June 5, 2023 - CBS ArcSafe, a leading manufacturer of remote racking and switching solutions for low- and medium-voltage switchgear, is pleased to introduce the redesigned RSO-IAR-M18, RSO-IIID-M18, and RSO-IV-M18 remote switch operator (RSO) systems. Designed for performance and convenience, the new class of RSOs are all powered by Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM rechargeable batteries. They are also lighter weight and offer a simpler interface and more detailed displays and indicators than previous models. Moving from the legacy lead-acid battery to the M18 battery gave CBS ArcSafe the opportunity to enhance and upgrade the user experience and functionality. Some of the design features that set the new version apart include:
- 22% smaller and 40% lighter than previous RSO versions
- Enhanced user interface
- Faster settings input
- Powered by Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM batteries
- 5Ah battery included, fits up to 12Ah (Milwaukee M18 version only)
- Compatible with all legacy CBS ArcSafe actuators and racking devices
- A newly designed radio remote with a range up to 300 feet
