Battery Back-Up System Magnet Lift Control
Battery Back-Up Units are used to provide 20 minutes of emergency power to the magnets in the event of an interruption of power to the crane. The Battery Back-Up System is designed for use with the Walker SSC Controlmaster Solid State Digital Power Converter/Magnet Controller and Traditional Walker PCCU Controller. This unit provides a highly regulated charging system that never requires adjustment in the field to provide maximum battery life with minimal maintenance. The charging system monitors both the charging voltage and the charging current. A PLC monitors the data and keeps the batteries at the correct float voltage regardless of line fluctuations.
Outdoor enclosures are available upon request.
