Sensor for interrupting of lowering
Between the carriage and the flexibly suspended main beam is a
sensor wich gives a signal when the sidelift has reached its bot-
tom position. This interrupts the lowering thus preventing the
lifting chains from excessive slacking which could possibly dama-
ge the equipment.
Inductive sensors
The inductive sensors control the various functions of the con-
tainer attachments.
The sensors are of the type PNP – positive/negative/positive, the
last P indicating that the sensor produces a positive signal when
activated. The sensor is activated when a magnetic object gets
closer than approx 8 mm from the top of the sensor.
The sensor has a yellow light diode, which can be used for check-
ing of the sensor function.
Sensor adjustment and check
1. The gap between sensor and magnetic activator should be
set to 4–5 mm. At a distance of more than 8 mm, the sensor
is deactivated.
2. When the sensor is activated, the yellow diode should be
alight.
3. Check that the sensor is clean and free from grease and that
it is undamaged. (Grease may activate the sensor).
