Crestron GLXX-HDSW8 8 Channel Heavy Duty Switch Module

About the Crestron GLXX-HDSW8

The GLXX-HDSW8 is a chassis rather than a complete switching unit. Each channel in use needs a heavy duty relay fitted: the GLR-HD-1P for single pole switching or the GLR-HD-2P for double pole switching. Because the design is modular, a panel can start with the relays it needs today and take more later, up to the full 8 channels.

Every channel carries a load rating of 20 Amp and 1.5 HP. The module supports loads up to 480 Volts, including 2-pole motor loads, and each output has a positive air gap. It is intended for heavy duty power switching within Crestron Green Light commercial lighting systems, where it works alongside the other parts of a GLPX panel.

The module is designed for GLEX cabinet installation and forms part of a complete Crestron engineered GLPX Green Light Express panel. When replacing a module or extending a panel, check which relay type each channel uses, because the chassis needs a GLR-HD-1P or GLR-HD-2P relay in place before that channel can switch a load.

Questions about the Crestron GLXX-HDSW8

What is the Crestron GLXX-HDSW8?

It is an 8 channel heavy duty switch module from the Crestron Green Light Express range. The GLXX-HDSW8 is a switching module chassis that provides up to 8 channels of heavy duty power switching, and it forms part of a complete Crestron engineered GLPX Green Light Express panel.

Which relays does the GLXX-HDSW8 use?

The chassis requires heavy duty relays to switch its channels: the GLR-HD-1P for single pole switching or the GLR-HD-2P for double pole switching. Each channel that is in use needs one of these relays fitted before it can switch a load.

What loads can the GLXX-HDSW8 switch?

Each channel has a load rating of 20 Amp and 1.5 HP. The module supports loads up to 480 Volts, including 2-pole motor loads, and there is a positive air gap at each output. It is built for heavy duty power switching in Green Light commercial lighting systems.

Can more channels be added later?

Yes. The module has a modular design that allows relays to be added when they are needed. A panel can start with only some channels fitted with relays and have more added later, up to the maximum of 8 heavy duty switching channels in one module.

What panel is the module part of?

The GLXX-HDSW8 is part of a complete Crestron engineered GLPX Green Light Express panel and is designed to be housed in a GLEX cabinet. Within that panel it provides the heavy duty switching channels, with a GLR-HD-1P or GLR-HD-2P relay on each channel in use.

How much is the Crestron GLXX-HDSW8?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the GLXX-HDSW8 directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the GLXX-HDSW8?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the GLXX-HDSW8 on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the GLXX-HDSW8 come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the GLXX-HDSW8 develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the GLXX-HDSW8 in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the GLXX-HDSW8 without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
