The Centurion remote, designed & manufactured in Europe.
The ultimate remote for the professional user.
CLOSELINK
Two-way CloseLink communication is at the heart of Centurion. Thanks to constant interaction between the handheld device and controller, the operator always has the situation under control, since intervention is possible at any time with maximum efficiency. The Controller constantly checks remote connection with the handheld device; if after a default time (300 ms for manned functions, 5 seconds for on/off functions), a correctly coded signal is not received, the controller goes in standby, resetting all the output to zero. Centurion also uses up to 15 transmission channels and proprietary algorithms for asynchronous communication to reduce the probability of interference with external sources to a minimum.
The 150m capacity in free space and without obstacles makes Centurion ideal for applications for operation at long distances, thanks to GFSK digital modulation that ensures maximum autonomy of 2,500 hours in stand-by and up to 200 hours of continuous transmission with 2 simple AAA batteries.
UNIQUENESS
Each Centurion system has a distinct source code which means it can also work with other Sistematica devices nearby and you can be assured that commands will only be exchanged among components on the same system: the 32 bit code enables distinct identification of over 4 billion handheld device-controller couplings. In the event of replacement it is possible to pair the new handheld device/controller with the due counterpart using a simple procedure, which can even be carried out by the end user.
IMPERMEABILITY
Centurion handheld devices & controllers are perfectly watertight, thanks to protection level IP67.
The volumetric ratios make the Centurion handheld device also ideal in nautical applications, enabling it to float; the impermeability of the controllers enable their installation also in locations exposed to the elements.
COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
- Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) Remote control and telecommunications equipment (Article 3, Article 10 and
Appendix 4).
- EN 60950-1 Health and safety.
- EN 301 489-3 Electromagnetic compatibility.
- EN 300 220-2 Use of radio frequencies spectrum.

- Directive 2004/104/EC Vehicle electromagnetic compatibility.
FCC part 15.249.
DURABILITY
The Centurion handheld devices are all manufactured in highly resistant moulded plastic with a rubber shell that makes its hold firmer and protects against knocks, even if dropped from a height of 4 metres.
The absence of mechanical elements enables functioning in unfavourable environments, with a temperature range from -20°C to +55°C.
ERGONOMICS
Buttons 10mm in diameter, with a wide inter-axis, with clear and effortless contact make the keypad suitable for all users. It is excellent in all those circumstances in which, for various reasons, user sensitivity is reduced or does not permit regulated force. The proportions of the handheld device are the result of appropriate assessment and enable easy, effortless hold. The contained weight and the reduced dimensions make it easy to use for everyone.
PROTECTION FROM POWER SUPPLY POLE IN VERSION
The use of specific components against power supply pole inversion guarantees the integrity of the device during installation and maintenance operations.
OUTPUT PROTECTION
All the output is protected from short circuits, surges and inverse voltage to enable parallel functioning with other actuators. The integration of recirculation diodes on the output make the device particularly indicated to command inductive loads, such as electro and solenoid valves, which no longer require the addition of external diodes.
