DCS-Pro chain hoist

Variable lifting speeds for load capacities up to 3,200 kg

An investment with added value

Our DCS-Pro chain hoist offers high efficiency and reliability to ensure maximum precision in assembly operations – for gently and safely lifting, lowering and positioning valuable and sensitive parts. Thanks to almost double rated speed in the partial load range, lifting motions can be performed very quickly. What other benefits does it offer?

Variable speed over the entire load spectrum
Exceptionally fine control at slow speed
Up to 90% higher speeds for reduced loads thanks to its Pro-Hub function
Load capacities up to 3,200 kg

²⁾ Longer hook paths on request

^*) 2m+ corresponds to 1,900 hours at full load

Customer benefits at glance

Safety

Low-voltage control pendant thanks to 24 V contactor control system
Safety-related functions satisfy at least Performance Level c and Category 2 to EN ISO 13849-1

Minimum load sway

Smooth cross-travel starting and braking motions for low-sway load handling
Speeds and acceleration/braking rates can be modified by means of the control pendant, if required

Long service life
