Ingersoll Rand has launched the Elk Series electric chain hoist, designed to be lightweight and accessible enough to be serviced while still mounted at the facility, cutting downtime.
The three key features that make this possible are an external motor that is easy to reach and remove; a self-contained, permanently-lubricated gearbox that eliminates complexity; and a durable design that lasts in both indoor and outdoor applications.
“With the introduction of the ELK Series Electric Chain Hoist, we are bringing an electric hoist to market that meets the reputation for durability and reliability of our MLK, CLK and HLK hoists,” said Austin Lieb, vice president of product management and marketing at Ingersoll Rand Power Tools.
“Customers can now choose an electric hoist that is modern, compact and significantly lighter than what is currently on the market, making it easier for them to use and maintain their equipment.”
The Elk series is initially available in capacities from 125kg–1t, with capacities up to 5t coming later in the year. The hoists are suitable for a range of end-use sectors including foundries, general industry and manufacturing, oil and gas, heavy equipment manufacturing and wind generation.
The hoists are also durable and reliable, added Ingersoll Rand, and can handle a high volume of loads in accordance with the H4 standard. The aluminium die cast housing can withstand harsh manufacturing environments, and it resistant to dust, water jets, and has built-in drain housing.
