Empty Crane Control Boxes

An empty crane control box is a crane control enclosure with no button elements fitted, consisting only of the pendant housing and the button slots. It is used by maintenance teams and crane manufacturers who want to build their own button layout or renew the worn housing of an existing control. The category includes housings in different numbers of positions such as 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 9 in the EMAS PV and PVK series, along with types with the first hole closed or blanked. Select the housing by number of positions, PV or PVK series, and whether you need the first-hole-closed or blanked type; verify from the manufacturer data that the button elements you will fit are compatible with the series. An empty crane control box is not a working control on its own; direction buttons, the emergency stop and contact blocks are supplied separately.
