Remote Control Technology provides dependable stationary wireless control systems for applications where running control wire is impractical, expensive, or unreliable. From simple short-range switching to long-range industrial control, RCT systems provide reliable wireless communication between remote equipment without monthly fees or complicated infrastructure.
RCT Short Range 154 MHz systems provide dependable wireless switching for applications where the transmitter and receiver are located relatively close together. Ideal for pumps, motors, lights, gates, alarms, and other equipment, these systems eliminate the need to run control wire where wiring would be difficult or costly.
RCT Compact Short Range systems provide simple, dependable wireless switching for applications where the transmitter and receiver are located relatively close together. Their compact design makes them well suited for straightforward equipment control where running new control wire would be difficult or impractical.
RCT Medium and Long Range systems provide dependable wireless control for applications where equipment is separated by greater distances. Designed for industrial, municipal, and agricultural applications, these systems provide reliable communication between remote equipment without the cost and difficulty of installing control wire.
RCT offers several stationary wireless control system options depending on the distance, equipment, and requirements of your application. Use the guide below as a starting point, or contact us and we’ll help you determine the right system for your project.
Dependable wireless switching for applications where the transmitter and receiver are located up to approximately ½ mile apart.
Good choice for:
Compact wireless control for applications where the transmitter and receiver are located up to approximately 1 mile apart.
Good choice for:
Longer-range wireless control for applications where equipment is separated by greater distances — up to approximately 5 miles.
Good choice for:
The best system depends primarily on the distance between the transmitter and receiver, the equipment being controlled, the installation environment, and the features required. RCT offers stationary systems with ranges from approximately ½ mile to 5 miles. If you’re unsure which system is best for your application, contact us and we’ll help you select the appropriate equipment.
Depending on the system, RCT stationary wireless controls can provide communication ranges from approximately ½ mile to 5 miles. Actual range can vary depending on terrain, obstructions, antenna placement, and other site conditions.
Not necessarily. RCT wireless systems can often operate without perfect line of sight, but buildings, terrain, trees, and other obstructions can affect range and reliability. Proper system selection and antenna placement are important, particularly for longer-distance applications.
Yes. RCT stationary wireless systems provide relay outputs that can be used to control pumps, motors, lights, gates, alarms, and many other types of equipment. The RCT receiver typically interfaces with the appropriate control circuit rather than directly switching the equipment’s load.
Yes. Depending on the application and RCT system selected, multiple transmitters and/or receivers can be used to provide more complex wireless control. Contact RCT if your application requires multiple control points and we can help determine the appropriate configuration.
Give us a call or send us the details of your application. Tell us what you’re trying to control, the approximate distance involved, and any site conditions that may affect wireless communication. We’ll help you determine which RCT system is the best fit.
