 WIRELESS TELEMETRY CONTROL WITH THE
12-K SERIES
INSTACON 12-K is a two-way digital
radio telemetry control system that replaces wired control systems. It provides
confirmation, via a wireless link, that a requested function has been done. Wire links,
which are costly to maintain, are replaced by INSTACON 12-K, to increase operator and
machine efficiency and safety.
 A typical INSTACON 12-K system consists of two or more transceivers. One
transceiver controls the functions of a machine via a digital radio link. Once the
requested function is done, the second transceiver radios back a confirmation to the
operator.
Here are the highlights:
Microprocessor-Controlled Receivers
Time Multiple Sharing (TMS)
Replaces Wire Links
Reduces Installation &
Maintenance Costs
VHF Band Operation
Easy Interface to Controlled
Machine
Provides Positive Function
Indication
Multiple Units May Be Combined
INSTACON 12-K applications include mobile side loaders and
straddle cranes that handle intermodal freight containers in railroad yards and marine
terminals.
Before, control of the spreader bar was via a wired line, which spooled off a reel
as the container moved. This spooling action could cause many failures due to constant
movement in a harsh environment. INSTACON 12-K replaces these wire-control links, reducing
installation costs and improving reliability while providing a positive measure of control
even when the operator is unsighted from the machine function.
Other applications include: remote control of valves in irrigation systems, oil
and gas pipelines and refineries; and control of conveyors, bucket loaders, and hopper
loaders in quarry, mine and grain processing operations.
