Transmitters
The required size, shape and electrical specification of the transmitter usually depends upon the particular installation and application. A range of standard transmitter types to cover most applications is available, also a realistically priced custom design service for "specials".
Transmitter part numbers describes types and configurations:
(hover mouse over example below for id breakdown)
Astech also produce versions using infra-red or capacitive signal coupling for special applications.
