Pneumatic (Air) Chain Hoists
Rated lifting capacity: 0.5～16t
Lifting height: 6～12m (support customization)
Working level: M3
Lifting speed: 3.5 (3.5/0.35) m/min, 7 (7/0.7) m/min, 8 (8/0.8) m/min; walking speed 20m/min (Note: brackets for the hoist have a double lifting speed).
A Pneumatic Chain Hoist is a rugged, non-sparking lifting device powered by compressed air, designed for hazardous environments where electricity poses safety risks. Utilizing a durable alloy chain and air motor, these hoists provide reliable load handling (typically 0.25 to 20 tons) in explosive, wet, or high-temperature conditions. Widely used in oil refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations, they combine intrinsic safety with low-maintenance performance.
Why Choose a Pneumatic Chain Hoist?
● Explosion-Proof Operation
No electrical components eliminate spark risks in flammable atmospheres (ATEX/IECEx certified).
Ideal for Zone 1/2 hazardous areas with gases, vapors, or combustible dust.
● All-Environment Reliability
Resists moisture, dust, and extreme temperatures (-20°C to +60°C).
Air-powered motor won’t overheat during continuous duty cycles.
● Precision & Control
Infinitely variable speed via air pressure adjustment for delicate positioning.
Instant stop/start response without power lag.
● Low Maintenance & Durability
Simple air motor design with fewer wear parts vs. electric hoists.
Corrosion-resistant chains and housings for harsh industrial settings.
● Safety & Compliance
Fail-safe spring brake engages automatically if air supply fails.
Works in submerged conditions (special models available).
