Do you know the crane pendant push button and how does it work?

What is pendant push button:

The pendant push button is used to control the hoist of the EOT crane. The crane pendant is also a part of the overhead crane and this device is also referred to as a crane control unit or crane pendant station. The crane control unit is a very important part of the machine. If any mistakes or errors are found in the machine then the crane maintainer checks the crane pendant station first.

The pendant push button worked on the wired electric mechanism and they don't require a battery like radio remote control. A long cable wire connects the crane pendant and hoists known as crane pendant cable. The cable wire is sling from the overhead crane and hung like a pendant, hence it is called a crane pendant push button. With the help of a this device, the overhead crane can be directed in a specific manner. 

 How pendant push button switch works:

The crane pendant switch works on the wired electric systems and gets the electric power the same as the overhead crane gets. The pendant push button switch is a handheld device that is operated by the operator from the ground floor. The operator from the ground control and gives the signal to another operator who is sitting in the overhead crane.

When the operator press the button on the crane pendant and the crane passes the line, at that time the operator also has to walk alongside the overhead crane. The overhead crane can be moved in a direction like long travel, cross travel, and hoisting. The host which is attached to the overhead crane is used for loading and unloading the heavy objects.

The buttons present on the crane pendant push button are interlocked in a pair. That means you cannot use pair of a buttons at the same time. If an up button is pressed at that time you cannot use the down button until the crane reaches to upward direction and release the up button. Similar to the up button pendant push button has on, off, up, down, left, right, forward, and backward buttons.

 Types of pendant push button control:

The crane pendant push button has different types according to their buttons and they are as follows:

a) 2 Buttons: In this type of device, only buttons are used i.e. on and off buttons.

b) 4 Buttons: The 4 buttons device comprises up, down, start and stop buttons.

c) 6 Buttons: The 6 buttons are configured with the up, down, start, stop, left, and right buttons.

d) 8 Buttons: This type of device comprises the up, down, start, stop, left, right, north, and south directions.

e) 10 Buttons: The 10 buttons type are configured with the start, stop, up, down, left, right, north, south, one-speed version, and two-speed version. 

These different types of buttons are used according to their need.

 Benefit of crane pendant switch for EOT crane:

The main advantage of the crane pendant is that it fully worked on the wired systems and doesn't need any battery or charging systems. The crane pendant is connected with the hoist and it has many wired routes for communication. And hence if any defects or lag are found in any wired routes then it switches to another route immediately.

While in the radio remote control if the error persists same as the crane pendant, then the radio remote control stops working instantly for signal transmission. The pendant push buttons switch have a very less chance of outsider attack or external interruption due to the wired connectivity. The crane pendant are suspended from the hoist and hence there is no chance of dropping the device or misplacing the device.

 Epilogue:

The pendant push buttons are connected with the hoists and they don't need a battery or charging system hence it is widely used. The crane pendant has many features and comes in various button types. With all these points you can go for the crane pendant switch.

What is crane pendant push button control and how it works?

Crane pendant:

The crane pendant push button is a device used in the industrial sector to control the EOT crane. This device is attached to the crane with a long cable wire called crane pendant cable. The pendant push button control moves and control the overhead crane in a specific manner. The crane pendant is an important part of the overhead crane is also called a crane pendant station or crane control unit.

The crane pendant is fully worked on the wired systems and hence they don't require the charging system or battery types of equipment. The pendant has push buttons are interlocked horizontally. With the help of a crane pendant push button overhead crane can be conducted in long travel, cross travel, and hoist. Hoisting is used for loading and unloading heavy objects.

How pendant control switch for EOT crane works:

As we know that the crane pendant push button switch is connected with the overhead crane or hoist with the cable wire. This cable wire is suspended from the hoist and hung like a pendant. This pendant push button is operated by the operator to control the hoist like loading and unloading the heavy objects. 

In the overhead crane, an operator sits to control and monitor the crane. While another operator stands on the ground floor to guide and give the signal to another operator through the crane pendant device. The ground operator has to walk along with the overhead crane when the crane passes the cross line due to the wired connectivity. 

While operating the pendant switch the operator has to be very careful because he may be messed up with the obstacles which may be harmful to not only the operator but also the crane objects. The hoist pendant control has many push buttons like on, off, up, down, east, west, forward, backward.

These push buttons are interlocked in a horizontal way that means the two buttons cannot be worked together. If a forward button is pressed at that time reverse button cannot be pressed until the crane reaches to forward destination.

 The characteristic of pendant switch for hoist or crane:

1. The crane pendant can be used in both AC and DC.

2. It has interlocked features for pair of buttons.

3. The device has a good grip so it can be easily handled from one hand.

4. The NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) 4x rating is given to the pendant push button.

5. The device is made in such a way that it prevents shock and corrosion.

6. The crane pendant has been configured with the 8 common circuits and 5-speed point used to move the crane in each direction.

7. The pendant push button circuits are pre-wired and made up of a simple wire connection.

 The primacy of crane pendant push button station:

The crane pendant push button does not affect the external interruption or outsider attack due to the strong wired connection. This provides a fast and secure connection at the time of data transfer. The crane pendant push button is configured with many wired routes for transmission.

So if any issue or error is found while communicating or data transmission at that time it switches to another route and maintains the data transfer between the crane pendant and overhead crane. While in the case of radio remote control if any lag or bugs are found then the transmitter stops working instantly.

 Conclusion:

Due to the wired connection of the crane pendant, it is more in demand for industrial use. Because it provides security and fast communication for the data transfer. The crane pendant push button has its primacy and pitfalls. With all these major points you can go for the crane pendant push button for the EOT crane.

The best quality crane pendant push button is manufactured by the Anand systems engineering Pvt. Ltd. Anand crane pendants are customizable according to the need. They are made in such a way that they can be used in harsh conditions also. The device provides the stability and reliability and can be used for a longer time also.

What is crane pendant push button switch for hoist and EOT crane?

Crane pendant push button switch:

The crane pendant push button is a device that is used to control the hoist or EOT crane. This device is a main part of the EOT crane also called a crane control unit or crane pendant station. The crane inspector or moderator checks it first if any error or interruption is found in the crane control unit. The long cable wire dangles down from the hoist and is attached to the crane pendant and this wire is called crane pendant cable. 

The crane pendant is operated by the operator to control the hoist and crane. The hoist is used for lifting and lowering heavy-duty objects. There are few buttons present on the crane pendant push button that can move the crane in directions like long travel, cross travel, and main hoist. The crane pendant control is equipped with the wired systems and they take the electric power the same as the overhead crane gets.

 How crane pendant switch works:

The overhead crane is operated by the operators with the help of a crane pendant switch. The transmitter is a handheld device that is connected to the crane through a wired system and this transmitter is operated by the operator. There are two persons required for to manage the overhead crane in case of wired systems.

The first man sits in an overhead crane while the other person operates the crane pendant push button station. The person on the ground gives the signal and guide to another operator. When the person presses any button on the transmitter then it sends the signal via the wired systems. The buttons present on the transmitter are interlocked horizontally. That means you cannot press multiple buttons at the same time.

When the overhead crane travels and crosses the line that the operator also has to walk alongside the EOT crane due to the wired systems. The EOT crane pendant has many types like 2 buttons, 4 buttons, 6 buttons, 8 buttons, and 10 buttons. These types have their specification and features.

The main disadvantage of a crane pendant is that the operator has to sit inside the overhead crane which is very risky and another thing is that the ground operator walks along with the crane, here the operator may mess up the obstacles and can fall, sleep or tripped which is potentially dangerous.

 Requirement of crane pendant push button station:

The pendant push button is equipped with many wires and fully works on the wired systems because of this they don't need any charging or battery replacement systems. Due to the wired connection, the transmission does safely and rapidly. The transmission is very secure between the start and endpoint. 

If any slowness or error is found in any route then it immediately changes to the other network so the communication can continue. In the case of radio remote control if there is some error found between the transmitter and receiver then the transmitter suddenly stops working and hence communication is affected.

The crane pendant push button station doesn't affect by the external force or outsider attack due to the end wired connection.   

 Cessation:

The above points show that why there is a requirement for crane pendant push button switch. The crane pendant has some advantages and some pitfalls. From the industrial point of view, there is the necessity of remote control for overhead and hoist cranes. It can be either wired or wireless systems.

The crane pendant switch comes under the wired systems. And this type of device is manufactured by the Anand systems engineering Pvt. Ltd. The pendant push button is made in such a way that it can be used in a harsh conditions also. The device is also configured with stability and reliability. The crane pendant switch is customizable which means they are made according to the customer's requirement.

Do you know the pendant push button switch and how does it work?

Pendant push button switch:

A pendant push button switch is used to control the overhead crane. The crane pendant push button is connected to the crane with a long cable wire known as crane pendant cable. The cable is suspended from the hoist and hung like a pendant that's why it is known as a pendant push button. The pendant push button has many buttons like start, stop, up, down, left, right, forward, and backward to control the overhead crane. It is directly connected with the crane and gets a power supply same as the crane gets. The wire is connected to the hoist and used by an operator to control the crane. The operator has to move alongside the crane when it crosses the runaway. There are 2 operators needed, one who sits in the cabin of overhead crane and other operator guide and gives the signal to the operator from the ground. 

 Working principle of Crane Pendant:

The crane pendant refers to the main part of the EOT crane which is connected with wired systems. The crane pendant is also known as the crane control unit or crane pendant station. It is used to controls the hoist from the EOT crane. The crane pendant station fully works on the electrics and wired system so there is no need for the battery to charge the crane pendant. The crane pendant can be worked with the help of 2 operators. One can monitor the crane movement by sitting in the cabin of the crane and the other can manage the overhead crane from the ground. The ground operator can lift and lowering the heavy objects using the pendant. The overhead crane can be moved in particular directions like long travel, cross travel, and lifting and lowering the loads from the hoist. 

 Features of Crane pendant push button:

The crane pendant push button comes with a wired system so there is no disturbance or interruption from the external force while communicating. The crane pendant push buttons device is connected by a wired system. So if there is any dead spot found in the route it won't affect the communication because it switches to another route. While wireless communication stops working if any dead spot is found in the route. Due to the wired connection, the communication is very fast between the crane pendant and the EOT crane. 

The wired network is hidden from the other wired networks. There is no interference with the cable connection because the signal is transmitted through the cable. The final connecting network is programmed to recognize the destination address and then transmit the data to the desired location.

Perhaps the only significant disadvantage of the suspended system is that it places the operator on the periphery of the crane's operating area. This can be a potential hazard, especially for heavy cranes, accidental load drops can injure the operator and can be fatal. In addition, when the operator walks on the runway, watches the crane, and ensures safe and problem-free picking up and lowering of loads, he runs the risk of tripping, slipping, or hitting obstacles.

 Conclusion:

The Crane pendant switch is a part of the crane and is used to control the hoist which is connected to the overhead crane. So to buy wired or wireless remote control is up to you. Both the devices have their advantages and disadvantages. Anand system engineering PVT LTD is the leading crane pendant control manufacturers in India for both crane pendant as well as radio remote control. The crane pendants are made in such a way that they can be used in a harsh conditions also.

Why to choose pendant push button switch

Crane pendant

A Crane pendant is a part of the EOT crane which is used to lift heavy materials or objects. It is also referred to as a crane control unit or crane pendant station. The Crane control unit consider as a main part of the machine because in case of any break down the first person or inspector inspects the machine. The control unit is wired into an electronic machine that is connected to the overhead crane and hung like a pendant that is why it is known as a pendant control unit. The pendant control switch can easily move the crane in a particular direction like up, down, east, west, south, north, etc. 

 Working of crane pendant push button switch:

The EOT crane pendant comes in various button types. It can be a 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 push-button switch. As we press the button on the pendant switch it sends the signal to the control unit which is attached to the EOT crane. However using the pendant switch requires two men, one is on the ground floor for guiding while another man is sitting in the cab of the overhead crane and follows the instruction of the first man.

 The control unit can be connected to the crane itself or many modern cranes. When the operator uses a pendant control switch then the crane crosses the runaway at that time the operator himself walks along with the control unit because of a wired mechanism. When there was no radio remote for the crane at that time the wired crane system was followed by the industries.

   Pros and cons of Pendant switch for hoist:

In a modern time where most of the industries using the wireless remote control for cranes the pendant switch for hoist comes with a wired system so there is a requirement of an operator who can sit in the cabin of an overhead crane and can operate the crane. The main advantage of pendant crane control is that it is a wired system so there is no chance of external interruption. And the pendants are suspended from the hoist so there is no chance of accidentally dropping the control or misplacing it. The pendant control doesn't require a charging system because it is fully functional on a wired system.

Since it is a wired system so there is a risk for operators who are sitting in the cab of the crane because if there is a heavy-duty load on the hoist where an accidental drop load occurs so will result in potential harm to the operator. There is another potential risk of fatal injury for the operator who walks alongside the crane to monitor and guide the other operator. In between this, the operator is at the risk of tripping, slipping falling onto the risky obstacles. Another risk is that the wire of the crane pendant control switch is directly connected to the crane which can be caught up in the machine that will cause damage to the control system as well as the other crane parts also.

 Need of Pendant control:

Pendant push-button control or simply hoist pendant control are directly connected to the crane with the wired and it is used to control the crane from the ground level. To eliminate the need for a guidance operator another type of device is used called a radio remote control that controls the overhead crane from a very far distance. So choosing a wired or wireless control for a crane is up to you.

 Conclusion:

For safety and risk avoidance obviously, the data pendant switch is better than other devices. And this kind of pendant push button was built by many industries. But the top-quality crane pendant push-button for the crane is only manufactured from Anand systems engineering private limited. This crane pendant is manufactured in such a way that it can use for a long time and perform well in harsh conditions as well.

What is a pendant push button switch and how does it works?

Pendant push button:

The pendant push button is used to control the EOT crane or hoist. The crane pendant station controls the overhead crane with a wired mechanism. Many wire cables are connected from the pendant to the control panel. As soon as the switch button is pressed on the control panel then it immediately provides power to the motors. The crane pendant can control the many moments of the crane including the start and stop buttons. The term crane pendant is designed and commonly used to describe the control unit connected to the crane's electronic mechanism. The device is connected to a long cable and hung from an overhead crane like a pendant. Also known as overhang control or overhang control unit. It draws energy from the same power source that powers the crane itself.

 How does the pendant push button switch work?

The pendant push button station works can work with the help of two men. The one who is on the ground floor guiding another man sitting in the cab of an overhead crane or it can be controlled from the ground using buttons or toggle controllers. This control unit can be connected to the crane itself or, like many modern cranes, it can be a remote radio unit. The operator uses a pendant button with a cable attached to the crane and suspended from the overhead crane to control the crane. When the crane crosses the runway, the operator walks alongside the crane. You can use the pendant to control the lifting of the load. Until about ten years ago, all bridge cranes were operated by wired suspension control devices. Industrial machinery, especially EOT Crane & Hoist can be easily controlled from the factory floor. Several combinations of switches can be made using a single speed, double speed, or potentiometer. Any number of buttons requires only four cables of 0.25sq mm main. The button has a top layer of silicones to protect the label from the button.

Types of push-button pendants:

Pendant push button control has many types and they are as follows:

1) Two Buttons:

The EOT crane can be operated in only 2 directions i.e. one up and another in the down direction.

2) Four Buttons:

The four-button push-button pendant switch can control the crane in an up, down, start and stop manner.

3) Six Buttons:

The six-button can comprise the overhead crane in on, off, east, west, up, and down directions respectively.

4) Eight Buttons:

The eight buttons of the pendant switch comprise the hoist crane in up, down, on, off, east, west, north, and south direction.

5) Ten Buttons:

 The ten button push-button switch can operate the EOT crane in on, off, up, down, east, west, north, south, one-speed version, and two-speed version in a respective manner.

 Reason for choosing pendant control switch:

A pendant control device, or simply a crane pendant device, is a crane control device connected to a crane mechanism. This type of devices are used to control EOT crane operations from the ground without the guidance of ground crews. Nowadays, many cranes use radio-operated control equipment, which can be controlled from a distance. Either the radio remote control or pendant crane control both the devices and their own some advantages and some cons so choosing the controlling the device for EOT cranes is absolutely up to you.

Many industries built the pendant for EOT cranes but the best crane pendant control manufacturers in India you will only get from the Anand systems engineering privately limited. Anand pendant cranes are designed in such a way that they can use for harsh conditions industrial purposes. This pendant switch reduces the manpower because sometimes another man is required to operate the cranes.
