Description

The Rako RAK8-MB dimmer rack for population with pluggable dimmer modules.  

  • An eight slot motherboard which forms the base of a RAK8 dimmer array.
  • Designed to be wall mounted in an electrical cupboard.
  • Any combination of pluggable modules can be fitted into the 8 slot motherboard allowing for greater flexibility during both specification and installation.
  • Requires a separate controller/receiver which connects using standard CAT5 RJ45 sockets.
  • Controlled from any Rako Rakom RF or WIRED device, for example the RCM or WCM push button wall plates.

RAK8 dimmer arrays can be used as either a single 8 channel array or joined together to form a multi-way stack. The RAK8 requires a separate Rako interface for control. Either the RF receiver (RxLink) or the WIRED controller (RAKLink), these units communicate using a single CAT5 RJ45 patch lead. When used with the wireless receiver (RX-Link) up to 16 channels can be used per stack. When used with a wired system (RAKLink) up to 32 channels per stack are available. It is possible to mix and match RAK4s and RAK8s on the same multi-way stack. The same maximum number of channels per stack applies.

All memory is stored on the motherboard rather than the pluggable module meaning they can be swapped without the need to be reprogrammed. The RAK8 units are designed to be centrally located in an electrical cupboard, utility room or garage. The RAK8 dimmer can be used seamlessly with any other Rako modules, such as RML and RMT in-line dimmers, RCM or WCM wallplates, RAH hand helds, timeclocks etc. Each RAK8 box needs to be fed by a 10A Type B MCB.
