Tech-Bulletin for
MLTX Lower Case Update
This bulletin is generated as reference and notice
for those of you who have Telemotive MLTX systems (either licensed
or non-licensed). While the MLTX continues to be one of the best
transmitters on the market, some users have had a problem with the
battery post connections due to over-tightening the battery hold
down screws or thumb screws when installing a new battery.
The illustrations below show the old design of the spring loaded
battery posts in the bottom of the MLTX housing.
Below shows the illustration of the new lower
housing with longer pins, recessed pin support, and a longer pin
stroke.
This picture shows the old MLTX transmitter housing.
This picture shows the new MLTX transmitter housing.
You can really see the difference in the length of the pins, and the
recessed pin supports.
These housings are now in stock and available for
shipment. It is important to note that on the “First Generation”
MLTX transmitters, the transmitters will have to be sent in to get
the lower housing updated, and the switch and circuit board
configurations create problems with the new pin supports.
Second Generation MLTX transmitters are a direct replacement for
this new lower housing, and the replacement can be made in the
field.
Regarding batteries, Mr. Ben Stoller of Telemotive (Magnetek)
states: “Any of the batteries for an MLTX will work with this new
lower housing.
If you need assistance identifying your MLTX transmitter(s) as first
or second generation, please contact us. For additional information
please call Eric Brown at Engineered Lifting Systems 866-756-1200,
