Control cabinet - crane B/R17/R01/R02 PKS-4\W01

Crane control switchgear PKS-4\W01 – a reliable control element

The PKS-4\W01 control switchgear is a solid and functional device designed for controlling cranes. It finds application in lowering and lifting systems, providing precise and safe control over movement. Its construction, made of durable plastic, guarantees resistance to mechanical damage and environmental conditions.

Construction and application

The PKS-4\W01 switchgear has been designed with demanding working conditions in mind, typical for industry and construction. The housing with an IP65 protection rating protects internal components from dust and moisture, ensuring reliable operation even in difficult conditions. The yellow color of the housing cover makes it easier to identify the switchgear in the workspace. The device has four control positions, allowing comprehensive management of crane movement.

Advantages and benefits

• Durable construction: The plastic housing provides resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion.

• High degree of protection: IP65 guarantees protection against dust and water jets, allowing operation in difficult environmental conditions.

• Adapted to work with various loads: Rated operating current of 1.6 A for AC-15 at 600 V allows control of various devices.

• Safety of use: The switchgear meets the requirements of safety standards PN EN 60204-32, PN EN 60947-1, PN-EN 60947-5-1 and PN-EN 60947-5-5, as well as machinery (2006/42/WE) and low-voltage (2014/35/UE) directives.

• Compact dimensions: Dimensions of 233 mm x 80 mm x 69 mm make it easy to mount in limited space.

• Versatility: Designed for controlling lowering and lifting movements.

Technical specifications – key parameters

The PKS-4\W01 switchgear is equipped with safety buttons and start/stop buttons, enabling intuitive operation of the crane. Connection cables with a cross-section of 1…2.5 mm² (solid) or 0.75…1.5 mm² (stranded) ensure a safe and stable electrical connection. The device is adapted to work in a wide range of ambient temperatures (-40°C to +70°C). Additionally, the switchgear is characterized by high mechanical durability (300 thousand switching cycles) and connection durability (200 thousand cycles at rated parameters). The rated continuous current Iu is 10 A.
