Product Details
Oz Lifting Products' spark-resistant chain hoists are designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and comply with the EU's explosion-proof standard ATEX 94/9/EC and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, achieving an explosion-proof level of Ex II 2 GD C IIIC T135°C. These hoists are suitable for Zone 1 & 2 (gas) and Zone 21 & 22 (dust) environments. Key features include a Type EX-F3 spark-resistant design and a unique hand wheel that allows the hand chain to feed into the wheel sprocket from various angles, enabling safe operation from the side or above the load. Additionally, they require 20% - 35% less lifting effort compared to competitors and feature fully enclosed gearing to protect from contamination. The hoists come equipped with heavy-duty stainless steel hooks with safety latches that use a bolt and lock nut connection for easy field adjustments, a durable non-oily stainless steel hand chain, and a DACROMET® finish load chain that provides a spark-resistant surface. The fully machined lift wheel ensures smooth operation, and the hoists can be used for both lifting and pulling applications, making them versatile tools. Their low headroom design maximizes lift capability while minimizing space usage, and they feature a weatherproof load holding brake with a protected Weston brake mechanism.
