FAQ
What makes the PA-CB31 suitable for heavy-duty linear actuators compared to other control boxes?

The PA-CB31 features a design specialized for high power actuator control with high-current MOSFET motor drivers, reinforced PCB traces, advanced safety mechanisms, and robust connectors. 

How does the automatic power-saving mode work, and how does the controller wake from standby?

After an idle timeout, the controller enters actuator power-saving mode for energy efficiency. Reactivate the control box with the single press of any button on the remote (100mS response time) to wake the unit instantly.

What are the advantages of using high-current MOSFET drivers and reinforced PCB traces in this control box?

The reinforced PCB actuator controller and MOSFET motor drivers allow for lower conduction efficiency losses, cooler operation temperatures, and higher reliability at elevated currents.

What are the differences when using this control box with 12 VDC vs 24 VDC actuators?

The 12V vs 24V control performance is functionally identical, but the 24V actuator current draw is lower for the same power, improving efficiency and reducing the need for thicker gauge wires.

Which actuators and power supplies are compatible with the PA-CB31, and what should I consider when selecting a wiring harness?

Actuators with 2-wire operation for their 12V or 24V brushed DC motors are compatible with the PA-CB31. Select a power supply that can handle the full load actuator current draw and outputs the actuator’s operating voltage. Choose wiring harnesses that match the connectors and current draw requirements (heavier gauge for high-amp loads) of your actuators for a plug-and-play actuator system.
