Product Overview

What The Hoist Pendant Control Is For

The AR1-63YD is a double speed hoist pendant control station with six function buttons plus an on/off switch and emergency stop, designed for overhead cranes, hoists and winches. It uses mechanical interlock for safety and is built with rugged ABS plastic housing rated IP54. The control operates at 500VAC and handles 10A contact current, making it suitable for direct connection to contactor coils without additional relays. Available in yellow housing with black and green button tips, it supports single or double speed operation and is ready for immediate installation on existing machines.

Comparison

How It Compares With The Alternatives
