Product Details
Oz Lifting Products' spark resistant chain hoists are specifically designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, complying with the EU's explosion-proof standard ATEX94/9/EC and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. The explosion-proof classification can reach Ex II2 GD C IIIC T135°C, making these hoists suitable for applications in Zone 1 & 2 (gas) and Zone 21 & 22 (dust). The EX-F3 type hoist features a unique hand wheel design that allows the hand chain to feed into the wheel sprocket from multiple directions, enabling operators to use the hoist safely from various positions. These hoists require 20% - 35% less lifting effort compared to competitors, making them ideal for frequent lifting and pulling applications. Key attributes include fully enclosed gearing to protect against contamination, heavy-duty stainless steel hooks with safety latches that use a bolt and lock nut connection, a durable stainless steel hand chain, and a DACROMET® finished load chain for spark resistance. The fully machined lift wheel ensures smooth operation, while the low headroom design maximizes lift in restricted spaces. Additionally, both lever and chain hoists are equipped with a weatherproof load holding brake for enhanced safety.
