| Extended load range |
Variable-speed chain hoist up to 2.5 t
Demag Cranes & Components has extended its range of chain hoists with variable speeds in the upper load capacity range. The launch of DCS-Pro 10 extends the range of chain hoists fitted with an integrated frequency inverter up to 2.5 t.
The DCS-Pro 10 chain hoist is based on the DC-Pro series platform, which has become well established in the market since its introduction three years ago. It provides infinitely variable speed control for lifting and lowering motions over the entire load range.
Operators benefit from particularly fine control at low speeds for precise positioning processes. With partial loads and no-load operation, the rated speed of the DCS-Pro 10 is increased by up to 90 %.
The lifting motion automatically switches over to creep lifting speed before the limit positions are reached. Acceleration and braking ramps prevent significant load sway.
When used together with E22 or E34 electric-travel drives, the cross-travel motion can also be automatically controlled at variable speeds. Like the standard models of the lower load-capacity range, the DCS-Pro10 chain hoist is offered with comprehensive standard features:
- Improved safety standards thanks to 24 V control voltage and operating limit switches
- Effective cut-off on overload thanks to speed-monitored slipping clutch
- The brake-coupling system ensures that the load is held securely in any operating situation – the load cannot drop
- Elapsed operating time counter and diagnostics interface provide information on the operating status
- Improved safety function by means of motor temperature monitoring
The gearbox, brake and clutch are maintenance-free for up to ten years. With a 20 percent longer service life due to its 2m+ classification, the DCS-Pro range also offers greater operating efficiency.
