Zooz Low Voltage XS Relay | ZEN58 | Z-Wave Plus 800 EU Series

The Zooz Low Voltage XS Relay ZEN58 800 is an ultra-compact Z-Wave switching module specifically designed for low-voltage applications such as garage doors, access gates, and gas fireplaces. This device enables you to fully remotely control conventional equipment with dry contacts via your home automation system.

Key Features & Benefits

• Low voltage power supply : Operates on 9-40V AC/DC, suitable for various low voltage installations
• Dry contact control : Switch loads up to 3A at 0-240V via dry relay contact
• Ultra-compact size : Fits anywhere, ideal for tight spaces and stacked switches.
• Z-Wave Long Range : Up to 300 meters standard range or 1300 meters (400 feet) with ZWLR functionality via compatible hub
• Scene controller : Analog input can also be used for scene control via double tap triggers
• SmartStart & S2 security : Easy installation by scanning QR code and highest security level
• Multicolor LED : Visual feedback for easier troubleshooting

Compatibility with home automation platforms

The ZEN58 is supported by Home Assistant (Z-Wave JS), Hubitat , HomeSeer , SmartThings (with a custom Lua driver for advanced features), and of course, the Z-Box Hub , which is specifically recommended for Zooz products. The relay offers full on/off control and can be configured via parameters to decouple the physical switch input from the relay. This allows you to use the "S" input to monitor analog sensors, such as leak sensors or open/close sensors, without power.

NB

The device is only suitable for indoor use at temperatures between 0-40°C. The maximum load is 3A at 240V, which means it is not suitable for very heavy loads. Furthermore, the screw terminals accept a maximum of 14 AWG wire.

Practical automation example

Imagine having a garage door with a conventional push-button opener. With the ZEN58, you connect the relay to the opener's control input, which is supplied with a 12-24V power supply. Now you can open your garage door not only manually via a wall switch, but also automatically via your smartphone when you arrive home. Combine this with geofencing automation in Home Assistant, so the garage door opens automatically when you're within 100 meters of your home – ultimate convenience and security!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the ZEN58 for my access gate?
Yes, the ZEN58 is perfectly suited for electric gates that accept dry contact control up to 3A.

Does the ZEN58 support Smart Bulb Mode?
Yes, through the relay control parameter you can disable the physical switch and Z-Wave control, keeping the power constant for smart lights.

Can I use the switch input as a sensor?
Yes, by adjusting the parameter you can disconnect the "S" input from the relay and use it to monitor analog sensors, including leak and open/close sensors without power.
