Sharpsville, PA, USA (June 20, 2006) - Cattron Group International, a leading global manufacturer of remote control products and professional services for the industrial, mining, commercial mobile and railroad markets, announced today the introduction of the new Remtron brand Pump Boss II® radio remote control system. The company says the Pump Boss II increases productivity in concrete pumping operations by providing a rugged, reliable system which makes pumping a one-man job.
The Pump Boss II system employs Remtron's PosiLink(TM) protocol to ensure secure control of concrete line pumps. Designed and built to perform in tough construction environments, both transmitter and receiver are enclosed in IP 66/67 - compliant water-tight enclosures.

In the case of signal loss, the Pump Boss II system also incorporates a fail-safe 'Stop' feature which drops all relays within five seconds. Remtron's Auto Link(TM) feature allows the Pump Boss receiver to "learn" the frequency channel and address of a replacement or spare transmitter so that no equipment dismantling or physical configuration is needed. Other features include a transmitter weight of only 11 oz., an operating range up to 1000 feet (line-of-site), extended operation on standard AA batteries, easy installation and a standard one-year warranty.
