Product Details
OZ Lifting Products' spark resistant chain hoists are designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, adhering to strict guidelines and equipment requirements in compliance with the EU's explosion-proof standard 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 suited for use in Zone 1 & 2 (gas) as well as Zone 21 & 22 (dust). Key features include a Type EX-F3 spark resistant design, a unique hand wheel that allows the hand chain to feed directly into the wheel sprocket from multiple angles, and a reduction in lifting effort by 20% - 35% compared to competitors, making them ideal for frequent lifting and pulling applications. The fully enclosed gearing protects against contamination, while heavy-duty stainless steel hooks with safety latches and a durable non-oily finish stainless steel hand chain enhance usability and maintenance. The load chain features a DACROMET® finish for additional spark resistance, and a fully machined lift wheel ensures smooth operation. These hoists can be employed for both lifting and pulling, providing versatility, and the low headroom design maximizes lift while minimizing space used. Additionally, a weatherproof load holding brake is included for both lever and chain hoists, ensuring reliable performance in various conditions.
