Features and Benefits

BENEFITS and FEATURES

CURVED, COMFORT-FIT DESIGN

Well-balanced design fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, requiring minimal wrist flexion for operation to reduce operator fatigue and hand strain.

RIBBED GRIP

Unlike the competitors' smooth grip, the ribbed construction of the CM Rocket's grip provides a secure hold in all environments.

ROCKER SWITCH

Rocker switch requires minimal thumb movement and push force, reducing strain on thumb and hand. It allows the operator to control hoists and other industrial equipment with precision control and accuracy. The wide shape of rocker switch ensures easy operation with or without gloves.

PROTECTIVE GASKET

A rubber gasket seated under the rocker switch prevents environmental contaminants from entering the pendant.

RUGGED DIRECTIONAL INDICATORS

Directional indicators feature raised, non-slip ridges for ease of use and secure thumb placement. Ridges will not wear quickly, like the competitors' labels or printed indicators.

DURABLE CASING

Shock, corrosion and water resistant with a sealed gasket to help protect from environmental contaminants. The CM Rocket pendant is NEMA 4/4X (IP65) approved and temperature rated for -0C (32F).

MEETS HIGH PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

The CM Rocket pendant is NEMA 4/4X (IP65) approved for indoor industrial service only and temperature rated for indoor use at -0C (32F).

CSA AND UL CERTIFIED

EMERGENCY STOP

Large emergency stop button is easy to operate with simple push-down, twist-to-release operation for compliance with OSHA-required safeguarding measures. Emergency stop is optional and available on single-speed and 2-speed pendants.

UNIVERSAL DESIGN

The CM Rocket can be used with a wide variety of Columbus McKinnon hoists.

MAXIMUM CONTROL. MINIMAL EFFORT.

At the heart of the CM Rocket is a unique rocker switch that is ergonomically designed to reduce thumb strain and fatigue. The rocker switch gives the operator ultimate load control for micro-positioning applications, as well as increased safety and efficiency for hoist and machine operators. Its curved, well-balanced shape and ribbed grip help ensure the operator maintains a secure and comfortable hold.

The patented CM Rocket can be used for momentary operation of numerous types of industrial equipment, including hoists, conveyors, lift elevators and lift gates, mill drives, actuators and winches.
