Description

The wireless remote control FRN-0601 is a 300MHz band weak radio telecontrol unit that enables wireless remote control of various industrial equipment .

The transmitter case has a new design that is easy to hold and has a great feel for operation, and is lightweight and made with an emphasis on workability . The use of two-material molding with elastomer has significantly improved drop resistance. The operation switch section also has an embossed operation label, giving it a structure that prioritizes the feel of operation . The transmitter is waterproof for everyday use so you can work safely even in the rain .

It is equipped with an auto power-off function to prevent forgetting to turn off the transmitter , a power-on fail-safe function to prevent malfunctions (radio waves will not be transmitted even if the transmitter is turned on while the operation switch is being operated), and a periodic function to extend battery life (radio wave transmission will automatically stop approximately 4 seconds after the operation switch is released).

We offer a total of six types of transmitters, with three types of 2, 4, and 6-point operation to suit various applications , and two types of receiver output configurations : + power supply voltage output (common output)/independent relay output (dry output) .

It uses a correlation decoding method that applies SS (spread spectrum) technology, and has excellent noise resistance. As a result, stable wireless ON/OFF operation is possible from a distance of 30m even with weak radio waves in the 300MHz band.

We also have the 429MHz band specific low-power radio remote control FRP-0601, which can be operated remotely from a distance of 150m.
