RedLINK technology, this wall-mounted wireless remote controller communicates through radio frequency, meaning that the wireless controller can be placed in a different room than the indoor units and that no wires need to be run through the walls.
The Portable Central Controller allows users the freedom of climate control of up to 16 zones and adjustable fan speed vane positioning from anywhere in the facility. The wall-mounted controller features a traditional wall-mounted thermostat appearance and an easy-to-read backlit display with intuitive operational functions.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
