Ajax smart sockets
Wireless smart plugs with a power consumption monitor
Smart and powerful
Ajax sockets are wireless smart plugs equipped with a power consumption monitoring feature and remote control via the Ajax apps. You can program one or more sockets to perform actions based on a schedule, an alarm, or a specific scenario, making life safer and more comfortable.
Explore the unique features of Ajax smart sockets
Power control via smartphone
Ajax sockets are easily and conveniently managed through the Ajax apps, whether onsite or thousands of kilometers away. Users can instantly turn sockets on or off, monitor real-time power consumption to manage energy usage efficiently, and set schedules to automatically turn devices on or off at specific times. Users are instantly notified of any changes with a detailed, indestructible event log. For instance, if the load current exceeds the limits set in the app, the plug will automatically turn off to prevent damage, and the user will receive a notification about the overcurrent event.
Power consumption under control
The LED indication on the plug’s frame smoothly transitions between different colors to visualize the current load. If one or more protections are triggered, such as during a power surge, the LED flashes red to highlight critical events. Simultaneously, the system sends a notification to the user. If the power exceeds safe levels, the socket automatically shuts off to prevent damage. This ensures appliances are protected from electrical issues, giving users peace of mind.
The force of automation scenarios
Sockets bring automation scenarios into everyday life, making routine tasks more efficient and less time-consuming. They can be configured to turn off automatically when the security system is armed, during emergencies, or in response to various events such as changes in temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration. Additionally, specific devices can be scheduled to turn on or off at particular times, such as starting a coffee maker brewing in the morning.
Ajax product categories
In an Ajax system, you can combine devices of all product categories: Intrusion protection (both Superior and Baseline), Video surveillance, Fire and life safety, or Comfort and automation. Create the system to suit your needs and manage it in a single interface.
Smart plugs: What they are and how they work
A smart plug is a device that transforms ordinary electrical outlets into intelligent ones. It allows you to control appliances remotely through a smartphone or a voice assistant. These plugs can be programmed to power on and off connected devices automatically.
Features of a smart plug
Smart plugs offer a wide range of features that can enhance convenience, energy efficiency, and automation in your home. Here are the key features of a smart plug:
- Remote control: A smart plug lets you turn devices on or off remotely using an app on your smartphone. Whether at home or away, you can conveniently manage your appliances with just a tap.
- Power consumption monitoring: Many smart plugs have energy monitoring features, allowing users to track how much power their devices consume. This helps optimize energy usage, potentially reducing electricity costs by identifying energy-draining devices.
- Scheduling and automation: A smart plug can be set on a schedule, turning connected devices on or off at specific times. This is useful for automating routines, such as turning on a lamp at sunset or switching off appliances when you leave the house.
How smart plugs work
Smart plugs operate by plugging into a standard electrical socket and allowing users to control the power supply to any device. The key components of a smart plug include:
- Wi-Fi connectivity: Most smart plugs connect to the internet via your home's Wi-Fi network.
- App integration: The smart plug works through a mobile application that allows you to control your devices, monitor energy consumption, and set schedules from anywhere in the world.
- Energy protection: Some models have built-in safety features, such as overload protection. If a device uses more power than it should, the smart plug will automatically turn off the appliance, preventing potential damage from electrical faults.
Why use a smart plug?
Smart plugs provide a simple and cost-effective way to add automation to your home. They're handy for individuals who want to:
- Manage energy use: Track and reduce the energy consumption of home appliances by monitoring real-time usage.
- Simplify routines: Set timers or schedules for appliances, ensuring they are turned off when not in use, helping to prevent wasted energy.
- Enhance convenience: Automate everyday tasks, like turning on a fan during hot weather or brewing coffee in the morning, without lifting a finger.
In summary, a smart plug is a practical, versatile tool for optimizing their home's energy consumption, automating routines, and increasing convenience with the power of remote control and smart technology.
