SAFETY AND STANDARDS

SAFETY IS PALFINGER'S TOP PRIORITY

Thanks to the continuous enhancement and refinement of its products and the use of state-of-the-art technology , PALFINGER systems are among the safest on the market. 

  • Component safety (mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and electronic EN13849, EN61508, EN50128)
  • Stability and derailment safety
  • Opposite track blocking (possible in accordance with EN14033 & SIL2)
  • Height limiting (possible in accordance with EN14033 & SIL2)
  • Other restrictions of movement
  • Earthing and insulation

STABILITY AND DERAILMENT SAFETY

In the highest configuration level, the entire geometry of the device including the track inclination is monitored in two axis. In combination with a real-time standard safety evaluation, this allows the highest level of performance and safety.

STABILITY AND DEVICE UTILISATION UNDER CONSTANT OBSERVATION

For Paltronic 150 systems, the stability status, device utilisation, basket loading and other safety functions including opposite track blocking, height limits and clearance to drive are permanently displayed on the screen of the control stand or on the remote control.

ADJACENT TRACK LIMITER

A simple slew restriction does not constitute an Adjacent Track Limiter. Only in combination with the right technology a reliable non-infringement with the adjacent track can be guaranteed (e.g. sensors, geometry and processors in performance level d acc. to EN 13849).
