Electric Chain Hoist 16 Tons

16 Tons Electric Chain Hoist Key Features & Benefits

• 1. 16-Ton (32,000 lbs) Lifting Capacity: Tackle your most challenging lifts with absolute confidence. This hoist is engineered to handle massive loads in factory, workshop, and construction settings efficiently and safely.

• 2. Powerful & Efficient Electric Motor: Operates on robust 3-Phase or standard Single-Phase power (options available). The high-torque, thermally protected motor ensures smooth start-up and consistent performance under full load, reducing strain on your electrical system.

• 3. Enhanced Safety & Protection:

  • Ultra-Sensitive Lower Limit Switch: Automatically stops the hoist to prevent chain overtravel and potential damage.
  • Regenerative Emergency Braking System: Provides immediate, failsafe stopping power in both lifting and lowering directions, ensuring superior load control and safety.
  • Thermal Overload Protection: Safeguards the motor from damage due to overheating from excessive use or voltage fluctuations.

• 4. Superior Durability & Construction:

  • Grade 100 Alloy Steel Load Chain: The highest quality chain offers superior wear resistance, better fatigue life, and a slimmer profile compared to lower-grade chains, providing a greater safety margin.
  • Fully Enclosed Gearbox: Protects gears from contaminants like dust and moisture, ensuring long life and minimal maintenance with oil-bath lubrication for smooth operation.
  • Industrial-Grade Contactor: Provides reliable electrical switching for long-term durability under frequent use.

• 5. Precision Control:

  • 24V or 48V Low-Voltage Pendant Control: Enhances operator safety by reducing the risk of electrical shock. The ergonomic pendant features clearly marked buttons for UP/DOWN and an emergency stop button for instant response.
  • Variable Speed Control (Optional): Allows for precise positioning and gentle placement of delicate or awkward loads.

• 6. Easy Installation & Maintenance: Designed for simple integration with a wide range of trolley systems (motorized or manual). Easy-access points simplify inspection and routine maintenance.
