Energy harvesting wireless switch module AFIM-5002

Safety instructions

1. Application field
Batteryless and wireless RF switch module.

2. Product description
The energy harvesting wireless switch module includes a generator which converts the mechanical energy of the
actuation into electrical energy. The energy is used for the RF electronics and the data is transmitted without
batteries and wires via 915 MHz to a receiver. The energy harvesting wireless switch module is network-compatible.
A flexible ‟Pairing” allows the operation of several receivers with one switch module (and vice versa). Each wireless
RF switch module has a ‟Unique ID” which excludes a mutual interference between different RF-switch modules.
