Features and Benefits
Control Options
2-SPEED CONTROL
2-speed models come standard with 6:1 turndown, and the control panel is mounted to the gearbox.
STANDARD VFD
Standard VFD hoist and flux vector hoist configurations come standard with controls housed in a separate NEMA-rated enclosure mounted to underhung hoists. The enclosure is shipped loose for the greatest flexibility in top-running double girder and base-mount configurations. Standard VFD hoists are also equipped with an encoder mounted to the gearbox for direction and overspeed detection, improving the safe operation of your wire rope hoist.
ADVANCED VFD
Advanced VFD configurations offer the greatest positional accuracy. Using variable speed control, micro-positioning capabilities enable precision load control while decreasing load bounce and swing. In addition, the 10:1 speed control gives operators the ability to “float” the load with full torque at 0 rpm.
