Radio remote control with handheld transmitter suitable for cranes, crane trucks and overhead travelling cranes. Ergonomic, compact and lightweight. The installation is simple and quick thanks to the wireless pairing procedure using the buttons on the remote control.

Features

  • Quick and easy installation by wireless pairing procedure using the keyboard pushbuttons.
  • Supplied as standard with a primary working frequency and a secondary working one: by Automatic Channel Switching (ACS), in case of radio interference, the radio communication automatically switches to the secondary frequency, allowing continuous operation for the user.
  • Transmitter with 5 LEDs: 2 LEDs (red high brightness) to indicate the battery level and the error code for anomalies, 2 (orange) to indicate the input of auxiliary functions e 1 (green) to show the active status of the remote control.
  • Transmitter featuring "Data Feedback" function: 4 LEDs are programmable to see the actual status of each relay of the receiver.
  • Receiver equipped with red and green LEDs to warn receiving.
  • transmission status between the transmitter and the receiver unit by signaling via pulse code.
  • IP protection degree: RCK is classified IP 65.
  • Extreme temperature resistance: from -25°C to +55°C.
  • Case in nylon PA6 (GF 30%).
  • Featuring "Zero-G" function to prevent the uncontrolled input of commands in specific emergencies: the G sensor can detect if the transmitter receives a hard impact, drops or is trown and deactivate either the complete radio system or only the safety-relevant function relays.
  • Activation of the transmitter protected by an electronic key-code and by an auto shut-off programmable option.
  • Featuring "Black Box" function to collect the usage data of both transmitter and receiver.

Options

  • Available in configurations from 2 to 12 buttons, 1 or 2 speeds, Start button and EMO mushroom (Stop) or in configurations from 2 to 8 buttons, 1 or 2 speeds, a potentiometer to adjust the output from 0 to 10 volts, Start button and EMO mushroom (Stop).
  • Receiver equipped with pull-out terminals for an easy wiring to any system by means of 4 corner brackets, or through fastening to the center nut.
  • Receiving antenna easily suitable to be screwed onto the SMA type connector. On request it's possible to mount an external antenna with 2 or 5 meters cable with a magnetic base.
  • Programmable to work with special functions that can be integrated via software.
  • Supplied with protective case, wrist and shoulder strap, 1 set of 1.5 V alkaline batteries + 1 spare set and replacement standard button labels.
  • Available on request with QI wireless charging pad, trasparent pouch, shoulder belt, programming cable, optional labels, 230 V battery charger with 2 sets 2600 mA rechargeable batteries and 230 V - 12/24 V battery charger with USB socket and 2 sets 2400 mA rechargeable batteries.

Certifications

  • CE Marking.
  • FCC Certification.
  • Performance Level Categoria 3 PL d.
