Key Features of the Delta DTS Electric Hoist

The Delta DTS electric chain hoist is larger than the compact DEH hoist but has bigger lifting capabilities. The top capacity supplied by Lifting Gear Direct is currently 5000kg or 5 tonne. The main housing is made from aluminium and easy to disassemble for maintenance tasks.

The dual speeds of the Delta DTS electric hoist make it suitable for vast array of industrial lifting operations where reliability is key. The control system uses Siemens relay contactors. Each contactor can be removed individually to be swapped out for a new one should the need arise.

The transmission system is permanently lubricated so operation is consistently smooth and quieter. The DTS incorporates a slipping clutch which provides protection from overloading, this can be accessed externally for easy adjustment when needed. The brake system will hold the load firm, even in the unfortunate event of a power outage, this is thanks to the spring pressure brake which is electro-magnetic.

Limit switches are provided for both upper and lower areas, these are electro-mechanical and offer great protection from unwanted excess movement in both directions, up and down. In addition there is a quality chain buffer above the load hook for even more protection.

The motor on the DTS hoist incorporates a heat sensor which will help to prevent motor burn out should the temperature get too high.

Delta DTS Hoist Plug and Play

Easy plug & play connections ensure the Delta DTS electric chain hoist is easy to set up and use, whilst also enabling certain components to be easily switched out. For example the hook suspension could be swapped for a trolley or perhaps the pendant could be swapped for a radio remote control system. Pendants come with an emergency stop button so that if a lifting operation becomes dangerous the power can be swiftly cut to prevent accidents.

Chain collectors come as standard to safely hold the 6 metres of RUD chain provided, longer lengths can be supplied on request.

Delta hoists comply with all the necessary standards including the machinery directive 2006/42/EC and are supplied with CE declaration of conformity, test certificate and operating instructions.

Other Delta Hoists

Should you require the Delta DTS discussed above with a trolley instead of the hook suspension then Lifting Gear Direct can offer a choice of push travel or power drive trolleys. The other option to consider is the Delta DEH electric hoist, this is the latest, premium hoist which is more compact and many upgraded components. With safe working loads up to 2000kg available and a choice of suspension hook or complete with a push or powered trolley you are sure to find a Delta lifting hoist to suit your requirements.
