Hook Inclination Monitoring
Angle Sensor
A dual-axis angle sensor designed to detect and mitigate off-axis SidePull loading during crane hoisting. The module continuously monitors hook alignment and triggers configurable interlocks to protect wire rope, rope guide, hoist mechanisms, and structural components — integrating directly with IntelliKran PLCs.
Sensor Accuracy
±0.3°, dual-axis X/Y
Interlock Safety
5 programmable outputs for motion trip logic
Wireless Access
Remote monitoring, setup, and calibration
Environment
24V DC, IP67, -40°C to +85°C
Functional Characteristics
- Continuous dual-axis hook inclination monitoring in X and Y axes
- Direction-specific SidePull detection: X+, X-, Y+, and Y-
- Real-time angular deviation evaluation against configurable thresholds
- Internal SidePull event counting for operational statistics
- Programmable digital interlock outputs for hoisting motion safety
Output Control Logic
- Output 1: Trip hoisting (UP) on SidePull detection in any axis
- Output 2: Trip hoisting on X+ axis SidePull
- Output 3: Trip hoisting on X- axis SidePull
- Output 4: Trip hoisting on Y+ axis SidePull
- Output 5: Trip hoisting on Y- axis SidePull
