Full title and description

ISO 10245-2:2014/Amd 1:2015 — Cranes — Limiting and indicating devices — Part 2: Mobile cranes — Amendment 1. This document is the 2015 amendment to ISO 10245-2:2014 and contains the formal textual changes and clarifications to the Part 2 standard for mobile-crane limiting and indicating devices.

Abstract

ISO 10245-2:2014 specifies requirements for devices that limit and/or indicate loads, motions, performance and environment of mobile cranes (as defined in ISO 4306‑2). The 2015 amendment makes targeted corrections and/or additions to that 2014 edition to ensure the technical requirements remain clear and applicable for mobile crane limiting and indicating devices.

Scope

This part of ISO 10245 applies to all mobile cranes as defined in ISO 4306‑2 and sets requirements for limiting and indicating devices used to measure, indicate or limit load, motions and certain environmental/operational parameters. The amendment updates, clarifies or corrects specific technical provisions of the 2014 text so implementers and conformity assessors have an unambiguous reference for mobile-crane safety-related devices.

Key topics and requirements

• Rated-capacity limiters and indicators (performance, setpoints and required coupling to control functions).
• Load measuring and display requirements (accuracy, indication ranges and behaviour when approaching limits).
• Motion limiters and indicators for hoisting, lowering, derricking, boom extension/retraction, radius limits and slew/level sensing.
• Anti-two-block / two-block prevention features and required responses to unsafe conditions.
• Requirements for alarms, visual/audible indications, and interlocks that prevent unsafe operations.
• Testing, calibration and verification requirements that ensure devices operate within specified tolerances.

These topics reflect the technical content of the Part 2 document and the types of changes captured by the 2015 amendment.

Typical use and users

Primary users are crane designers and manufacturers, safety and control-system engineers, conformity assessment and test laboratories, inspection and certification bodies, and regulatory authorities. The standard is used to specify, design, test and verify limiting and indicating devices on mobile cranes to improve operational safety and assist in demonstrating compliance with national/industry regulations.

Related standards

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 10245-2:2014 is an International Standard that defines requirements for limiting and indicating devices used on mobile cranes; ISO 10245-2:2014/Amd 1:2015 is a 1-page amendment issued in July 2015 that modifies or clarifies parts of the 2014 edition.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers functional and performance requirements for devices that measure or limit loads and motions (rated-capacity limiters, load and motion indicators, anti-two-block systems, alarms, etc.), plus associated verification and calibration considerations for mobile cranes.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Manufacturers and designers of mobile cranes and their control systems, test laboratories, certification bodies, safety engineers and regulators who need to specify, test or verify crane limiting and indicating devices.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The 2014 edition is the current Part 2 edition referenced in ISO records; Amendment 1 (2015) is an official published amendment to that edition. Users should check with ISO or their national standards body for any later revisions or further amendments beyond 2015.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 10245 is a multipart series on limiting and indicating devices for cranes (Part 1: General, Part 2: Mobile cranes, Part 3: Tower cranes, etc.). This Part 2 document works together with Part 1 (general requirements) and other crane standards.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: mobile crane, limiting device, indicating device, rated capacity, load indicator, motion limiter, anti-two-block, crane safety, ISO 10245-2, amendment 2015.
