Hi Guys,
Complete newbie here so apologies for my ignorance in advance.
I have a project on the go at the minute and I'm a bit stuck. Basically I have a control board which operates a relay. I want this relay to operate a mechanical actuator. The problem is I need a neutral position with the actuator otherwise it is going to burn the motor out. At the moment I only have normally open or normally closed positions which I use to drive the actuator in one direction or another.
Is there such a thing as a three position relay in which I can have one position with no current flowing?
Thank you for your time in advance.
Andy
