Crane Overload Limiter
-
Introduction:
This overload limiter is designed for double girder cranes, which consists of two parts: resistance strain sensor and control instrument. It is a bearing seat type limiter installed on the shaft of wire rope drums.
The overload limiter has the function of alarming and cutting off the power supply of the corresponding lifting circuit of the crane in case of moderate overload, and can also display the approximate weight of the lifted object. It is an important equipment that integrates display, control, and alarm functions.

Working Principle
The load of the crane is detected by sensors and the weight signal is converted into a voltage signal proportional to the weight. After amplifying this signal inside the sensor, it is connected to the control instrument through a signal line and converted into a digital signal through an analog/digital converter. Then, the microcontroller processes the data for display and judgment, and controls the A and B hooks, A+B hooks, and lifting control circuits of the crane A and B based on each weight value and total weight value.
