FAQ
What Voltage does Sesam use?
The Sesam Transmitter runs on 2xAA batteries.
The Sesam Receiver runs on 12-24 Volts DC (Direct Current).
What is the transmission power of Sesam?
Sesam transmits at a max output power of 5 mW.
Can Sesam handle the Industrial Environment?
The transmitters are sturdily designed, with a shock-resistant edge guard. Each transmitter is class IP67, and can be exposed to extreme environments with dust, humidity and water without interruption.
Are Sesam's transmissions safe?
The Sesam 800 Mobile system utilizes the 915 MHz frequency band with 12-channel automatic frequency selection. The system has an excellent response time, so the system immediately halts the selected function when the stop button is released.
Communication between the transmitter and receiver is two-way, which allows a feedback indicator on the transmitter to show when a relay is active. The system uses 16.7 million unique codes. Checksums ensure error-free message transmission. For applications with even higher security requirements, the system can be configured for encrypted transmissions.
What if my application moves or vibrates a lot?
Sesam receivers come with a fiberglass reinforced enclosure, equipped with a diaphragm vent, and designed to be used in extreme environments that have high requirements on tolerances for shock, vibration and more.
What is the Jupiter Era 8B?
The Remotus Jupiter Era 8B is a robust handheld transmitter for heavy-duty lifting and industrial control – eight two-stage push buttons give up to 16 functions, with a graphical display and LED status indicators.
What power does the Jupiter Era 8B run on?
The transmitter runs on a 3.7V / 1.9Ah lithium battery, good for roughly 40 hours of use. Output power is adaptive between 1–10mW to minimise radio interference.
What frequency does Jupiter Era transmit on?
FM GMSK in the 433–434MHz band.
Is the Jupiter Era emergency stop function certified?
Yes – the emergency-stop function on the Jupiter series is certified to Performance Level d, Category 3 under EN ISO 13849-1.
Can Jupiter Era handle harsh industrial environments?
The transmitter is sealed to IP67 (dust-tight and washdown-proof) and rated for −25°C to +55°C operation.
What receiver does Jupiter Era pair with?
The Remotus T-Rx 500 – a shock-resistant, waterproof (IP67) aluminium-housed receiver with up to 24 digital outputs plus two dual safety outputs (RCSS), also certified to EN ISO 13849-1, Category 3, PL d.
