In October 2020, we received an inquiry for a hoist from Angelo Alfano, a customer in Belgium. He asked us to provide a quotation for the 1t European low headroom chain hoist as soon as possible, and attached the product picture for our reference.

According to the information provided by customers, we have sorted out the basic needs of customers as follows:

  • Type: European low headroom electric chain hoist with double chain
  • Lifting capacity: 1 ton
  • Lifting height: 3m
  • Power supply: 220V 50Hz 1Phase

We immediately started the quotation process and sent the quotation and standard plan to the customer. Angelo Alfano feedback that the distance between the hook and the main frame of the hoist is too small, and his working conditions require a distance of 300mm. So, we re-designed the electric chain hoist solution for him.

Angelo Alfano is very pleased with the new design, and communicated with us about other issues.

  1. The standard lifting speed is 4/1 m/min. Can the hoist achieve a lower lifting or falling speed?
    No, 4/1 m/min is the lowest speed.
  2. Is the lifting and falling speed of the hoist slow when it first starts? How to use the pendant to control the hoist run slowly?
    The pendant button is tapped for slow speed, all pressed for fast speed.

All doubts were resolved and Angelo Alfano placed the order.

The final detailed parameters of the electric chain hoist are as follows:

  • Type: European low headroom electric chain hoist with double chain
  • Lifting capacity: 1 ton
  • Lifting height: 3m
  • Power supply: 380V 50Hz 3Phase
  • Lifting speed: 4/1 m/min
  • Travelling speed: 20m/min
  • Working duty: A5
  • Other requirements: The length between hook to hoist body frame is 300mm.
