What\'s Load Moment Indicator
Meaning?
Load
Moment Indicator (LMI), also known as Rated Capacity Indicators
(RCI), or a Safe Load Indicator (SLI) or an Automatic Safe
Load Indicator (ASLI) is a device which is installed on mobile or
portal cranes to alert the operator if the lift is exceeding the
safe operating range of the crane. In some cases, the device will
physically lock the machinery in circumstances it determines to be
unsafe. LMI systems are usually composed of a microprocessor
connected to various sensors on the crane itself. The LMI measures
the angle and extension of the boom along with the load weight and
compares this with the manufacturer\'s specifications to determine
if the lift is safe.
A safe load indicator has the capability of detecting the angle,
weight of load lifted, and ground radius of any lifting device. It
controls the lifting equipment to the level that it tries to keep
the crane functioning as per the manufacturer\'s suggested safety
charts.
The crane is fitted with multiple sensors, for each of the measured
parameters, which are then further displayed in the operator\'s
cabin for his benefit.
How Does a Load Moment Indicator Alarm
Working?
Sound
and light alarm function: when the crane boom work amplitude limit
close to work, when lifting load and torque device close to the
permitted load limit, torque system issued a warning of slow
beeping sound. Warning lights flashing slowly torque system.
When jib frame work scope to work limit, when the lifting load and
torque reaches equipment when the permitted load limit moment send
urgent alarm beeping sound. Shortness of loading system alarm
indicating three color warning light flashing.
•The LMI is an operational aid that warns a crane operator of
approaching overload conditions and 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 crane
operating procedures.
•The responsibility for the safe crane operation shall remain with
the crane operator who shall ensure that all warnings and
instructions supplied are fully understood and observed.
•Prior to operating the crane, the operator must carefully and
thoroughly read and understand the information in this manual to
ensure that he knows the operation and limitations of indicator and
crane.
•Proper functioning depends upon proper daily inspection and
observance of the operating instructions set forth in the operators
manual
