New generation of air hoists
J D Neuhaus introduce new generation of monorail air hoists
J D Neuhaus have launched a new generation of purpose-designed monorail air hoists. The new EH25 hoist in this range has a lift capacity of 25 tonnes and can be supplied with either air or hydraulic control of the lift and travel movements, as well as optional remote electrical or radio controls. The product fulfils all the requirements for safe and effective BOP handling, whether for vessel, offshore or land-based operations. With an Ex rating for operation in explosive atmospheres, the hoist is also suited for applications in other hazardous conditions such as those found in the chemical or cement manufacturing industries.
Standard features include optimized air-flow guidance and reduced noise levels with up to 25% less air consumption due to a new energy-saving valve. Adjustable beam width mounting and 3m lift is provided, together with an offshore corrosion protection package. Overload adjustment is 90-125%, with a 5:1 hoist safety factor and 3.1 certification on load-carrying parts. The new design utilises less components, with lube-free operation and a low maintenance level achieved from the new generation of brake motors. The product also complies with standards API 7K, ABS, ANSI B30, NORSOK and DNV approval programs.
Optional features include overload protection and a load-monitoring system. Particularly suited for shipboard applications is a rack and pinion drive for horizontally travel movements, together with an articulated trolley for limited side pulling operations.
