The RF-LPS is a low power RF controlled switch which draws only 90
µ
A! Primarily intended as a remote
controlled device for battery saving applications, the RF-LPS is designed to remotely connect and dis-
connect the (battery) power supply to a connected device. The RF-LPS is used in conjunction with the
2CH-REML two channel RF remote transmitter. Pressing the GREEN button on the remote will cause
the RF-LPS to pass the external (battery) power supply of the connected device, turning it ON. Pressing
the RED button interrupts the external (battery) power to the connected device, turning it OFF. The RF-
LPS is constantly powered by two internal Lithium-Ion batteries lasting up to sixteen months. The RF-
LPS is ideal as a power saving (retrofit) interface for applications that are usually constantly powered, but
are not being used for continuous duty.

Without the RF-LPS, the remote device is constantly on, drawing maximum current
.
With the RF-LPS, the supply is switched to the load via RF remote control.
When OFF, the supply drain is only 90 microamps !
