YOUR SHOP. ONE APP.
Stop hunting
for the remote.
Collector, air cleaner, lights and heat together.
Compressor off after hours with Pro.
Rules run on the controller. Home Assistant built in. No subscription.
Control Freak Shop
brought to you by Control Freak
A complete kit of its own.
Sound familiar?
More making. Less walking.
The compressor ran all night.
Set shop hours. Pro commands the compressor off after hours or when you choose Closed.
Is the shop warm enough?
See the shop temperature. Pro adds the finishing room. Schedule heat for the hours you work.
How it works
Your shop, in three steps.
Connect your gear.
Use compatible plug-in equipment. An electrician must fit a contactor for 240 V or magnetic-starter machines.
Set your shop hours.
Schedule lights and heat. On Pro, set the compressor to turn off when the day ends.
Tap before the first cut.
Open your blast gate by hand, command the collector on and check the machine itself.
One place for the whole shop.
Rules stay in the shop.
Rules run on the controller. A Wi-Fi or internet drop changes nothing about those rules. Phone alerts need internet.
Close up with one mode.
Keep collector, air cleaner, lights, heat and compressor commands together. No subscription.
Know what needs attention.
Switch box temperature, tank pressure and long compressor run alerts help you decide what to check.
What’s included
A complete kit of its own.
The controller
Home Assistant built in, with shop rules running on the controller.
The outputs
Connections for the collector, air cleaner, lights and heat your shop uses, with compressor control in Pro.
The sensors
Temperature probes for the shop and switch box. Pro adds tank pressure and finishing-room readings.
Keep the machines you own. Works with the Control Freak gear you already own: every Control Freak product is a complete kit on its own. If a Control Freak controller you already have has a free port or relay, Home Assistant can put it to work for this product too. Equipment compatibility and installation requirements must be checked.
Home Assistant built in
How many apps do you open to run your shop?
The shop and the rest of your home, together in one app.
Keep shop controls on your home network. Alerts by push, text, email or alarm. Phone alerts need internet. No subscription.
Through Home Assistant and its companion app, it works with Google Home, Siri, CarPlay and Alexa: ask Alexa or Siri what the shop temperature is, tell Google Home to turn on the air cleaner, check it from CarPlay, and get voice alerts when something is out of balance.
Honest limits
Know the limits before the first cut.
You start the collector.
It does not sense when a tool starts. Tap before the first cut. Blast gates are manual.
Check the machine.
Outlet commands do not confirm a motor is running. 240 V or magnetic starter collectors need an electrician and a contactor.
Keep your safety systems.
This is not a fire or dust explosion safety system. Phone alerts need internet.
Take the shop for a spin.
Simulated readings. Try the modes, outlet commands and example alerts.
