The SLA Pneumatic Low Headroom Chain Hoist includes vane or piston motors and brakes with modulating valves for infinitely variable hoist motion. Design allows this hoist to operate in extreme low overhead locations where most other "low headroom" hoists can't.

Features and Benefits

Compact Design

Integral hoist/trolley design provides compact overall envelope dimensions.

Steel Construction

Steel construction to withstand harsh environments.

Variable Speed

Pilot air control permits variable speed hoisting and trolley traverse.

Redundant limit switches

Redundant limit switches for upper and lower hook travel.

Trolley Options

Plain, hand geared, or motor driven trolley models featuring anti-tilt rollers.

Can be made to fit virtually any beam

Easy installation

Unique design allows easy installation on closed end monorail beam.
