Monitoring and Control Systems
All Fagioli Ltd power packs have direct, panel mounted, monitoring and control systems.
It would be typical that a Fagioli Ltd operator might control a multi-jack lift or lower by means of two functional control levers on the power pack with the option of opening or closing hydraulic flow to all or any jacks by means of line valves.
Maximum pumping pressure, hence jack lifting force, can be pre-set or altered at will by pressure control valves on the panel.
Further electronic monitoring can display number of lift strokes completed and individual stroke positions at each jack.
Similar control and monitoring facilities can also be positioned remote from the power pack to fully computerised systems, including automatic lifting and lowering capabilities.
The Advantages of Fagioli Ltd Strand Jacks and Control Systems:
- Comprehensive, completely automatic, remote control and monitoring where required;
- Mechanically fail-safe gripping mechanisms;
- Pre-set overload protection;
- Automatic synchronisation of lifting speeds irrespective of loads;
- Ample operating speeds;
- Load is held mechanically not hydraulically at any time movement is stopped;
- Movement can be stopped and held at any point in jack stroke;
- Extremely precise adjustment of the lift for setting of weld gaps or the fitting of steelwork connecting bolts;
- Automatic lifting and lowering without any personnel in attendance at the jacks;
- Easy re-distribution of the jack loads;
- Minimal re-lubrication of gripping mechanisms - lifts of 100 metres
and horizontal moves of 350 metres have been completed without the need
for re-lubrication;
- Gripping mechanisms are fully accessible at all times;
- Full efficiency in all attributes from vertical through to horizontal;
- Completely self contained and very rugged.
