Upgrade Height Indication System – HIS
Description
The Bromma Height Indication System – HIS, measures the distance between the spreader and the container.
It sends a signal to the crane to decelerate, helping the crane operator avoid a hard landing on the container. This can also help prevent slack rope, and reduce the wear and tear on the spreader.
Benefits of the upgrade
- Reduced downtime
- Increased productivity
- Longer spreader life length as a result of less wear
- Reduced maintenance need when hard landings are avoided
The HIS is available both as an option for new spreaders and as an upgrade on spreaders already in operation.
