Our company manufactures Alfalfa Cubes for domestic and export use. In order to export this product we must load them into a 40' sea container. We use a potato pillar that has been modified for this purpose. It has a hopper to put the cubes into and screen out the fines, then the cubes travel up an elevator conveyor to a 20' boom conveyor that is inside the sea container. In order to maximize the weight we need the ability to move the boom left to right, up and down, and in or out. We also need to be able to stop and start the 2 conveyors. This is currently being done with electric solenoids over hydraulic and a control box with a cord back to main panel. The main problem with the corded control box is it is quite bulky and the 30' of cord is a chore to drag around. It also tends to get dropped so we have to replace the switches quite often, as well if the cord gets run over we will need to change it out or repair it. So we went looking for a cost effectiv...

Question: Our company manufactures a series of trailers that use 12vdc hydraulics to tilt and lower the decks. We also often install electric winches on trailers and are looking for a momentary remote to operate the trailer and the 12vdc electric winch. Answer: We think 2 channel 12vdc motor remote control system model of 0020481 (S2PF-DC12 & CV-6) is suitable for you. It can be used to control 2 12vdc motors rotating forward and reversal. Maximum working current is up to 30 Amp. This motor remote controller is applicable to control motors of heavy duty electrical devices and equipment  such as your electric trailer and winch. Wiring diagram is as follow. Connect wires of 12vdc power supply to terminals “+” and “-”; connect wires of trailer motor to terminals “A1” and “A2”; connect wires of winch motor to terminals “B1” and “B2”. Setting momentary control mode: connect Jumper-1. Press and hold button 1: trailer motor rotates in positive dir...

Question: I would like to have a centralized remote system to control 8 external blinds open or close without going from here to there. The electric motor of blinds  operates on 240V. Can you suggest something as a solution? Thanks. Answer: You can order 8 receivers for ac motor remote control model of S1FC-AC220 (operating voltage range is AC 100V ~ 240V); 8 external magnetic antennas 0020909, which are respectively installed to each receiver for longer remote distance; and one long range remote transmitter CB-4. As seen in the picture of remote, button A can be set to control motor of blinds forward direction; button C can be set to control reversal direction. Buttons B and D can be set to stop the rotation. Wiring diagram is as follow: Connect live wire to terminal "L" and neutral wire to terminal "N". Then connect three wires of blind motor to terminals "UP", "COMMON" and "DOWN". Press butto...
