Wire Rope Hoists

Wire Rope Hoists

SEPL Wire rope hoists are designed in modular construction which greatly simplifies repairs & cuts down time. The special features are low head - room, spur / helical gears running on antifriction ball bearings with oil bath lubrication, motors confirming to IS:325, "fail to safe" breaks which automatically operate in case of any power failure, tested wire rope confirming to IS:2266, forged hooks conforming to IS:3815 and push button stations operating at step down voltage of 110v, 42v or 24v.

The hoist gear train is with precision hob cut helical / spur gears having hardness up to 250 to 300 BHN running on bearings housed in sheet metal cover with gasket & lubricated with oil bath lubrication. The rope drum is made from M.S. Seamless pipe having machined cut spiral grooves & mounted on self-aligning bearings. Rope guide will be provided for perfect sitting of rope in drum grooves.

Electromagnetic FAIL to SAFE type brake is provided on hoisting motion which ensures perfect safety even in case of power failure. Limit switches are provided on hoisting & over lowering.

To accommodate specific requirements, SEPL hoists can also be built with micro speed arrangements (10% of normal hoisting speed), flexible trolleys to negotiate small radius; high speeds & high lifts; hoists suitable for steel mill duty; foundries & Chemical Plants.
