Overload Limiter for Double‑Girder Crane

The load limiter (double-girder dedicated) is specially designed for large-capacity electric hoists paired with double-girder bridge cranes, adopting pin-type, plate-ring or pressure sensors installed at the fixed pulley block shaft or hook crossbeam to accurately detect hoisting load. Covering capacities from 5t to 500t, it automatically cuts off hoisting power with audible and visual alarm upon overload, featuring dual-channel redundancy, high accuracy and anti-interference, serving as a core safety protection device for double-girder heavy-duty lifting operations.

    Introduction

    The double-girder dedicated load limiter is optimized for the large-capacity and long-span characteristics of double-girder cranes. Sensors adopt pin-type replacing the fixed pulley shaft, plate-ring series-connected at the wire rope fixed end, or pressure-type installed below the pulley seat, with flexible installation without changing the original structure. The control instrument uses an industrial-grade microprocessor, supporting multi-channel sensor signal acquisition and redundant comparison; overload detected by any channel triggers protection. Featuring real-time load display, peak hold, fault self-diagnosis and RS485 communication, it can be connected to the crane safety monitoring system, complying with national crane safety regulations and double-girder crane special requirements, widely used in machinery manufacturing, metallurgy, shipbuilding and other large-capacity double-girder lifting applications.

    Our Advantage

    High-accuracy measurement for large capacity

    Using alloy steel high-precision sensors with overall accuracy ±2%, compatible with 5t~500t large-capacity double-girder electric hoists, maintaining stable and accurate measurement even under long-term full-load operation, eliminating false and missed alarms.

    Multiple installation methods for double-girder

    Three sensor types—pin-type, plate-ring and pressure-type—are available, flexibly selectable according to the fixed pulley block structure of double-girder cranes, without modifying original mechanical structure, facilitating renovation and upgrading.

    Dual-channel redundancy for safety

    Supports dual-channel sensor signal acquisition and cross-comparison; overload detected by either channel immediately triggers protection, ensuring safety even if one sensor fails, with safety margin far higher than single-channel products.

    Strong anti-interference

    Sensor signals transmitted via shielded cables, control instrument built-in with optoelectronic isolation and digital filtering circuits, effectively resisting strong electromagnetic interference from inverters and electromagnetic chucks, adapting to complex electromagnetic environments in double-girder workshops.

    Rich functions with networked monitoring

    Featuring load display, peak hold, fault self-diagnosis, RS485/4-20mA output, it can be connected to the crane safety monitoring system for remote load monitoring and data tracing, meeting intelligent management requirements.
