HoistMonitor is built into a hoist’s electrical panel and supervises and records key data from the hoist. This allows for more efficient planning and scheduling of predictive maintenance, inspections and repairs, R&M said. The data can be accessed directly from the HoistMonitor or from a keypad display in the pendant station when equipped with HoistMonitor Plus.
“Predictive maintenance is a reality for efficient operations on the shop floor,” said a spokesperson for R&M. “Knowing when important maintenance milestones will occur allows you to schedule service during non-working hours.
“Planning hoist repairs and inspections decreases downtime while increasing performance.”
