Accolift® SC Electric Chain Hoist
Accolift® SC Electric Chain Hoist
Accolift® SC Electric Chain Hoists are specifically designed to offer reduced headroom and weight reduction for maximum portability and performance on light capacity enclosed track and jib applications. The SC, for ‘stepless control,’ provides infinitely variable hoist lift speed for improved safety and control. The SC Hoist accelerates with the push of a button and stops on command providing maximum control over the load.
Friction Clutch & Limit Switches
The friction clutch is an overload protection device that prevents lifting when overloaded. When the hoist is raised to high hook or low hook, a micro switch is activated and stops the hoist motor. This prevents unnecessary clutch & motor wear.
Motor Brake
Simple fast acting conical pull-rotor style motor brake for years of trouble-free operation.
Push Button Control
Compact design to enable one-handed operation. Stepless control model pendants include stepless buttons (no detent between slow to fast). Mushroom on/off button included. Push button cable has strain relief built in to prevent cable damage. Pendant is rated IP65.
Electric Control Panel
Single speed, single phase hoists are reconnectable for 115/208/230V power supply. Single speed, three phase hoists are reconnectable for 208/230/460V power supply. VFD-controlled hoists are voltage specific and are stepless control allowing precise load control. Single speed contactor hoists use a 115VAC control circuit while VFD hoists with stepless control use a 24VDC control circuit. Standard power supply cord length is 15’. Enclosure is rated IP55.
Heavy-Duty Motor
The 1HP hoist motor is a high torque heavy-duty design and is rated 30-minute duty (single phase motors are rated 20-minute). Class F motor insulation and standard thermal motor protection (built in thermal sensor) is provided.
Load Sheave / Chain Guide
Load sheave features 5 pockets for smoother operation and better distribution of the load. Chain guide assures proper engagement of chain on load sheave.
Load Chain
Standard load chain is galvanized Grade 80 which is case hardened and has a high resistance to wear and corrosion. All hoists are stocked with 20 feet of lift. Longer lifts are available per application. Nickel Plated load chain is available as an option.
Hooks
Load hook is a forged carbon steel hook with a heavy-duty latch. Thrust bearing in load hook allows 360-degree rotation to prevent twisting of load chain. Top hook, for hook suspended units, is non-rotating. Top lug connectors are packaged with all hook mounted hoists for attachment to light rail trolleys. Top hook & lug can be switched out easily with two pins.
Chain Container
Chain container is standard equipment and is molded with thick polypropylene material to securely contain the chain and chain lubricant. Optional containers are available for longer lift applications.
Gear Box / Oil Lubrication
The gearbox utilizes an alloy steel helical and spur gear reduction. Gear lubrication is easily accessible from the top of the hoist. The gearbox includes an oil fill plug, oil level plug and oil drain plug for ease of maintenance.
Push / Pull Trolley
Trolley is adjustable for a range of 2” to 8” flange widths with no additional materials required. Rubber bumpers, dual tread flanged wheels and drop lugs are provided as standard.
Hand Geared Trolley
Trolley is adjustable for a range of 2” to 8” flange widths with no additional materials required. Standard hand chain drop is 18’. Rubber bumpers, dual tread flanged wheels and drop lugs are provided as standard.
Motorized Trolley
Trolley is adjustable for a range of 2” to 8” flange widths with no additional materials required. Rubber bumpers, dual tread flanged wheels and drop lugs are provided as standard. Motor is rated 30-minute duty (single phase motors are rated 20-minute). Class F motor insulation, standard thermal motor protection (built in thermal sensor) and conical pull-rotor style motor brake is provided.
