VINT Upgrades
Second generation VINT devices have increased communication speeds, longer Phidget cables, and improved electrical immunity. Learn more here.
The PhidgetInterfaceKit 0/0/8 provides small signal relays with 8 relay outputs, rated at a combination of 250VAC, or 2 Amps, up to a maximum of 60 Watts. While typical mechanical relay boards are unable to switch signals due to an oxide buildup on the contacts, the 1017 excels at switching both signals and low-power applications. The 1017_2 can be connected via USB, or to a VINT Hub using a Phidget cable.
Please Note: These relays cannot be switched at maximum current and maximum voltage at the same time. Ensure that the total power of the load does not exceed the switching power of the relay. For example, you can switch these relays at 200V DC and 0.3 A (60W), or 30V DC and 2A (60W), but not 200V DC and 2A (400W).

Second generation VINT devices can now extend up to 50 meters from a VINT Hub. Learn more here.
