The board you reference is probably "doable" with Node-Red, but over the last year, I have not seen anyone write a flow for one.
Is this the only board you would consider?? If so, Node-Red commands would need to be written to access the board's API.? Very doable, but would need to be created from scratch. ?
Another approach is to use a relay board that others on this list have already used.? Here are links to some of the boards I have seen used by others on this list.? Look over the options and if one of these meets your needs, we can steer you to already completed Node-Red flows.

These can be accessed via a wireless TCP connection, and maybe nice for a remote location of our beverage controller. ? Dave, NO0X, and Mark, MKCM Software have flows for these boards:
?
You can use GPIO pins on the Raspberry PI to operate?relay boards.? There is a simple to use Node available to use that gives input/output access to each GPIO pin, I have flows for this:
I like this board, which again uses GPIO pins:
Mike, VA3MW posted a GPIO based board earlier on this forum.
Mike, VA3MW likes KMtronic boards, and has Node-Red flows for them:
USB based boards require board-specific drivers to be installed on the Raspberry Pi, and I have not had good luck making these work, so none are listed.
