Built and tested for unstoppable performance

In many industries, remote controls come into contact with oils, solvents, fuel, salt spray, and abrasive cleaning agents. Our chemical testing places components in controlled exposure chambers to verify seals, protective coatings, and plastics won’t degrade prematurely. We also evaluate how extended saltwater exposure affects the product’s integrity. By ensuring each component resists corrosion, chemical breakdown, and moisture intrusion, our remote controls keep operating smoothly no matter the application.

We conduct thorough durability evaluations to confirm that our products comply with environmental standards, such as EN 60529 (ingress protection) and IEC 60068 (temperature and climate verification). These tests replicate real-world conditions ranging from extreme cold to scorching heat, ensuring that Scanreco remotes continue operating year-round in any environment. By validating against temperature swings, humidity levels, and dust infiltration, we make sure your equipment stays reliable, no matter the weather.

Operators rely on safe and uninterrupted functionality, even where electrical noise or surges are present and when using the remote for long periods of time. Our extensive electric tests measure resilience to short circuits, power fluctuations, and electrical safety, helping us fine-tune circuit layouts for robust operation. For operators’ health and safety our tests show there is no negative effect from radiated frequency exposure. Limits for our products are typically stricter than common personal devices such as mobile phones. 

A remote control is only as effective as its radio link. That’s why our in-house professor of radio technology refines each link architecture before it even enters our radio chambers. As radio performance is one of the key functions we test and validate, we measure frequency hopping, transmission power, and antenna performance to ensure signal clarity and range, even in radio-crowded sites. We also expose systems to potential interference from other devices, verifying our multi-band designs function reliably across diverse local and global frequencies. This ensures operators get quick, responsive control without unexpected signal drops, no matter the environment.

Lab tests are crucial, but nothing replicates on-site realities like field trials. We team up with OEM partners to put prototypes through their paces in actual job settings—from dusty quarries to icy offshore rigs. Feedback from operators drives valuable refinements, ensuring our remote controls feel intuitive, durable, and supportive under authentic workload stresses. By the time we finalize designs, they’ve passed not just lab checks but actual usage scenarios—ensuring you get the reliability, and Never-Stop Technology™ Scanreco is known for.
