With the single rope versions hoisting speeds up to eight respectively 16m/min are possible. The double rope versions reach up to four respectively 8m/min. The standard maximum loads range from 500 to 1,000kg up to 2,000kg. Any loads other than that under 2t are also possible.

This new hoist is especially suitable for applications of handling facilities. The stepless hoisting and lowering spares all wearing parts of the hoist and also makes precise and safe positioning of the load possible.

Therefore, according to Krantechnik, the SKC is especially useful when hoisting fragile or shock susceptible products.

For trolley drive the hoist can be equipped with either a sliding trolley or frequency-controlled electric trolley.

The standard package contains thermal protection for the hoisting motor as well as an upper and lower hoist limit switch. If requested, a gear limit switch can be built in to protect both hoist and load. The hoisting speed can either be controlled in two steps or stepless.

The electric chain hoist SKC from Mannheim is designed according to IP55 protection and suitable for surrounding temperatures from -10°C up to 50°C.
