The Alpha 3000 series are highly durable, reliable, and safe industrial radio remote control system.
The versatile features of the Alpha 3000 series permit their usage in many different radio remote
control applications that required 2-step or 3-step pushbutton controls. The system can be used to
control tower cranes, factory cranes, monorail systems, multiple hoists, trolleys, mining equipment,
building construction equipment, automatic control systems, and many others.
The Alpha 3000 radio remote control systems incorporate numerous redundant safety circuits that
guaranty maximum security and ensure the system is resistant to outside interference. The major
features of the Alpha 3000 series are as follow:
*
The system uses advanced 16+1bit microprocessor control with highly evolved software that has
redundant error checking and correcting capabilities to ensure 100% error-free transmission,
decoding, and control of all output relays. This highly evolved software includes CRC (cyclical
redundancy check codes) and Hamming Codes (error recovery) programming.
*
To insure maximum operating safety, the Alpha 3000 system incorporates numerous important
safety features. Some of these built-in safety features include transmitter pushbutton
self-diagnosing during initial startup, transmitter low-voltage detection and warning, receiver
self-diagnosing, and MAIN deactivation when transmitter is in sleep mode, when strong RF
interference is detected, and when the transmitter is out of receiving range.
*
The transmitter encoder and receiver decoder both utilize advanced microprocessor control. The
availability of 65,536 sets of unique ID codes + 63 distinct RF channels will ensure that only
commands from the matching control transmitter can be carried out without any interference
from other radio systems.
*
For added safety, the system also incorporates special type of safety MAIN relay. If the safety
MAIN relay becomes defective (fails to open or close during operation), it will signal the central
system to shut down immediately to avoid the possibility of any accidents occurring.
*
63 sets of user-adjustable receiving RF channels via simple dip-switch settings.
*
100% waterproofed transmitter and receiver enclosures (IP65 rated), including the battery
compartment.
Each Alpha 3000 series radio remote control system consists of a water-resistant IP65 handheld
transmitter and receiver. The transmitter casing is molded using industrial strength composite
materials (Nylon + Fiberglass) which are impervious to dust, water, oil, acids, alkaline, heat, sunlight
and as well as being resistant to deformation due to long term use in harsh environments. The
industry’s best 2-step & 3-step pushbuttons are also constructed from industrial strength composite
materials with a minimum of up to one million press cycles. For power savings, the transmitter is
designed with an ultra high efficiency power saving circuit that requires only four “AA” size alkaline
batteries for more than 200 hours of continuos operation between battery replacements.
