Crane control box with safety button 1NC, START button (1NO), two-stage buttons: hoist up (2NO) - hoist down (2NO), crane forward (2NO) - crane backward (2NO), left (2NO) - right (2NO) PKS-8\W08

Crane control box – full control and safety

This control box, manufactured by Spamel, is a reliable solution for controlling cranes. It provides precise control over crane movement, as well as increased safety thanks to the built-in safety button. It is a key element for efficient and safe operation in industry, construction and energy.

The box is designed for durability and resistance to harsh working conditions. The housing made of high-quality plastic, in yellow color, provides protection against mechanical damage and external factors. The IP65 protection rating guarantees resistance to dust and water pressure – an ideal solution for industrial environments.

Functionality and application

The PKS-8\W08 box offers a wide range of control functions, allowing precise maneuvering of the crane. It has up to 8 control positions, including:

• Safety button (1NC) – immediate stop of the crane in emergency situations.
• START button (1NO) – crane start.
• Double-action buttons for hoist control (up/down – 2NO each).
• Double-action buttons for crane movement control (forward/backward – 2NO each).
• Double-action buttons for left/right movement control (2NO each).

This allows for smooth and precise control of all crane functions, which translates to increased efficiency and safety. The availability of two speeds allows you to adjust the pace of work to the specifics of the tasks performed.

Solid construction and technical parameters

The box is characterized by a solid construction and high-quality components. The rated operating current for AC-15 is 1.6 A at 600 V, which ensures reliable operation even under heavy loads. The dimensions of the box (80 mm x 377 mm x 69 mm) allow for easy mounting in various configurations. Connection cables with a cross-section of 2× 1...2.5 mm² (solid) or 2× 0.75...1.5 mm² (stranded) ensure a safe and stable electrical connection. Compliance with standards PN EN 60204-32, PN EN 60947-1, PN-EN 60947-5-1 and PN-EN 60947-5-5 guarantees safety of use and compliance with applicable regulations.
