Product Description
Zooz 700 Series Z-Wave Plus Universal Relay
Add Z-Wave Anywhere
Truly a universal solution that lives up to its name! With the Universal Relay, you can turn almost any load between 0 to 240 V into a Z-Wave device. Automate garage doors, motors, pumps, and more.
The Universal Relay provides both a normally open or normally closed relay to choose from on each of the outputs. Have a reversed polarity motor? No problem! You can even use the terminals on both NC and NO relays. With a load limit of up to 20 A (1/2 hp) for NO applications and up to 10 A (1/4 hp) for NC applications, there are so many creative ways you can implement the Universal Relay in your smart home environment.
Relay Outputs
The Universal Relay utilizes dry contact relays, which allows each load to run on its own power source. Each device uses its own independent power, including the Universal Relay device itself.
Control reverse polarity motors for up-down screens, shades, or motorized awnings. You can even optimize energy use around your HVAC system through damper automation or controlling a whole-house fan.
Smart Inputs
Use the inputs on the Universal Relay to monitor analog binary sensors and other dry contact or low voltage devices.
Trigger the connected outputs with wall switches or buttons for simple physical control. Close the circuit on the ZEN17 relays with low-voltage HVAC or alarm signals. Just remember that only one input type (either 12-24 V or dry) can be connected for each output at a time.
With advanced functionality, you can separate the inputs from the outputs to utilize the Universal Relay for monitoring purposes instead of triggering a device. You can then program how each input device will display in your hub (open/close, motion, water, or on/off reporting device) to turn your Universal Relay into a smart monitor with 2 independently controllable outputs.
DIY Garage Door Controller
Automate up to 2 garage doors with a single Universal Relay!
Do you want to add Z-Wave control and monitoring to your garage door opener? The most common use case for the Universal Relay is providing full garage door automation.
To accurately monitor the status of your garage door, you can connect a wired door sensor to the input side and program it to report open/close notifications through your hub’s interface. Then wire the opener to the relay part to activate your garage door opener remotely when needed.
You can still use a Z-Wave tilt or contact sensor installed on the garage door that will accurately report the status and position of the garage door if that’s your preference.
For simple, intuitive monitoring and control, check out the Zooz Garage Door Opener App on Hubitat, created specifically for the Zooz relays.
NOTE: Please make sure you use a Z-Wave system that supports all of the advanced features of the Universal Relay before you purchase the device. These Z-Wave hubs include Home Assistant (Z-Wave JS), HomeSeer, Hubitat, and compatible with SmartThings. (Hub sold separately).

How it’s powered
You can use either a 12-24 V or a USB C plug to power the Universal Relay. Do NOT use both power supplies at the same time.
You’ll need a standard 1 A power adapter to plug into a standard 120 VAC receptacle (power supply is not included).
Do NOT power the device with laptop or tablet chargers. Do NOT use power banks or batteries to power the relay.
Better Z-Wave
The Universal Relay is equipped with the 700 series Z-Wave chip. It offers more range and a reliable signal repeater to your growing network.
SmartStart and S2 Authenticated security in this device allow for a quicker and safer set-up.
Why Z-Wave
There are many reasons for choosing Z-Wave technology over Wi-Fi alternatives.
Z-Wave devices are more secure. It’s the preferred wireless protocol at the largest security companies. This Z-Wave relay runs on encrypted radio signal while Wi-Fi products often rely on an unsecure network that can be easily hacked.
Products equipped with Z-Wave communicate faster and are more reliable. That’s because they don’t contribute to router overload. This makes them perfect for tasks like turning on lights or appliances instantly when needed.
Finally, Z-Wave doesn’t depend on the cloud. This means your devices continue to work even if the servers go offline. You can continue using your Z-Wave gear locally and have an operational system made up of different brands and device types, even if any of the companies stop supporting their product.

2 SMART OUTPUTS: Control 2 dry contact relays independently with one Z-Wave device. Choose from normally closed (10 A) and normally open (20 A) relays to automate almost any electrical device. Connect an optional wall switch for physical on/off control or use your Z-Wave hub (required, sold separately) for wireless control. Your smart speaker is NOT a Z-Wave hub. This product is NOT supported by Wink or Z-Wave alarm panels.
2 SMART INPUTS: Monitor 12-24 V or dry contact inputs separately from the dry contact outputs. Connect analog binary sensors to receive status updates in your Z-Wave hub from a connected door sensor, water sensor, HVAC system, or alarm panel. Use the inputs to trigger the outputs automatically.
AUTOMATE ANYTHING: Add Z-Wave connectivity to up / down DC motors in screens, motorized blinds, or awnings. Perfect to automate your garage door opener (use a single ZEN17 to control up to 2 garage doors independently), commercial gates, gas fireplace, sprinklers, doorbell, outdoor lighting, pool pump, whole house fan, and any 1-240 V device up to 20 A.
QUICK INSTALLATION: Power it with a 12-24 V AC/DC power source or a standard USB C cable (included) and a power supply (sold separately). Wall-mount ready. Jumper wires NOT included. Do NOT power with 110 V!
NEW 800 Z-WAVE: Enjoy better signal coverage and a stronger Z-Wave repeater for your mesh network with the latest 800 series chip. Long Range ready if your hub supports this feature! It comes with S2 authenticated security and SmartStart for easy pairing. Remembers and restores on/off status after power failure. Built-in auto-on and auto-off timer available if your hub supports advanced settings. The device is ETL certified and conforms with North American safety standards.
HUB COMPATIBILITY: This is an advanced Z-Wave device and it requires an open Z-Wave hub to display correctly. It was tested to work well with Hubitat, Home Assistant, HomeSeer (on 3.0.6.0 Z-Wave plug-in or higher), and compatible with SmartThings with a custom device handler (please go to Zooz support page for details). NOT supported by ADT Pulse, Vivint, Wink, Ring, Alarm.com, or other panels.
