Description

Our SL-8503 module offers indirect lighting and temperature control for your aircraft cabin. Lighting features offered with this module are (2) lighting control channels with 20A On/Off power relays. Each lighting channel has an 8-step, isolated, single wiper pot. The temperature control channel has a 16-step, isolated, dual wiper pot. In addition, (1) 20A & (3) 5A auxiliary relays are built into the SL-8503 to cover other control functions associated with the indirect lighting and temperature control. (4) discrete inputs are offered for controlling the indirect lighting, temperature & auxiliary relays and can be configured in any desired combination via SmartLink-III™ software. Ideally, the module would be placed in close proximity to the lights it is controlling, thus reducing wiring runs to the lights. The lighting functions of this module can be controlled from multiple, remote locations within the cabin interior. The relay module itself is very lightweight and compact, and can be easily installed within the tight confines of today’s corporate aircraft. The module easily connects into the SmartLink-III™ wire bus with only a minimum of cable hook-ups required. The electronics utilize heavy-duty circuits, insuring the highest reliability.
