XB5RFA02 (SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC)

The XB5RFA02 is an AC/DC Transmitter and Programmable Receiver with plastic head. When the operator pushes the button, mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy, which sends one-time radio message to the receiver. The batteryless solution offers permanent availability, benefits the environment and eliminates costly battery maintenance, re-charging and recycling. As the wireless signals can be passed through doors, walls and floors, the operators can now enjoy greater freedom and mobility by remotely controlling machines at a distance of up to 25 meters in a factory environment. Additionally, customers can add external antenna to extend the coverage range and have more than one unit controlling the same equipment, i.e. many buttons can turn on/off a single receiver and vice versa, which becomes critical for industries where people and equipment constantly move around.
