuit run
time tracking on each channel and Device Online/Offline
status indication.
• Multiple wiring schemes supported – Controls single
phase and neutral or three phase and neutral (star)
wiring configurations.
• Hardware override – Service override switch accessible
from front panel.
