X Watch XW1 – Height Detection System
| Make: | X Watch |
| Model: | XW1 |
| Restriction: | Height Limitation |
The XW1 Excavator Safety System can be configured to work on a variety of articulated hydraulic plant. Height limitation is controlled using proportional soft-stop hydraulic valves providing accurate and repeatable performance without detriment to the machine. Operation is fail safe and fully automatic with function selection never more than two key presses away.
- All motions are individually controlled with ramped slow down on approach and soft-stop. There is no machine ‘bounce’, overshoot, or undershoot. An optional chassis sensor can be installed to correct for terrain slope.
- A height limit can be either manually keyed in or set automatically by positioning the machine equipment and pressing HERE. Setup is simple, quick, and can be protected with an optional access key switch. All settings are retained and will be active on start-up. Additional tools need to be in their least favourable position when a limit is set.
MAJOR COMPONENTS CARRY A FIVE YEAR GUARANTEE EXCLUDING MIS-USE AND PHYSICAL DAMAGE.
