OZ Lifting Spark Resistant Manual Chain Hoist

Does your job involve lifting and lowering in potentially explosive atmospheres? If so, then OZ Lifting’s Spark Resistant Hand Chain Hoist is the answer to safe operation, every time. Meeting all the necessary guidelines, these manual chain hoists are manufactured in compliance with the EU’s explosion-proof standard ATEX94/9/EC and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. The explosion-proof level can reach: EX II2 GD c IIIC T135°C. They are suitable for potentially explosive atmospheres including Zone 1 & 2 (gas) as well as Zone 21 & 22 (dust). Requiring 20-35% less effort than comparable hoists, these hoists feature a unique hand wheel design that enables users to successfully feed the hand chain directly into the wheel sprocket for multiple angles/directions, reducing the risk of jamming. Featuring a fully enclosed gear design to prevent contamination from debris, the load chain has a Dacromet® finish that is spark resistant. Furthermore, the hand chain and safety latches are manufactured from stainless steel, while the hooks, hand wheel, and roller guides are copper-plated. Smooth operation is ensured courtesy of the high-quality gears and shafts run on roller bearings, which also offer maintenance free lubrication. Each low-headroom hoist is equipped with a protected Weston Brake which holds for the entire operation, as well as a unique twin pawl design.
