3. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
HC4900 LMI System configuration
HC4900 LMI system comprises a HC 4900 central unit with an IC 4600 console
together with various sensors to record the measured values.
The system operates on the principle of reference/real comparison. The actual
value is compared with the calculated reference values and evaluated by the
system. An overload warning signal is triggered on the display and operating
console once limit values are reached. All machine movements that increase
the load moment are switched off at the same time.
The crane-specific data specified by the manufacturer, such as load capacity
charts, boom weights, centers of gravity and dimensions, are stored in the
central data memory. This data is the reference information used to calculate
the operating conditions. The boom angle and length is measured by means of
length and angle sensors that are mounted on the boom. The crane load is
determined indirectly with the aid of pressure transducers.
