BIBI 850-BL Use and maintenance manual Rev.00
45
A wait time of approximately 3 seconds has been included to allow the operator to check for
the absence of bystanders in the danger zone if the “platform descent” button remains depressed
once the anti-crushing position has been reached. The aforementioned audible warning devices
and indicator lights continue to operate during this period of time.
Once the time has passed, the descent restarts to the desired height.
3.3.2 Permitted inclination monitoring device
Since platform BIBI 850-BL complies with the “Enhanced stability criteria for limited size of
work platforms” (ref. point 5.4.1.5 EN280:2013), there would be no need for a stability
monitoring system conforming to the stability parameters established by the technical
regulations in force.
However, for the purpose of safeguarding the operators from all serious risks, ALMAC S.r.l.
has installed, as part of the standard equipment, an electronic device that monitors maximum
permitted inclination so as to prevent the machine from tipping over and causing serious
injuries.
This device is installed in the electric control panel and can only be accessed by qualified
operators.
This is controlled by a modern electronic control unit that works along with the track width
control device (safety limit switch on track levelling) to basket ascent if permitted maximum
inclination is exceeded, thereby avoiding unstable positions. If the maximum inclination height
is reached a warning buzzer sounds and the indicator lights on the console is lit:
The device signals can vary as follows:
Signallin
g Platform inclination
None
- Lateral between 0° and 1°
- Longitudinal 0° and 1
Indicator light
steady
- Lateral >1°
- Longitudinal > 1°
