Demag DC Wind Electric Chain Hoist

The DC-Wind can have hook travel paths up to 180 metres, enabling access right to the top of most wind turbines. The chain is collected in its own chain collector bag to keep it safely out of the way, or alternatively the chain can be passed through a tube and down into a separate container/collector enabling excess chain to be stored in a different area.

The Demag DC Wind hoist incorporates rapid lifting speeds to enable swift transportation of tools and replacement parts over the long travel paths needed in a wind turbine. By the cut off of the top and bottom hook positions, safe operation is ensured, there are also a locking mechanism to prevent unwanted travel which may be caused by the turbine moving.

The Demag DC-Wind electric hoist is well used and respected in the wind turbine field so you can be assured of a robust and trustworthy hoist with its corrosion resistant brake having IP55 protection. The DC-Wind also has a 24V contactor control for safe operation.
