Hoists and machine controls
The DSK control pendant is outstandingly suitable for the control of machines. The control pendants are mainly used to control lifting devices from the floor. The sloping angle of the control pendant enables fatigue-free handling to ensure ergonomic working. It is for these reasons that the DSK control pendant received ‘The good industrial standard’ award. The use of thermoplastics means that the Demag DSK control pendant has very good resistance to impacts and shocks. It is also equipped with a climate-proof and flame-retardant housing that is also resistant to oils, lyes, seawater, fats and fuels. The permitted ambient temperature range is between -25°C and +70°C.
A mechanical interlock prevents the simultaneous actuation of controls in opposite directions for safety reasons. In addition, the emergency stop has been designed without any jump function for the forced opening of the normally closed contacts. It is also possible to operate the contact control and direct control functions separately.
