Sentinel has been developed to
work with BGV C 1 chain hoists from CM Lodestar and
Liftket to build a system complying with the latest
European standards. Multiple Sentinel controllers
may be linked together for larger installations.
Sentinel can be operated by local front panel
controls, via a remote ‘GO’ button or by a handheld
pendant with touchscreen interface and full motor
status feedback.
sentinel is available in three variants: the
entry-level sentinel 8-M offers basic manual
controls; sentinel 8-L adds real-time load sensing
and display; and sentinel 8-P offers position
control capabilities compatible with Kinesys’ K2 and
vector software.
