Manual hoists are smooth and safe
The VHR range of economical, compact manual hoists are equipped with load limiters for enhanced safety and a machined load sheave and reduction gears ensuring optimised, smoother operation.
As standard feature, they include an overload warning signal (cutting in at 110% of the maximum load), calibration, resetting and several other functions such as recording of the values measured.
Display of the load can be either by LED or LCD (depending on the model or the options), with high visibility thanks to large digit sizes up to 45.72mm.
The weight indicators are delivered with two shackles, top and bottom attachments and a rechargeable battery complete with charger kit.
They offer IP55 protection and operate at temperature of -20 to +60C.
A stainless steel version is also offered for food industry applications.
