Low Voltage Control Systems: MLC™

 

Description

The MLC offers enhanced functionality over Line Voltage Switch controls by providing master control of large groups of motors while also enabling the integration of low voltage sensors, timers and third party control systems for higher level functionality. The device is designed to accommodate cost conscious applications involving the simultaneous movement of multiple shades where shade operation is typically full up/full down and mid-window positioning and guaranteed alignment is not a driving concern. Blackout shades for A/V conference rooms often require this type of operation. These controllers are best suited for renovate/new construction projects where the control wiring can be conveniently run behind the drywall.

Surface mount raceway and drop ceilings can enable these devices to be installed in retrofit projects as well.

 

Detail

MechoShade's MLC is a cost effective, low voltage controller offering master control of four (4) standard, line voltage motors (120/240VAC, 50/60 Hz). The device is equipped with a low voltage control network that enables the positioning of motors in an UP/DOWN fashion with supervised mid-window positioning from either a single maintained-contact switch or multiple momentary center-off switches and/or low voltage accessories (ie. automation sensors, timers, remote controls, etc.). Up to 25 MLCs (100 motors) can be daisy-chained over the low voltage network to operate from a single switch connection. MechoShade offers a variety of maintained-contact and momentary center-off switches in a wide range of colors and styles to accommodate virtually any décor. In addition, the MLC can operate with a variety of third party contact closure switches and controls supporting seamless integration into Lighting, HVAC, A/V and Building Management Systems (BMS).
