Height monitor: Heightwatch 6

Construction plant is deployed in a variety of hazardous environments including working in height restricted areas. Prolec's height monitor, Heightwatch 6, is a stand-alone height monitoring system designed to limit the maximum angle, and therefore the height, of a single fixed length boom. The operation of the system is extremely simple; the operator raises the machines equipment to the maximum safe working height, and when this height is reached the key is moved to the "SET" position. If the maximum safe working height is exceeded visual and audible alarms are activated.

The Heightwatch 6 height monitor also has the facility to operate with a single motion cut valve to ensure the equipment cannot exceed the maximum safe working height by cutting the hydraulic motion of the machine. The height monitor enhances safety by the inclusion of a key switch, which can be held by a site foreman or other responsible person, and once the maximum safe working height has been set, the system cannot be overridden without this.

The Heightwatch 6 Height Monitor can be used on:

• Excavators
• Wheeled Loaders
• Telehandlers
• Lorry Loader Cranes
