Wireless Applications for Industrial Remote Controls
- Anything that can be switched (i.e. on/off and forward/backward) or anything that can send and receive data can do so wirelessly.
- From wireless tactical airfield lighting to wireless pump controls, Remote Control Technology’s goal is to provide wireless solutions that are easy to install and simple to operate.
- Remote Control Technology has designed and manufactured custom wireless applications for Exxon/Mobil, Raytheon, Ford, and other Fortune 500 companies.
The following are a few examples of wireless applications using Wireless Switch Systems:
Wireless Pump Controls
Automate your tank level without running wire between the well pump and the tank. Wireless pump controls save you time and money.
Wireless Tank Level Monitoring
Simple wireless monitoring of your tank level from a remote location and receive critical status updates.
Wireless Valve Activation
Open or close electronic wireless valves using a handheld transmitter.
Emergency Notification
Receive critical status updates by email, phone, cell phone, or PDA if equipment fails.
Conveyer Control
Control a conveyor motor remotely using a handheld transmitter or dry contact inputs.
Remote Control Relay
Use a handheld transmitter or dry contact inputs to control a remote relay.
Problem Notification
Save time in large facilities by activating an overhead notification light when a problem occurs, letting the supervisor know exactly where to go.
Warehouse Lighting
Control a warehouse lighting system wirelessly by using a handheld transmitter or by wiring switches to a stationary transmitter.
Data Logging
Wirelessly acquire and log various data from a remote location using our analog data transmitters and receivers.
Dust Suppression
Use wireless Radio Frequency transmitters and receivers to operate your dust suppression system.
Door / Gate Operation
Save time by opening and closing doors or gates with handheld transmitters from inside your truck.
Stacker Control
Start and stop your stacker using a handheld transmitter or wire a switch into a stationary transmitter.
Proximity Detection
Mount a transmitter with adjustable range on heavy equipment, mount a receiver in a “blind spot,” and then set up the receiver to sound an alarm or turn on a light whenever the equipment is operating in the area.
Activation of Training Tools
Control targets and other training tools via a handheld transmitter.
Perimeter Detection
Use our wireless transmitters and receivers in conjunction with a Perimeter Sensor to automatically shut down dangerous equipment if the perimeter is broken.
Chemical Level Monitoring
Monitor water chlorination or other chemicals remotely.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
Retrofit your truck with a wireless data transmitter and receiver to monitor your tire pressure from the cab.
Traffic Signals
Avoid having to lay new wire by using wireless transmitters and receivers to control traffic signs such as “Railroad Crossing Ahead” when a train is present.
Grain Elevators
Our wireless transmitters and receivers can be used to monitor grain elevator conditions or control different functions.
Alarm Activation
Activate an alarm in the event of a gate opening, perimeter breach, power shut down, etc.
Security Gate
Deploy a security barrier or tire puncture strip if a gate is breached.
Temperature Monitoring
Remotely monitor soil, water, or air temperatures from anywhere in North America.
Augers
Start and stop your grain auger with a handheld transmitter.
Boat Lifts
A multi-button handheld transmitter can be used to operate your boat lift.
Freight Loading
Handheld transmitters can be used for crane control, and analog data transmitters can be used to send the load information wirelessly to another location.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of equipment can be controlled wirelessly?
Anything that can be switched on/off or forward/backward, or that sends and receives data, can be controlled wirelessly — from pumps and valves to gates, conveyors, and lighting.
