For safe Crane2Crane™ approach at high, medium or low speeds the IRCDS-HSD-II™ provides the ultimate continuous ‘hand-shake’ protection. Effective at the standard 400M distance format, continuous communication between cranes is assured, any loss between the partners systems will inhibit the cranes from travelling in the opposing ‘risk’ directions. A system upgrade can be supplied for gantries or cranes of a greater distance than 400M A BatBak™ (Battery Back Up System) ensures communication is maintained thus protection levels are maintained even when the a particular crane is off line for maintenance or repair work.
For safe Crane2Crane™ approach at high, medium or low speeds the COMMANDER™ Morsonic-II™ provides continuous half duplex ‘hand-shake’ protection for the maximum distance, effective at the standard 30M distance format, continuous operation when cranes are permitted to part the failsafe hardware will detect loss of communication between cranes if a failure occurs then the system will inhibit the cranes from travelling in the opposing ‘risk’ directions. A system back up, the BatBak™ (Battery Back Up System) ensures communication is maintained in an active mode thus to maintained protection levels even when the particular crane is off line for maintenance or repair work.
For safe Crane2Crane™ approach at high, medium or low speeds the Commander™ MDSµP-II-NB™ provides continuous narrow beam monitoring for obstructions including structures in a horizontal axis to the direction of travel. The effective detection range falls within approximately 60-100M, performance being dependant on a good reflective target this being a solid flat surface. For maximum detection we recommend using a metal reflector of a type such as a such as a flat sheet metal target area fixed to the obstruction (target structure) or for best effect a Tetrahedron™ Tri-corner reflector (optional item when purchasing).
The Commander™ MDSµP-II-NB™ provides continuous wide beam monitoring for obstructions including structures in an angular axis to the direction of travel. Usually reliant on the target area the range is generally 60M.
In built technology eliminates spurious false triggers, these can be set up by the installer using the system programmer shown below.
CDS™ (Collision Avoidance Programmer) fit all device for all versions and is used to program each Collision Avoidance System type during installation. The CDS™ programmer unit connects to the mother and daughter PCB’s. The input settings are stored in memory, this prevents any tampering by unauthorised persons after installation set up.
