The KITO EQ range of electric chain hoists are lightweight and compact lifting solutions with capacities ranging from 125 kg to 1,000 kg. With both single speed and dual speed options available, these chain hoists are part of the full range of KITO products available from from Red Rooster Lifting.
The EQ includes an inverter that provides an industry-first “light load high-speed” function that automatically increases hoist speed to 130% when the load is less than 30% of WLL. As a result, users can expect the production cycle to improve up to 115% of standard. This unique operating characteristic makes the product ideal for assembly line, work station, and repetitive operation applications.
About Electric Chain Hoists
Electric chain hoists are essential in many industrial and commercial settings, providing efficient and safe lifting solutions for heavy loads, some key features and components of the electric chain hoists:
Electric Motor
Electric chain hoists are powered by an electric motor. This motor provides the necessary force to lift and lower the load.
Hoisting Speed
Electric chain hoists offer variable hoisting speeds, allowing operators to adjust the lifting or lowering speed based on the requirements of the task.
Control System
Electric chain hoists come with a control system that allows the operator to manage the lifting and lowering operations. This can include a pendant control with push buttons or a remote control for more flexibility.
Safety Features
Many KITO electric chain hoists are equipped with safety features such as upper and lower limit switches to prevent over-travel, thermal protection to prevent the motor from overheating, and high performance mechanical braking systems with friction clutch for overload protection and to ensure precise control.
Mounting Options
Electric chain hoists can be mounted in various ways, such as on a beam in a fixed position for vertical movement, or on a manual or motorized trolley, for both vertical and horizontal movement.
Durability
These hoists are designed to be durable and able to withstand industrial use.
Ease of Maintenance
KITO Electric chain hoists are generally designed for easy maintenance and feature a 36-month warranty at no extra cost.
