Proximity switch for Demag AC 615

The proximity switch 28899440 serves as a sensor for the Demag AC 615 crane, specifically tasked with monitoring the lower boom sections. By detecting the presence or absence of boom components without physical contact, this sensor provides the necessary data for the crane's control system to track the boom's extension and configuration. This information is used to calculate the current reach and load capacity during lifting operations.

This component is compatible with the Demag AC 615 model and utilizes a bolt-on mounting method to ensure stable positioning on the boom structure. The sensor is engineered to interface with the existing electronic systems of the crane to maintain accurate feedback on boom movement and positioning.

Proximity switches are used in heavy machinery to provide non-contact detection of mechanical components. In crane applications, these sensors are integrated into the boom management system to verify the position of telescoping sections. By providing real-time data to the load moment indicator, they assist the operator in maintaining safe load parameters and preventing structural overextension during operation.
