Topic summary

A user seeks to replace a momentary rocker switch on an electric hoist pendant control with two relays to independently control the motor's up and down rotation. The motor operates at 110V AC with a 7.1A current rating and 3/4 HP power. The user acquired a commercial control box featuring two sets of wired soft-touch keys, a wireless switch, and terminals for motor power, rotation control, limit switches, and emergency stop, but lacks detailed documentation. The discussion emphasizes selecting relays with 110V AC coils and at least 10A contact rating, preferably with double make contacts or contactors, to handle motor control safely. Wiring suggestions include integrating relays on the up and down control lines from the pendant to the new controller, ensuring interlock to prevent simultaneous activation that could cause short circuits or damage. The user provided photos of the control box terminals and wireless receiver, seeking advice on wiring and relay selection to maintain limit switch functionality and motor operation.
