Description
PA-CB2 Specifications

Control a compatible micro linear actuator wirelessly in a compact installation with the PA-CB2 micro linear actuator control box. It supports 12 VDC operation up to 3.5A, Molex SL connections and up to four paired remotes with a 60 ft open-air range. IP67-rated, with a 2.3 mA power-saving draw at 12 VDC. Made in Canada.

Accepts 10–14.5 VDC input and provides 3.5A output on one channel. Wireless functions include up, down, stop and programming modes. The power-saving mode draws 2.3 mA at 12V and wakes from a single button press.

Includes the control box with wires and connectors and one wireless remote. Use the controller within its documented ingress-protection and operating limits.

Compatible AC power option: PS-5-12-67.

View the PA-CB2 datasheet for setup, wiring and operating limits.

Compatible micro actuators: PA-MC1, PA-MC2, PA-MC3, PA-ST5. Use 12V configurations within the 3.5A current rating.

FAQ
What actuator types are compatible with the PA-CB2, and how should I wire them for plug-and-play operation?

The PA-CB2 is a plug-and-play actuator control box with a 2-pin Molex SL Plug on one end that plugs directly to the 2-pin Molex SL Receptacle of the PA-MC1 for micro actuator compatibility. 

How does the power-saving mode on the PA-CB2 work and what is its typical standby current draw?

After an idle timeout, the low power actuator controller enters power-saving mode with a 2.3mA standby current draw to maximize energy efficiency. Reactivate the control box with the single press of any button on the remote (90mS response time) to wake the unit instantly. 

What functions can be accessed via the wireless remote and how many remotes can be paired with the PA-CB2?

The PA-CB2 wireless remote supports access for extension, retraction, stop, and programming modes. The PA-CB2 can have up to 4 remotes paired to one control box. 

How can I switch between momentary and non-momentary modes or enable smooth motion mode?

For actuator mode selection and enabling smooth motion control, you must first enter programming mode, which allows the user to program the Control Box settings:

Programming Mode

1. Apply power to the Control Box.

2. Entering Programming Mode: Press and hold the M button for 7 seconds, then release the button.

3. Programming Mode: Pressing a button will initiate a specific programming mode, see Operating Instructions.

4. Exiting Programming Mode:

a. Pressing M button once will return to Normal Mode.

b. Normal Mode will resume after 15 seconds if no buttons are pressed while in Programming Mode.


Changing Between Momentary and Non-Momentary

1. Enter Programming Mode 

2. Press the UP button once to switch between Momentary and Non-Momentary control.

3. Normal Mode automatically resumes.


Smooth Motion Control (OFF by default) 

1. Enter Programming Mode

2. Press the S button once to toggle Smooth Motion ON or OFF.

3. Normal Mode automatically resumes after pressing the button.

What safety protections are included in the PA-CB2, and how do they prevent damage during incorrect wiring or overload?

The PA-CB2 fail-safe features include overload safety protection and input reverse voltage protection that shuts off operation in case of input power miswiring and overload conditions.
