IEHC approaches a control box as part of the complete control circuit. We review the required motions, contact logic, control voltage, enclosure location and cable arrangement before recommending a configuration.
This specification-led process helps buyers avoid mismatched contacts, missing operator functions and unsuitable enclosures.
Pendant or fixed-button control for lifting, lowering, travel and emergency-stop functions.
Local operator control for hatches, pumps, valves and hydraulic power units.
Start, stop, jog and direction commands at accessible operating points.
The quantity depends on the required commands. List every motion and auxiliary function, including start, stop, direction, speed selection and emergency stop, before choosing the layout.
Configuration options depend on the model. Provide the required button functions, legends, colors and contact logic so IEHC can confirm the available arrangement.
Specify control voltage, current requirements, contact type, wiring diagram or control logic, cable entry and the equipment being controlled.
Only when the selected enclosure and cable entries provide protection suitable for the environment. Describe rain, dust, temperature and washdown exposure before selection.
This depends on the machine risk assessment and applicable safety requirements. Where required, specify the contact arrangement, reset method and integration with the safety circuit.
