during lifting operations. The outputs on the display (sensor data, calculated values,
utilisation percentage values, etc.) are adapted to the existing crane system and the
configuration of the application.
Optionally, the BROSA 0656 electronic system can be used as a weighing system in
accordance with SOLAS. Handling essentially corresponds to use as an overload
protection, which is why explicit mention of this is omitted in the following.
The BROSA overload protection system is based on the 0656 electronics platform with
the following features:
• 8 (typ.) CANopen nodes (ID 11 - ID 18)
• 2 analogue outputs
• 8 digital inputs
• 8 digital o 1 system error output
• RS232 interface
• RS485 interface
• PROFINET interface (slave)
• PROFIBUS interface (slave)
• CANopen interface (slave)
For additional technical details, see chapter 5
Each system can be adapted to the specific needs of a customer using BROSA's FlexLim
Safe operating system software. As the name implies, FlexLim Safe flexibly allows for the
creation of customised load limiting applications. Depending on the version, the system
achieves SIL 2 (PLd)
The software consists of predefined modules (inputs, outputs, comparators, mathematical
operators, etc.) that can be combined appropriately to achieve the desired functionality.
Each module has a number of specific parameters which can be changed either directly
