    Safety instructions Regulations The following regulations and all recommendations of this manual serve as basis for assembly, installation, certification and maintenance of electric chain hoists, within Germany and within the area of the European community. For countries other than mentioned, local legislation and directives may apply in addition to the regulations as stated in this manual (German/European).
  • Page 6: Advice For The Use Of Electric Chain Hoists

    Advice for the use of electric chain hoists 1.2.1 Design according to DGUV V54 (BGV D8) Electric chain hoists are designed to lift and to lower loads vertically and to travel horizontally with those lifted loads (with trolleys). Any other use is not considered to be proper. Manufacturer does not take responsibility for any improper use and the risk is on the operator’s responsibility.
  • Page 7: Additional Requirements When Designed According To Dguv V17 (Bgv C1)

    1.2.2 Additional requirements when designed according to DGUV V17 (BGV C1) The electric chain hoists in the design ‚SB‘ (with 2 brakes and half load capacity) are subject to requirements of DGUV V17 (BGV C1). The operators have to be well trained in order to make them aware about the special requirements, resulting from stage and studio use of chain hoists according to DGUV V17 (BGV C1).
  • Page 8: Visible Damages

    Visible damages If any damages or breakdowns are detected during the operation or during hoist tests these hoists must not be operated until they have been repaired or a trained specialist has checked and approved them. In case of broken load chain, the owner/operator shall not put the chain hoist into operation until the hoist has been checked, repaired and approved by an authorized specialist.
  • Page 9: Attaching Lights Or Other Equipment To The Electric Chain Hoists

  • Page 34: Horizontal Movement Of Electric Chain Hoists

    Horizontal movement of electric chain hoists If electric chain hoists are suspended on electric trolleys, the equipment has to be set up in a way that collisions between the crane and other parts of the crane environment are prevented. For trolleys equipped with electric limit switches, the actuating bars have to be installed in such a manner by the user, that the travelling movement is stopped securely before the trolley hits the end rail stoppers or buffers.

  • Page 43: Electric Control Of The Brake

    Electric control of the brake Mode of functioning The disk brake is supplied through a rectifier circuit. It operates according to the fail-safe principle. If there is a power failure, the brake acts automatically so that the load is held securely in every position. To shorten the braking time the brake is operated in a DC circuit.
  • Page 44: Operation And Emergency Brake (Double Brake)

    7.7.1 Operation and emergency brake (double brake) The operation and emergency brake operate independently. They are arranged in a row on the motor pinion shaft. The motor-sided brake is the operation brake Y1 and the cap-sided brake is the emergency brake Y2. Both brakes are DC-disk brakes acting according to the closed circuit current principle.
  • Page 45: Safety Sliding Clutch

    Safety sliding clutch The sliding clutch is located between the rotor of the lifting motor and the main pinion shaft and transmits the driving torque. At once it limits the transmissible power depending on the set coupling torque. Hence an overloading of the electric chain hoist and crane components will be prevented. A special advantage of the patented sliding clutch is that it is situated before the operating brake.
