Applications
Work Light Strips for Bright Cabinet Illumination
Banner’s WLS28 Work Light Strips provide numerous energy-efficient solutions for illuminating work areas and enclosure interiors with intense, long-lasting and durable cool white light. These LED lighting strips not only provide even, extremely bright cabinet illumination, but they also conveniently fit in the enclosure and can be plugged into any local power source.
STS Collision Avoidance
Detect cranes and warn operators of impending danger
Rubber Tire Gantry (RTG) Collision Avoidance
Since RTG cranes are hauling such large loads, it is vital to ensure they move safely throughout the port area to avoid collisions. A sensing solution is needed to effectively implement collision avoidance for port cranes.
Reach Stacker Status
Visual indication is an easy, effective way to communicate status to keep equipment operating efficiently and increase productivity. Intensely bright beacon lights are highly visible during daylight and indicate the condition of the spreader twist locks to the operator cabin to ensure a secure lift. The beacon lights feature intense levels of light output and are very rugged and durable, making them ideal for outdoor indication applications.
Crane-to-Crane Communication
Applications involving such large machinery can make wiring difficult and unsafe. Fortunately, wireless solutions allow for easy transmission of distance data. Various wireless devices can be setup up between cranes so multiple cranes can service the same area. Wireless products are also offered in rugged housing making them suitable for outdoor environments. Using wireless equipment to accurately monitor the cranes prevents costly repairs or replacements.
