These luffing/high-profile cranes which are comprised of three (3) Kocks (cranes 4-5-6) were delivered in the late 1980's and four (4) ZPMCs (cranes 7-8-9-10) which were delivered in mid and late 1995. Cranes 7-10 were the first ZPMC cranes operational in the USA, the first major order in the western hemisphere. Cranes 4-5-6 have been recently completely electrified and working on 13.2 KV electric power. Cranes 7-10 have all the electrical components installed but the electrical pit on the dock has not been constructed as of yet as such these cranes are running on diesel power. Cranes 4-6 operated ABB DCS 600 drives with AC410 Advant Controller with CMS, while Crane 7-10 operate ABB Tyrak Midi II with AC410 Advant Controller with CMS.
