UIS Control Plug, Plug Adapter for Connecting UIS

This is great! Very budget friendly for a heater setup. The plug is large but it is very easy to connect and worked immediately with my controller. I have a low watt heater that is either on or off and this works perfectly. I was able to save with this setup and it works very well with the Controller AI+. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to save some money if you already have some equipment lying around. Controls offered are for; fans (vent/circulation), heater/ac, light, humid/dehumidifier, CO2, and H2O pump. I can imagine potential in this since AC Infinity would be able to update their firmware to add more device support. This will not work for items that need an additional power initiation, meaning this essentially turns the outlet on or off. If you need to push a button on the "fan" or "heater" after plugging it in, this will not work for you.

I was using a inkbird controller, but it had it's own issues and having 2 different sensors and controllers meant larger swings in humidity. Using this, I'm able to maintain +/- 2% difference around the clock. It will force the unit on and off, but if you have your exhaust system set correctly and temperatures stable, it shouldn't be an issue. Mine clicks the humidifier on and off maybe 12-15x per 8 hours. Your milage will vary as your lung rooms conditions will be different. There is no official differential settings like the Inkbird where you can let it be within a set percentage range without turning on or off.

Works like it should, like most ac infinity products

Using for a green house to set a thermostat on an evaporative cooler. Using with an ac infinity controller 69. Installation was as easy as plugging it in to the was and the controller.

⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING for AC Infinity Controller Users Regarding the UIS™ Control Plug Adapter ⚠️ Subject: Potential Risk Using the UIS™ Control Plug Adapter Directly with High-Power Appliances (ACs, Dehumidifiers, Heaters) Hey fellow AC Infinity users, This is a heads-up regarding the AC Infinity UIS™ Control Plug Adapter. While incredibly useful for integrating non-UIS devices, there's a potential safety risk if you use it directly to switch high-power appliances, especially those with motors or compressors like portable air conditioners, dehumidifiers, or larger heaters. The Problem: High Inrush Current: Appliances with motors (like ACs) draw a significantly higher current for a brief moment when they start up (this is called "inrush current"). Adapter Limitations: The UIS adapter, essentially a smart relay in a plug format, may not be designed to consistently handle these high inrush currents or the continuous high load of these powerful devices. Potential Risks: Directly connecting these high-load devices to the UIS adapter could lead to: Adapter Failure/Burnout: The adapter's internal components could overheat and fail prematurely. Controller Damage: A failing adapter could potentially damage the connected AC Infinity Controller port. Fire Hazard: Overheating electrical components always carry a risk of fire. The SAFER Solution without burning your house down: Use a Contactor and Circuit Breaker! To safely control your high-power appliance using the AC Infinity system, you should use the UIS adapter only to control a contactor (a heavy-duty electrical relay). The contactor will handle the actual switching of the high power load. You also MUST include a dedicated circuit breaker for proper protection. How it Works: The AC Infinity Controller tells the UIS Adapter to turn ON or OFF. The UIS Adapter sends a small control signal (likely 120V AC) to the contactor's coil (A1/A2 terminals). This small signal energizes the contactor's coil, causing it to close its main power contacts (L1/T1, L2/T2, etc.). The high power for your appliance flows from your wall outlet, through the dedicated circuit breaker, through the contactor's main contacts, and finally to a dedicated outlet where your appliance is plugged in. When the UIS adapter turns OFF, the contactor coil de-energizes, its main contacts open, and the power to your appliance is cut. This setup isolates your sensitive controller and UIS adapter from the damaging high power and inrush current. What You Need (Typical US Components (im from austria, i dont know exactly) - ALWAYS verify for your specific appliance!): Contactor: Load Rating: Must be rated for your appliance's voltage (likely 120V AC, but check!) AND amperage (check your appliance's nameplate - e.g., 15A, 20A). Choose a contactor rated at least slightly higher than your appliance's max current draw. Pole Configuration: For a standard US 120V appliance (with a regular NEMA 5-15P plug), a 2-pole contactor is ideal (switches both the hot and neutral wires). Coil Voltage: CRITICAL! The contactor's coil voltage MUST MATCH the output voltage of the UIS adapter. This is almost certainly 120V AC for the US market UIS adapter. Using the wrong coil voltage will destroy the contactor or it won't work. Look for "Coil: 120V AC" or similar on the contactor specs. Example Search Term: "2 pole 20 amp contactor 120v coil DIN rail mount" Circuit Breaker (MCB - Miniature Circuit Breaker): Rating: Must match the circuit protection required for your appliance and wiring (commonly 15A or 20A for standard 120V circuits). Check your appliance's requirements. Use a 1-pole breaker for 120V (switching the hot wire). Voltage: Must be rated for 120V AC (or higher). Mounting: DIN rail mount type. Example Search Term: "1 pole 15 amp DIN rail circuit breaker 120V" Enclosure: A DIN rail enclosure (plastic or metal electrical box) to safely house the contactor, circuit breaker, and outlet. Ensure it's large enough for wiring. Outlet: A DIN rail mountable electrical outlet matching your appliance's plug (likely a NEMA 5-15R for standard 120V/15A, or possibly NEMA 5-20R for 20A). Wiring: Use the correct wire gauge (AWG) for the circuit breaker rating (e.g., 14 AWG for 15A, 12 AWG for 20A). Use THHN or similar rated wire. Use appropriate colors (typically Black for Hot, White for Neutral, Green for Ground). Use smaller gauge wire (e.g., 18 AWG or 16 AWG) for the low-power connection between the UIS adapter output and the contactor coil (A1/A2). Miscellaneous: DIN rail, wire connectors (Wago, wire nuts), input power cord with plug, strain relief fittings. Simplified Wiring Flow: Wall Outlet Power (Input Cord) -> DIN Rail Circuit Breaker (Input) Circuit Breaker (Output) -> Contactor Load Terminals (e.g., L1) [Only Hot wire goes through 1-pole breaker] Wall Outlet Power (Input Cord) Neutral -> Contactor Load Terminals (e.g., L2) [Neutral bypasses 1-pole breaker] Contactor Load Output Terminals (e.g., T1, T2) -> DIN Rail Outlet (Hot, Neutral) Wall Outlet Power (Input Cord) Ground -> Continuously to DIN Rail Outlet Ground Terminal AND Enclosure Ground point. (Ground is NEVER switched or fused). UIS Adapter Output -> Contactor Coil Terminals (A1, A2) (Use a separate cord with a plug for the UIS adapter, connecting Hot/Neutral to A1/A2. Isolate the ground wire from this cord safely). Disclaimer & Final Warning: Working with mains voltage (120V/240V AC) is DANGEROUS and can cause serious injury or death if not done correctly. This information is for educational purposes only. If you are not 100% comfortable and knowledgeable about electrical wiring, PLEASE HIRE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. Always ensure power is completely OFF at the main panel before working. Follow all local electrical codes (NEC in the US). Double-check all connections before applying power. Don't risk your equipment or your safety! Use the contactor and breaker method for controlling high-power devices with your AC Infinity setup. Stay safe!

Great product works

I have several I use this to connect my fertigation/drip setup, low wattage heater, pump on home made clone, etc to the AC Infinity 69pro+ controller. Initially seemed like overkill when the existing mechanical timer works well but this is infinitely easier/better/quicker to set repeating cycles and make subsequent adjustments. Also it fits nicely on the power strip where other timers consume a lot of space. Not so good for variable schedules because AC Infinity’s controllers are particularly dumb with scheduling logic. I dislike that UIS connection comes out the side as can interfere with other items on power strip but not horrible if it happens to come with L shaped cable end- not all do. This week was tracking down anomalously high tent temperature and horrified to find that the cube I control light cycles with was stuck “on” for a couple days. Second time this has happened each time after changing timing via the controller screen. Easily dealt with by power cycling the cube and I’m thinking a power cycle after any parameter change might be a good idea but dropped rating a notch. Automation is wonderful but needs to be bulletproof!

The AC Infinity UIS Control Plug is an absolute must-have for anyone running a high-tech grow setup. It seamlessly integrates my Spider Farmer light, AC Infinity 4-inch inline fan, smart controller, and humidifier in my 2x4 tent for the ultimate environmental control. The plug is easy to set up and instantly connects to the smart controller, letting me manage everything from one centralized system. I can adjust the light schedule, fan speed, humidity, and temperature all in perfect harmony. This integration ensures my plants get the exact conditions they need at all times, which has dramatically improved my grow results. Pairing this with the AC Infinity humidifier has taken things to the next level. The precision and automation are unparalleled—my tent practically runs itself! Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned grower, this setup is the gold standard for efficiency, convenience, and results. Highly recommend to anyone looking to optimize their grow environment!

Worth every penny hands down! I have it controlling lights never an issue at all cannot be happier. I find everything buy AC Infinity top shelf products. Highly recommend

Funcionó perfectamente. Le conecté un abanico para uso en invernadero casero

Works perfect. I have two controlling lights. Never a problem

I was little scared to try it with one of my lights, in fact it took me a week to get the courage to set it up…presto worked out of the box, I’m beside myself with this new amazing technology, my light I’m using it with is the Viparspectra XS2000, set it up last night and crossed fingers, hate to have to get up at six every morning to turn it all on, so once I figure it all out, got to laugh, I’m technology stupid…but in time I get things working…I know someone will say why not use a timer, well I tried 3 different types, and couldn’t understand the instructions, see what I mean….so now that I found AC Infinity that’s all I need…no more garbage..and thank you 🙏🏽

Works great for a heater setting 0= off 10= on work awesome with control 69
