What Is Low Headroom Electric Hoist & Types of Low Headroom Hoists


What is a low headroom electric hoist?

Heavy engineered hoisting equipment are made with precision, and the ultralow headroom electric hoist from EOTCRANEKIT is a true example of that. This electric hoist is ideal for situations with limited headroom because it operates smoothly, safely, and without the need for maintenance. These features are critical for heavy electric hoists, as an employer invests a significant amount of money and desires in obtaining a low headroom electric hoist.

When clients have trouble using a standard electric hoist due to a lack of headroom above, an ultralow headroom electric hoist is used. The low headroom low headroom electric hoist is the result of extensive engineering and exclusive design, making it ideal for a wide range of applications. You'll learn a lot about the need for, how to use, and how effective an ultra-tailored low headroom electric hoist is in this post.

Low headroom electric hoist with different configurations

During the planning stage of a new building construction project -When a new building is being built, the usage of a low headroom electric hoist allows the structure's height to be reduced because they require less space than standard electrichoists. This reduces the building's or structure's required height and helps save money on heating, materials, and air conditioning. In these situations, an ultra low headroom electric hoist is an excellent choice because of its configuration, which requires very little space.

When lifting height becomes a problem in an existing building or facility , where everycentimetre counts, an ultralow headroom electric hoist is the ideal option. The liftingweight can be lifted close to the support beam with this series. These low headroom electric hoists are made with cutting-edge technology and can simply complete the work. This also allows the current frame to be used without having to lift the rail up or down the floor level. It has a wide range of applications, including below deck in ships and on oil platforms, and other places, etc.

Features of low headroom electric hoist

  • It runs quietly and smoothly, and it's easy to maintain.
  • It comes with a chain container made of plastic or canvas.
  • Safety. O over-lifting and lowering is prevented byusing an upper-lower limit switch.
  • Control Safety is increased with an Wn emergency stop button, andthe voltage is reduced to 24 V for increased safety.
  • The electric trolley now has a 5.4-buttons unit on the hoist.
  • The push-pull option To suit a range of applications, trolleys may be mounted, geared trolleys can be mounted, electric trolleys can be mounted, and hooks can be mounted.
  • The width of the trolley wheel flange is manufactured to the customer's specifications for the specific beam ordered. H-Beams, Universal Beams, Fabricated Box girders, and I-beams are among the beams that the hoist with trolleys can fit.
  • Special input voltages such as 500 volts, 440 volts, 400 volts, and 380 volts are available as options.
  • On request, custom lengths of load chain, power cord, and pendant cord are available.
  • Lifting Speeds Lifting Speeds: Single or Dual
  • Wireless Radio Remote control is optional.
  • With a Dual Winding motor or a VFD inverter, variable speed control is built in as your requirement.

Maximum Overhead Clearance Attributes-

  • Specifications and characteristics of electric hoists are among the criteria of maximum overhead clearance. -
  • The beam-to-hook distance is reduced by the design of a low headroom electric hoist.
  • By creating additional workspace, taller equipment/machines can be put or housed under assembly bays.
  • When there is a height constraint on an existing building or structure, this can help to reduce bridge crane profiles.
  • By lowering the heights of the jib crane, clearance can be improved under bridge cranes and mezzanines.
  • The cost of constructing a new ceiling to create additional workplace can be avoided.
  • Position loads consistently and correctly for years.
  • A low headroom electric hoist avoids unnecessary contact between the load and the production electric hoistry installed beneath it, preventing damage to both the weight and the electric hoist.
  • The benefit of 'True Vertical Lift' is leveraged because it is a low headroom electric hoist.
  • To improve stopping accuracy and holding force, standard motor brakes are used.
  • Both the upper and lower hook stops can be adjusted with the adjustable rotary limit switch.
  • The motors are Heavy Duty.
  • To improve the workflow, a low-headroom arrangement is used.
  • A true-vertical lift is also included at no additional cost.
  • Oil bath lubrication is carried in the enclosed in-line gear train hat for smoother and easier operation.
  • The use of a mechanical load brake improves safety.
  • For the precision of the chain stops, an electric motor brake is used.
  • Upper and lower emergency limit switches to check chain motion
  • In the event of a phase reversal, reversing the controls and pendant will prevent the hoist from functioning.
  • Trolleys are divided into three categories: manual push-pull, electric trolleys, and manual geared trolleys.
  • For specialized or custom applications, dual speed operation is available.
  • Trolley controls with a soft start for better functioning
