[SOLVED]FGS-221 temperature limit and humidity


dynek

Question

Hello All,

I am looking for two information regarding FGS-221:

1. What does "circuit temperature limits" means ? Is it the highest temperature it can reach ?

1.1. If so, manual says 105 degrees Celsius - I guess this is only reached when 2x1.5kW is going through. It should remain low for 5x60W (~300W) lights, right ? I'm just worried because my relays are located @~ 1/2cm of wooden ceiling.

2. Would a FGS-221 resists "high level" of humidity in a bath room ? Or am I better buy a sealed housing to put it inside?

Thank you for your help

300 W won't be a problem. If you put it in a bathroom, I would put the relay in a e-box of suitable IP-protection. That way condensation on the relay and its connections is prevented.

Keep in mind that the box is properly sealed for your use, some boxes will look the same, but offer no protection against humidity. IP65 will suffice for most applications in a bathroom.

If you need a waterproof e-box I can strong recommend the

They are small (big enough for a fibaro module though), fairly cheap and don't require separate cable glands.

  • I decided to move the relay outside of the bathroom, much easier
