Versatile Automation with ABB SAH/S8.6.7.1 Combi Switch/Shutter Actuator

The ABB SAH/S8.6.7.1 (2CDG110244R0011) as a Combi Switch/Shutter Actuator 8 fold, 6A, represents a smart evolution in KNX hardware, often referred to as a “Combi Actuator.” Primarily, this device is engineered to provide maximum flexibility in a small footprint. Instead of using separate modules, you can now manage both lighting and blind control within a single unit.
Key Features and Functional Benefits:

  • Hybrid Output Configuration: The device features 8 independent outputs. Furthermore, these can be programmed in pairs to act as shutter channels or individually as switching channels. As a result, it adapts perfectly to changing room requirements.
  • Space-Efficient Design: In addition to its versatility, the actuator is only 4 modules wide. Consequently, it saves significant space in the distribution board compared to traditional specialized actuators.
  • Manual Control & Testing: Moreover, each output can be operated manually using the buttons located on the front of the device. Therefore, commissioning and functional tests can be performed even before the KNX bus is fully programmed.
  • Advanced Logic Functions: Specifically, the SAH/S8.6.7.1 supports complex functions such as scenes, forced operation, and staircase lighting. Additionally, it includes integrated safety features like wind and rain protection for shutters.
  • Optimized Energy Management: The device is powered entirely via the KNX bus. Finally, this eliminates the need for an external auxiliary power supply, which effectively reduces both wiring complexity and energy consumption.

Technical Specifications Summary:

  • Mounting: DIN-rail (MDRC), 4 modular units (70 mm).
  • Rated Current: 6 A per output.
  • Compatibility: Fully compatible with all KNX TP (Twisted Pair) installations.
  • Application: Ideal for hotel rooms, apartments, and office spaces where mixed load control is required.
