Helics – Rated capacity limiter for excavators

The Helics MkII system is specifically engineered for excavators which are used as cranes.
It is designed to comply with the latest European EN-13000 standard and Australian AS-1418.
It will prevent any unsafe movement to protect the machine from overloading or instability.
To meet certification requirements we have a unique testing platform, which can simulate and measure every possible load and position, in order to obtain a correct loadchart.

The display shows the actual and permitted load, height and radius, together with the percentage of safe working load. It shows the fitted tool (e.g. crane arm, forks, bucket, etc.) and all information required for safe operation. The system is equipped with a datalogger. The 7” colour touchscreen enables the operator to select different programs, tools, etc.

Customer requests and adaptations of existing systems can be swiftly carried out by our expert engineering team.
