Factors to Consider When Selecting Electric Chain Hoist

 Electric chain hoists are used to lift heavy loads and the selection of it deserves a thoughtful consideration. 

There are several important factors to be considered while selecting an electric chain hoist.


Determination of the required capacity is an important factor. The rated capacity should be at least as high as the rated capacity in case of manual hand chain hoists. In case of electric chain hoists in addition to the capacity requirement, the mean effective load should also be considered.

Selection of the suspension type is another important factor to be considered. The top hooks or the mounting lug used to support the chain hoists can be rigid or articulating. Choosing the right lift, reach and headroom is another important aspect. These three parameters should be grouped together as they are closely related. The length of the lift is usually the distance the load hook can travel between the fully raised and fully lowered positions. Reach specify the distance between hoist suspension point and the lowest position of the hook saddle. 


Operation purpose of the electric chain hoist is another important factor to be considered. Operation of the hoist represents the power source used to drive the hoisting motion. The power supply of the factory should be given important consideration as electric chain hoists are designed to operate under different phase powers. It is very crucial to verify the factory power supply before deciding on the electric hoist.


Choosing the control type is another important factor. It helps in reducing the risk of serious injuries related to metric shocks. Majority of the electric chain hoists features 120v controls.
