Product Details
Oz Lifting Products' spark resistant chain hoists are specifically designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and are manufactured in compliance with the EU's explosion-proof standards ATEX 94/9/EC and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. The hoists achieve an explosion-proof level of Ex II 2 GD C IIIC T135°C and are suitable for use in Zone 1 & 2 (gas) as well as Zone 21 & 22 (dust). Key features include a Type Ex-F3 spark resistant classification, a unique hand wheel design that allows the hand chain to feed into the wheel sprocket from various angles, requiring only 20% - 35% less effort for lifting compared to competitors. The hoists feature fully enclosed gearing to protect against contamination, stainless steel hooks with safety latches that have a bolt and lock nut connection for easy field maintenance, a durable stainless steel hand chain, and a DACROMET® finish load chain providing a non-oily spark resistant surface. Additionally, the fully machined lift wheel ensures smooth operation, and the hoists can be used for both lifting and pulling, enhancing their versatility. A weatherproof load holding brake is included in both lever and chain hoists, and the design allows for low headroom, maximizing lift capability in restricted spaces.
