The crane could also have two sets control devices, such as: pendant + remote control or cabin + remote control. Two control modes could not be used together for safety.
Electric protection system
Short circuit protection
Automatic air-breaker switch in main power circuit as short circuit protection of the crane control circuit.
Voltage-loss protection
Circuit structure has Voltage-loss protect function, the start button must be repressed to restart the crane when power restoration after break in case of the crane automatic operating.
Emergency power switch
- Rotating reset type emergency power switch like a red mushroom used for switching off power quickly in emergency condition.
