RATED CAPACITY INDICATOR/LIMITER OPERATION

F2108-2

DEFINITIONSRated Capacity Indicator (RCI) — is a system of deviceswhich automatically provides an audible/visual signal whenthe actual load approaches, reaches and/or exceeds therated capacity value when applied to crane.

Rated Capacity Limiter (RCL) — is a system of deviceswhich automatically provides an audible/visual signal whenthe loading conditions approaches, reaches and/orexceeds the rated capacity value when applied to crane.When the actual load exceeds the rated capacity, the systemsupplies a signal to disable system.

NOTE: In this publication the Rated Capacity Indicator andLimiter information is combined, with the initialsRCL representing both systems.

The limiter is turned on/off in RCI Fault Response Data Boxon Configuration Screen. Fault response options are notallowed in some countries. In most of Europe it is illegal todisable the RCL alarms and limiter shut down. The faultresponses can not be turned off if the crane has beenprogrammed for use in these countries.

If the RCL crane function lockout is enabled, the controllerdisables the following crane functions until the overloadcondition is corrected:

• Hoist up.

• Boom down (or up if boom is raised above itsmaximum chart angle).

• Luffing jib down (or up if jib is raised above itsmaximum chart angle).

GENERALThe purpose of this publication is to provide qualifiedoperators with operating instructions for the Manitowoc RCL.The system is designed to aid the operator in identifyingoverload conditions, which can cause structural failure of theboom and jib or loss of stability (tipping).

The RCL GUI (Graphic User Interface) screen is mounted onthe front console in the operator’s cab. The graphic icons aredesigned to be universal for all languages. English or metricvalues are determined by the program number, typicallyEnglish for domestic (USA) and metric for foreign countries.

The RCL monitors signals from the load and angle sensors.These signals determine the loads suspended from thecrane and the distance (radius) of each load from thecenterline of rotation. The load and radius information foreach drum is compared to the selected capacity charts and atotal rated capacity of the crane is calculated.

A rotating amber light and continuous tone horn are mountedon the outside of the operator’s cab to alert job site personnelto an overload or tipping condition.

WARNINGOverload Hazard!

The RCL has been installed on crane to aid operator.

Presence of RCL on crane in no way substitutes for, orlessens, requi rement that operator knowledge,experience, and judgment are required to ensure safeoperation of crane.

If RCL is not configured correctly, it will not properly senseload and alert operator to overload conditions. Beforeusing RCL, operator sha l l read and understandinstructions in this publication.
