Evolve LFM-20 Controlling 120V Load

Evolve LFM-20 Controlling 120V Load

The LFM-20 is powered by 120VAC (house voltage), and has an isolated relay.  This means the 2 blue wires, the relay output, are not powered normally.  They can be used to switch anything within the load rating from dry contact, to low voltage and up.  Please note that if you are mixing low and high voltage, and with all 120V products you must ensure you are meeting all electrical and building codes and we recommend an electrician do the work.

 

When the LFM-20 is used to switch a light/load that is powered by the same source power (sharing hot & neutral), then the black & one blue can be bridged to provide 120V power on the 2nd blue when the LFM20 is triggered.   See the attached diagram.

Please ensure you read and understand before proceeding and be sure to check this with an electrician.  We will not be held responsible for any issues arising from the use of this diagram.  Use at your own risk!
