Besides controlling the RBS remotely, buttons positioned at the top also provide a way to open or close the main contact locally. For external control, the RBS is equipped with a 5 wire interface cable. It can be configured to accept two wire or single wire ON/OFF commands for optimal flexibility.

The RBS is a magnetic latching relay, which means that there is no current draw from the battery when the contact is closed. This is a great benefit compared to regular relays which do require a (sometimes significant-) hold current to keep the contact closed.

Another benefit of the RBS are the built in protections. It is protected against high/low supply voltage and high temperature. On top of this, there is a smart function available to automatically fix light to medium contact weldings. And finally, the RBS is also ignition protected according to ISO8846.

Being a member of the TBS DC Modular family, the RBS can be part of a very compact DC distribution system. The RBS footprint is around 50% smaller compared to some competing products, which is perfect for space constrained installations.
