Relay Module - 12V
A Relay Module reduces voltage drop in Trim Tab Systems with longer wire runs. With the older trim tab controls, RT1000 and RS1000, the Relay Module also functions as an Interrupter Relay and will prevent a fuse from blowing if Bow Down and Bow Up are inadvertently pressed at the same time.

The Bennett Marine Relay Module (RM12) is a 12V component designed to address specific electrical challenges in trim tab systems, particularly those with extended wire runs. Its primary function is to mitigate voltage drop, ensuring consistent power delivery to trim tab actuators over longer distances. For systems utilizing older Bennett Marine controls, specifically the RT1000 and RS1000 models, this relay module also integrates an interrupter relay function. This feature is critical for system protection, as it prevents fuse blowouts that can occur if both 'Bow Down' and 'Bow Up' commands are simultaneously activated. This module is suitable for marine technicians and boat owners looking to optimize the electrical performance and safeguard the control systems of their trim tabs, especially in installations where wire length could compromise system efficiency or lead to operational issues.
The primary function of this relay module is to reduce voltage drop in trim tab systems, particularly those with longer wire runs, ensuring more stable power delivery.
The relay module functions as an interrupter relay specifically with older trim tab controls, namely the RT1000 and RS1000. Its voltage drop reduction benefits apply broadly to 12V trim tab systems.
The interrupter relay function prevents a fuse from blowing if both 'Bow Down' and 'Bow Up' commands are inadvertently pressed at the same time on compatible older control systems.
This relay module is designed for 12V systems, as indicated by its '12V' specification.
