This Heavy Duty Modular Radio Receiver is one-half of a two-part remote-
control system. It operates as an ordinary ON/OFF switch but also responds
to the signals of a hand-held transmitter - the other half of the system. The
module is designed for indoor or outdoor use, can control 120 or 240 VAC
loads, and can handle a variety of residential switching applications. By
the push of a button on the face of the transmitter, the user is able to turn
ON/OFF the connected load (lights, pump, etc.) from a remote location*,
safely and conveniently. In addition, a single RC939 transmitter can operate
up to three receivers and is able to "teach" each module a different code.
(Transmitters are sold separately).
The module consists of a receiver unit and a relay box permanently connected
together with a seal between them. The receiver unit is welded and has no user
serviceable parts inside. The relay box has two compartments, one for the 120 volt
coil, double-pole relay and the other for making the field connections.
* The open field range is approximately 100 feet, but depends on many
factors like the age of the battery, proximity of large metal objects, the
location of the receiver and environmental conditions at the time of
transmission.
