Installing the electrical system housing

Depending on the crane design, an electrical system housing is now installed, or one of the versions in the following or previous sections.

 

Only with a control in the electrical system housing

This section only applies when the jib crane control is placed in an electrical system housing.

 

Installing the electrical system housing

Warnung Vorsicht

Malfunction in the event of horizontal installation!

If the electrical system housing is installed horizontally, the contactors in the electrical system housing may not switch correctly. This may cause a malfunction.

Install the electrical system housing vertically.

 

The figures show the installation of an electrical system housing suspended downwards on the trolley power supply side. The installation of an electrical system housing pointing upwards, or an electrical system housing suspended on the other side, is, essentially, no different.

 

 

Vertical square tube

 

Electrical system housing

Horizontal square tube

*   Lay the horizontal square tube onto the jib arm so that the trolley power supply cable carrier does not collide with the electrical system housing.

*   Screw on the horizontal square tube with clamping claws. 23 Nm.

*   Screw the electrical system housing with threaded bracket onto the vertical square tube.

*   Push the vertical square tube with a pipe clamp onto the horizontal square tube.

*   Screw the pipe clamp tight. 23 Nm.

 

 

Guiding cables into the electrical system housing

The figures show the electrical system housing when there is a direct control. Guiding the cables when there is an electrical system housing is, essentially, no different.

 

 

Cable bushing

Cable ends

Connection cable

 

*   Push the cable through the cable bushing.

*   Insert the cable bushing into the electrical system housing.

 

 

Connecting the cables

*   Connect the cables in the electrical system housing. See the wiring diagram.

 

 

Closing the electrical system housing

Housing cover

 

*   Place the housing cover onto the bottom section of the electrical system housing.

*   Push the housing cover on until it clicks into place from above and below.
