How to Remote Control Truck Air Horn

The air horn is pneumatic device designed to create a remarkably loud sound for signaling purpose. Air horns are widely applied to vehicles, such as large semi-trailer trucks, fire trucks, trains, and some ambulances and ships as a signaling device. Someone would like to install air horn in his vehicle.
Recently, one of our customers wants to remote control his air horn in his truck. He needs a momentary remote that he can honk a "LOUD" horn located outside the toolbox in the box of his truck. It is a pneumatic horn that needs approximately 125PSI air. The air has to be momentarily transferred to the horn using a solenoid. The solenoid is controlled by applying 110volts. The 110 volts is obtained by the 3000watt inverter that is also inside of the toolbox in the box of the truck.
Our reply:
We recommend the remote receiver model of one channel ac direct power output and one button transmitter (S1X-AC220+C-1). The being controlled devices can get power supply from the receiver directly when the receiver is power on. The working current is 100V~240V.

The receiver will be mounted next to the solenoid inside the toolbox in the box of the truck. The transmitter can be mounted under the center post of the steering wheel (The transmitter is small enough for concealing).

He can honk the horn using a momentary working mode remote. When he press and hold the remote button, the solenoid will be open and air horn sends out extremely loud noise; When he release the remote button, the solenoid will be closed and air horn stops making a sound.

Short Description of Toggle / Momentary / Latched Working Modes

Generally there are three working modes for rf remote controls: toggle, momentary, latched. Toggle mode is used most often. Controlling lamp, for example, press the button of remote, turn on the lamp; press the button again, turn off the lamp. Momentary mode can be set to control rolling blind or rolling door. Press and hold the button of remote, open the blind or door; release the button, close the blind or door. Both toggle and momentary mode are motivated by single relay, which means you can work these two modes with single button remote. As regards the latched mode, it is motivated by relay group. For relay group, only one relay will be on at a time, e.g. press remote button A, relay A will be on, and relay B will be off; press remote button B, relay B will be on, and relay A will be off. To be more specific, when you control the lamp by latched mode, you should prepare at least two buttons remote. Press button A, the lamp is on; press button B, the lamp is off. Online s...

Remote Control Electromagnetic Lock

Image
Electromagnetic lock is a locking device that consists of an electromagnet and an armature plate. The principle behind an electromagnetic lock is the use of electromagnetism to lock a door when energized. Essentially it consists of an electromagnet attracting a conductor with a force large enough to prevent the door from being opened. That is to say, if only we could cut off power supply and make electromagnet force between electromagnet and armature plate to disappear, the door would be opened. Furthermore, we just try to use a direct dc output momentary remote and one button transmitter to cut off electric power to open the door. The following demonstration will show. At first, we prepare material. The wiring When we supply power to electromagnetic lock, electromagnet will attract armature plate through magnetic force. The door is locked. When we press button, the power supply will be cut off. The door is open as soon as electromagnetic lock unlock instantly. What’s more, t...

AC Lamp is Controlled by Customized Delay Time RF Remote Controller

Image
We recommend 1channel 110V~220V customized delay time controller (S1RD-AC220+C-2). At first, it must be set delay time in advance. According to your own actual requirement, you can set delay time you want. e. g. delay time: 20 seconds. You cannot change delay time once it is set. It is applied for controlling lights, motors, fans, electrically operated door/ lock/windows/ blinds/ cars or other appliances with AC 110~240V or DC 0~28V. You can turn on/off device on the receiver with transmitter from any place within reliable distance (theoretical distance 100m), the wireless RF signal can pass through wall, floors, doors and other obstacles. Wiring: Initial state: B, C = Normally Open; A, B = Normally Closed. AC lamp is wired to normally open terminals B&C. And add additional ac power to AC lamp. The delay time is set in advance. It is non-adjustable.   Press button 1: Turn on the relay (connect B and C, disconnect A and B) After ...
