Usage Case Introduction: Safety Monitoring at Crane Work Sites BFS01

Collision prevention with proximity detection!

In overhead crane operations, there is a risk of contact accidents due to the proximity of cranes, hooks, and suspended loads. This risk is particularly pronounced in sites where multiple cranes operate in the same area, making it difficult to understand their positional relationships. There are often cases where cranes have approached to a distance that cannot be avoided by the time one becomes aware of it. To prevent such contact accidents, it is crucial to have a system that can detect dangerous proximity conditions early and reliably issue warnings. The "BFS01" from Pal Giken is a safety monitoring sensor that simultaneously measures the distance and speed of objects using microwaves, and can output alarms based on set conditions. It supports the configuration of warning and caution areas, allowing for a gradual understanding of the proximity between cranes. It demonstrates stable detection performance even in outdoor environments, contributing to the prevention of contact accidents. Additionally, its voltage-free contact output makes it easy to integrate with existing alarm devices and indicator lights, enabling flexible system construction tailored to site operations. It is also suitable for permanent installations and can be implemented as a continuous safety measure. For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
