Method and Apparatus for Providing Diagnostics of a Lifting Magnet System
First Claim
1. An apparatus for providing diagnostics of a work device, comprising:
- an electric crane including an operator cabin and a derrick that supports a lifting magnet;
a diagnostic panel disposed proximate the operator cabin;
a device that provides one or more operating parameters associated with an operation of the electric crane; and
a logic controller in communication with the device and diagnostic panel, wherein the logic controller receives the one or more operating parameter , wherein the diagnostic panel provides one or more quantifiable diagnostics of the electric crane and/or magnet according to the one or more operating parameters received by the PLC.
