Overload Protection Chain Hoist systems - OP YALE 360
REID Lifting Ltd further enhances its lightweight, portable lifting solutions with an integrated Overload Protection chain hoist family, the OP Yale 360 from Columbus McKinnon, across all their product ranges from 500kg to 5,000kg WLL (PORTA-GANTRY, PORTA -DAVIT, T- DAVIT and PORTA -QUAD).
Overload Protection: Added safety and control
Overload Protection prevents excessive load take-up of the hoist during operation.
When the pre-set overload value is reached, the unit will stop operation in the lifting direction.
Lowering of the load is still possible at any time.
Overload Protection provides additional safety with regard to possible false estimation of the load weight and thus protects the user, lifting equipment and load from the dangers of overload forces and increases the lifetime of the hoist and lifting equipment.
REID strongly recommends the use of such overload protection devices, particularly in wet lift situations where break out forces may be unknown and potentially dangerous.
