Grip kit for AMI on-off electrical applications
The Grip kit for AMI on-off electrical applications is an essential accessory for hydraulic directional control valves, designed for the precise control of agricultural machinery such as trimming machines. It includes an ergonomic grip equipped with a green indicator light and operating buttons (green P1, red P2). The integrated industrial wiring is complete with 15-pin Maten-Lock connectors, 12 C18 3P+T connectors, a 25 A plug, and an acoustic buzzer, ensuring safe connections. The available product codes are: “AMI grip kit” family.
The operation of the Grip kit for AMI on-off electrical applications is based on an ergonomic interface equipped with multiple direct interaction points. The main grip is equipped with a series of top switches identified by the technical nomenclature sw1, sw2, sw3, sw4, and sw5, which allow the simultaneous management of different electro-hydraulic functions of the directional control valve. Visual monitoring of the system status in real-time is ensured by the presence of a green indicator light strategically positioned on the top of the grip itself.
Actuation control is also entrusted to two main trigger buttons positioned in the ergonomic grip area: a green P1 button and a red P2 button. The entire assembly is supported by a robust bushing located at the base of the grip, which ensures the necessary mechanical stability and physical protection for the wiring exit.
From an electrical and construction point of view, the system is divided into specific high-resistance wiring sections. The primary cable exiting the grip is a multipolar cable with a 16×0.75 specification, having a total length of 700 mm. The external portion of this cable, for a length of 450 mm, is further protected by a 500 mm braided sleeving. This sheath provides high resistance to mechanical abrasion and ensures excellent protection in harsh operating environments.
This primary cable ends with a 15-pin Maten-Lock industrial connector equipped with female faston terminals. This mates securely and mechanically stably with its dedicated counterpart, a 15-pin Maten-Lock connector with male faston terminals, ensuring uninterrupted and protected transmission of control signals.
The control system is powered via a dedicated cable with a 2×1.5 specification, having a length of 2000 mm, and equipped at the end with a 25 A industrial plug. This configuration ensures an adequate and safe electrical current supply for all the system’s on-off operations.
Regarding the signal output to the actuators or solenoid valves of the directional control valve, the kit is equipped with a high-capacity branched wiring. The main output cable features a technical specification of 14×1 + 2×2.5 and extends for a remarkable total length of 5000 mm. This imposing transmission section ends with a series of exactly 12 C18 3P+T connectors, allowing the simultaneous control of multiple hydraulic utilities. A buzzer (acoustic signal) is also integrated into the wiring, designed to provide audio feedback to the operator during specific activation phases, ensuring maximum safety of use in the field.
