Air Hoist | Standard

Standard Air Powered Wire Rope Hoists

Variable Speed Air Hoist Positions Loads Accurately Without Electronics

Lift loads safely in hazardous environments

Minimize sparking, static and electrical hazards with this air-powered hoist

• Eliminate electric motor dangers by using air motors for both hoist and trolley
• Lift with confidence in dusty and volatile environments by using spark resistant components:
  — Stainless Steel wire rope
  — Bronze bottom block and hook
  — Copper-Beryllium or Micarta trolley wheels
  — Rubber bumpers
  
• Operate hoist in remote locations without electrical service

Increase clearance under hoist without increasing crane height with an air hoist

Air hoist requires just 16" of beam-to-hook clearance (headroom)

• Raise molds and tooling further from production machinery during changeovers
• Maximize overhead clearance as products are positioned in paint and spray booths
• Extend clearance under baskets when lifting over dip tanks side walls
• Minimize motor and pump service crane heights
