1. GENERAL INFORMATION
HC4900 Load Moment Indicator (LMI) provides effective information to
operators, which will assist an operator maintain a machine to work within its
design parameters. LMI provides the operator with the information of the length
and angle of the boom, tip height, working radius, rated load and the actual
load weight and so on.
Using various sensing devices, the load moment indicator monitors machine’s
various operational functions and provides the operator with a continuous
reading of the machine’s capacity. The readings change continuously in
response to the different operations of the machine.
If forbidden conditions are approached, the HC4900 Load Moment Indicator will
warn the operator by sounding an audible alarm, lighting a warning light and
locking out those functions that may aggravate the machine’s condition.
This user manual is used for Zoomlion RT crane with a 4-section boom.

2. WARNING
The LMI control system is used to assist in the safe operation of the crane by
warning crane operator of approaching overload conditions and of over-hoist
conditions that could cause damage to equipment and personnel.
The device is not, and shall not, be a substitute for good operator judgment,
experience and use of accepted safe machine operating procedures.
Safe operation is the responsibility for every machine operator. Every
machine operator must ensure that they read all warnings and
instructions carefully and fully understand the contents. Correct operation
depends on daily careful checking and serious study of the Manual.
The LMI is not able to provide aid to the machine operator unless it has
been properly adjusted and unless the correct load capacity chart and
the correct operating code have been entered for the respective rigging
configuration. The correctness of the LMI setups must be ensured before
beginning machine work in order to avoid damage to property and severe
or even fatal injuries to personnel
If the LMI fails or is not functioning properly, stop the operation of the
crane immediately and contact an expert service engineer. Hirschmann
Electronics Co., Ltd. does not assume any responsibility for undesirable
consequences resulting from continued use of the crane if the LMI is not
functioning!
Hirschmann Electronics Co.,Ltd. shall not be liable for damages caused
by welding crane without power off the controller.
Hirschmann Electronics Co.,Ltd. shall not be liable for damages caused
by power on the controller at a thunderstorm weather.

3. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
HC4900 LMI System configuration
HC4900 LMI system comprises a HC 4900 central unit with an IC 4600 console
together with various sensors to record the measured values.
The system operates on the principle of reference/real comparison. The actual
value is compared with the calculated reference values and evaluated by the
system. An overload warning signal is triggered on the display and operating
console once limit values are reached. All machine movements that increase
the load moment are switched off at the same time.
The crane-specific data specified by the manufacturer, such as load capacity
charts, boom weights, centers of gravity and dimensions, are stored in the
central data memory. This data is the reference information used to calculate
the operating conditions. The boom angle and length is measured by means of
length and angle sensors that are mounted on the boom. The crane load is
determined indirectly with the aid of pressure transducers.

3.3 DAVS Pressure transducer
DAVS pressure transducers measure high static and dynamic pressure
values of liquids or gases in rough operating environment. Measurement
precision is maintained even during continuous operation at extremely dynamic
pressure. The oil pressure transducer comes with a pressure connector with
standardized G1/4 thread or other hydraulic connectors.
3.3.1 Technical data
Operating voltage: 8～32VDC
Signal: CANopen
Operating temperature:-40°C～+85°C
Storing temperature: -40°C～+100°C
Protection class: IP67
Life expectancy: ＞10 million cycles
Hysteresis tolerance:〈±0.1%FS max.
DAVS Dimension
3.3.2 Installation
Please notice the location of hydraulic piping and valve when installing the
pressure transducer. By thread connection (such as follow graph), screw the
pressure transducer in the hydraulic piping or seat of the balancing valves or
hydraulic valves. Add the appropriate seal to the display to prevent oil leakage.
Guarantee the installation position is safe and easy for cable connecting. Make
sure the pressure sensor and hydraulic adaptor connect tightly. The tightening
moment of G1/4 connector is 20Nm

3.4 LWG208 Length/Angle sensor
LWG series Length/Angle sensor can be directly installed and can precisely
measure the angle and the length of boom with largest measurement length of
fifty meters. The sealed housing protects the inside components from water
inclusion, humidity etc.
3.4.1 Technical data
Operating voltage: 15～30VDC
Operating temperature: -25°C～
+75°C
Storing temperature: -40°C～
+80°C
Protection class: IP65
Linearity tolerance: 〈±0.2°
Resolution: 〈±0.1°
Hysteresis tolerance: 〈±0.1°
LWG208 Length/angle sensor dimension
3.4.2 Installation
Length/Angle sensor is installed on the main boom. Manufacturers can fix the
bracket of the sensor to the crane boom by welding tap blocks and bolting it in
place. When installing the sensor, the position shall be well considered, generally
along the foot points of boom to the top direction. The sensor (left type) is typically
installed on the left of the boom (aligned with the cab) to leave room for the fly (jib)
on the right side of the boom. The sensor can be located on the right side as
required. The cover can be turned 180° to put the PAT name facing upward.
