AKCP Mini Sensor Controlled Relay (MSCR)

The AKCP Mini Sensor Controlled Relay (MSCR) is a compact control module for relay‑based applications in IT and industrial environments. It expands the automation capabilities of sensorProbe+ platforms, providing precise, reliable, and energy‑efficient control of connected equipment based on sensor readings.

Operating Principle

Rated at 200 mA @ 5 V DC, the MSCR is designed to drive larger relays that can in turn switch high‑load devices. This allows a small control current to manage powerful equipment safely and effectively.

• Maximum output: 200 mA @ 5 V DC
• Switching speed: up to 300 cycles/minute no‑load; 30 cycles/minute under load
• Indicator: LED status display
• AutoSense: automatic detection by sensorProbe+ base units
• Rugged design for continuous 24/7 operation

Applications

The MSCR relay is versatile, supporting typical automation scenarios in IT and industrial facilities:

• Data centers: control of cooling systems, fans, and HVAC
• Server rooms: auto‑start backup generators or UPS systems
• Building automation: remote control of doors, lighting, and security systems
• Industrial process control: automating machinery and production systems
• Security integration: activating alarm sirens or strobe lights

Sensor‑Based Control

A key feature is sensor‑driven automation—parameters like temperature, humidity, or airflow can directly trigger relay activation.

Example: If rack temperature exceeds a set threshold, the relay automatically powers fans or HVAC units. When connected to a dry contact input, it can integrate with external safety and access control devices.

Integration and Network Connectivity

Integration with sensorProbe+ systems is automatic via RJ‑45 interface. AutoSense detection immediately registers the relay in the monitoring platform. Through the web interface or SNMP, administrators can define custom switching logic.

• SNMP v1/v2c/v3 support
• Alert actions via email, SMS, or SNMP traps
• Automated relay activation via controller logic schemes
• Cascaded automation with other AKCP sensors

Efficiency and Operational Safety

Automating switching actions with the MSCR reduces energy consumption while guarding against system failures by responding instantly to critical sensor measurements.
