Use it for non-dimmable lighting, extractor fans, pumps and contactors, where a dimmer is not needed. Rako rates it from 1VA to 800VA and says inrush current must be allowed for. Add an RK-HUB for timed events and app control.

What the Rako RMS-800 is

The Rako RMS-800 is an 800VA switching module for Rako wireless systems. It switches rather than dims, so it suits non-dimmable lighting, fans, pumps and contactors. For dimmable lighting, use a trailing-edge module such as the RMT-500 or a leading-edge module such as the RML-500.

Where it sits in a Rako system

The RMS-800 is controlled from any Rako wireless transmitter, such as an RK-EOS-6 keypad or the RK-HUB, and stores up to 16 scenes. Program it from a Rako keypad, or with RASOFT Pro through a RAMPI or Hub. Rako recommends a WRB100 repeater where reception is intermittent. See all Rako wireless modules.

Ratings and limits

  • Load range: 1VA to 800VA
  • Load types: non-dimmable mains lighting, fans, pumps, contactors

Power and connection

It runs from a 230V AC 50Hz supply, with 3-way screw terminals for input and output that take cable up to 4mm². It communicates by FM radio at 433.9MHz. Rako's RMS-800 instruction manual covers installation, which should be done by a competent electrician.

Fitting
