Spark Resistant Chain Hoist

In industries where explosive atmospheres are a concern, safety and reliability are paramount. Our Spark Resistant Chain Hoist is engineered to meet the highest safety standards, including EU’s ATEX94/9/EC and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, ensuring explosion-proof performance in hazardous environments. Certified to EX II2 GD c IIIC T135°C, this hoist is designed for use in Zones 1 & 2 (gas) and Zones 21 & 22 (dust), making it ideal for military, aerospace, oil, gas, petrochemical, and chemical industries where stringent safety protocols are essential.

This hoist features a Type EX-F3 spark-resistant design and incorporates a unique hand wheel that allows for smooth chain feeding from various angles, reducing the risk of jamming and enhancing operational flexibility. With minimal lifting effort required—20% to 35% less than competing models—it ensures efficient handling of heavy loads, making it suitable for frequent lifting and pulling tasks. The fully enclosed gearing protects against contamination, while copper-plated hooks, stainless steel safety latches, and a Dacromet® finish load chain enhance durability and spark resistance.

Engineered for versatility and ease of use, the Spark Resistant Chain Hoist boasts a low headroom design, a weather-proof load holding brake with a twin pawl system, and all gears and shafts running on roller bearings for smooth, maintenance-free operation. Copper riveted ID tags ensure clear identification, and the hoist can be quickly disassembled for fast maintenance. With compliance to CE, ATEX, AS1418.2, and ASME B30.16 standards, this hoist offers unparalleled safety and performance for challenging environments.
