Quantec Rechargeable IR/RF Transmitter (Push/Pull for Attack)
£83.68 (inc VAT: £100.42)
Summary
The C-TEC QT412RXA is a rechargeable infrared and radio frequency transmitter designed specifically for staff working in high-risk environments. This versatile device allows personnel to remotely trigger attack calls via Quantec infrared call points, ceiling receivers or radio receivers, providing an essential safety solution for vulnerable workers.
The transmitter is compatible with both C-TEC’s Quantec and 800 Series call systems, offering flexibility across different installations. When used on Quantec systems, it can trigger attack calls with full IR/RF functionality, whilst on 800 Series systems it provides infrared-only operation for standard and emergency calls. With its compact, wearable design featuring a karabiner clip, the QT412RXA can be easily attached to staff uniforms for immediate access when needed.
Built-in rechargeability eliminates the need for battery replacements, with the device compatible with both QT424/1 single-way and QT424/10 ten-way charging units. The transmitter can be fully customised using the QT423 configurator to generate different call levels, and when used on Quantec systems, can be programmed with unique user IDs or names for enhanced identification and accountability.

FAQ
What systems is the QT412RXA compatible with?
The QT412RXA is compatible with C-TEC’s Quantec and 800 Series call systems. When used with Quantec systems, it functions as an infrared and radio frequency transmitter. On 800 Series systems, it operates in infrared-only mode to trigger standard and emergency calls.
How is the transmitter activated?
The transmitter can be activated in three ways: by pulling the karabiner clip (which requires 1.5kg or 15 Newtons of force) or by pressing either of the two buttons. In its default state, activating any of these controls will trigger an attack call.
What is the coverage range of the QT412RXA?
The transmitter provides 10 metres line-of-sight infrared coverage using 940nm modulated at 38kHz. The radio coverage is typically 60 metres at 868.3MHz, though this depends on environmental factors and the Quantec receiving device used.
How is the transmitter recharged?
The QT412RXA contains an internal rechargeable NiMH battery that can be charged using either a QT424/1 single-way charging unit or a QT424/10 ten-way charging unit. The battery is non-user serviceable.
Can the transmitter be programmed or customised?
Yes, the transmitter’s operation can be tailored using a QT423 configurator. It can be programmed to generate different call levels, and when used on Quantec systems, can also be programmed to include a unique user ID or name. Programming options depend on which system it is used with.
Is the transmitter suitable for outdoor use?
The QT412RXA has an IP41 rating, providing protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and vertically falling water drops. It operates in temperatures from -5°C to +40°C with maximum relative humidity of 95% non-condensing, making it suitable for most indoor environments and some sheltered outdoor applications.
