It expects to be able to deliver the 24-pin MFSHL receiver by the end of the year.

The new connector has 15 outputs, two inputs and an emergency stop, and an 85dB piezo-electric horn. The control’s maximum working range of between 20m and 30m on a transmission frequency of 865.35. Up to 20 systems can operate in the same facility at the same time because the receiver only sends information 1% of the time.

The system builds on the original plug-in MFSHL radio remote control receiver launched two years ago, which has seven relays and an emergency stop.

Hetronic is also planning to integrate the receiver with the push-button Ergo range of radio remote control transmitters.
