ZF Friedrichshafen AG’s distribution partner, Siblik, will be exhibiting the world’s first batteryfree, wireless light switch module based on KNX-RF technology at this year’s Power Days show. Taking place at Messezentrum in Salzburg from 13th-15th March 2019, the exhibition is an information hub for electrical, lighting, and home and building technology.
The module can be used as a light switch, with or without dimming function, and as a shutter switch. The wireless and batteryfree features of the switch mean it is versatile and easy to integrate, allowing significant flexibility during the planning stages.
Already in full production, the wireless light switch module comes ready to install and is configurable via ETS (from ETS5). It is compatible with standard frames and panels for energy harvesting light switch modules, and can also be combined with customer-specific designs and control panels.
The actuation of the unit produces enough electrical energy to transmit a complete KNX-RF protocol in S-mode directly to any KNX-receiver. A low actuation force and low operational noise are additional key benefits of the module.
Siblik Elektrik are operating throughout Austria with headquarters in Vienna. Well-known domestic and international manufacturers of the electric and building technology sector are closely affiliated with Siblik, and have been represented exclusively in Austria for decades. Siblik is a partner of ZF Friedrichshafen AG and proudly presents it’s KNX-RF light switch module.
