Electric Chain Hoists
The Electric Chain Hoists category covers lifting hoists powered by an electric motor to raise a load via a load chain, used in industrial facilities and assembly sites requiring powered or repeated lifting per the equipment's documented rated capacity and duty requirements. Models vary in rated capacity, lifting speed, control system and duty classification. This category differs from manual chain hoists in power source and operating system. Specifications vary across models.

About this category
Electric chain hoists are lifting products equipped with an electric motor that drives an internal gear train, which moves the load chain to lift the hook and the attached load. Models differ in documented rated capacity and documented lifting speed, and a direct link between motor power and rated capacity should not be assumed across the category. Control systems vary between models and include push-button pendants and wireless controls depending on design; a single control system should not be assumed across the category. Suspension configurations differ between fixed-hook suspension and a trolley running on a beam, determined by the installation application. Models vary in braking systems, overload-protection features, limit switches and thermal protection; these features should not be assumed across the category and are documented per model in the manufacturer's specifications. Documented duty/service classifications differ by model according to the manufacturer's applicable classification system and the target application, and may depend on multiple factors per the applicable specification. Models differ in supply voltage and frequency. Manual chain hoists, lever hoists and wire rope hoists are excluded from this category. Industrial buyers select electric chain hoist models based on rated capacity, lifting speed, control system, installation and duty requirements and available supply voltage.
