Overview

The Foundry Mini Panels offer up to eight zones of DMX controlled lighting with fully rated 20 A relays and optional 0–10 V control per zone. The Mini Panel features a Demand Response input for energy saving integration and a UL 924 emergency lighting control bypass with power loss sense. The Mini Panel is available in flush-mount or surface-mount options and can be located in an air plenum to be easily tucked out of sight.
