The Vario electric chain hoist with hook suspension where horizontal movement is not required.
The Eurochain VR Vario electric chain hoist offers enhanced productivity through continuous speed control which features soft start, rapid acceleration and soft stop, to optimise load-handling operations. The extended speed range (ESR) system allows the hoist to run at faster speeds with lighter or no loads to increase productivity.
Electric braking reduces brake wear since the mechanical brake is used only as holding brake (parking brake).
The Eurochain VR Vario electric chain hoist is designed to provide users with the maximum level of safety. It is delivered with the following equipment as standard:

Both wire rope hoists wire rope hoists and chain hoists are robust lifting appliances that are widely used across numerous industry sectors in a variety of lifting applications. Wire rope hoists have higher lifting capacities and our range of Eurobloc VT electric wire rope hoists are able to lift up to 250 tonnes, compared with 10 tonnes from our electric chain hoists and 50 tonnes from our manual chain hoists. The greater lifting capacity is one of the factors that makes wire rope hoists a more expensive option compared with a chain hoist, but there are other things to consider when trying to decide whether a wire rope hoist or a chain hoist would be better suited to your operation.
Hoists, whether they are electric chain hoists, manual chain hoists, electric wire rope hoists or electric belt hoists are all manufactured with 10 years of serviceable life before a major overhaul or replacement is required. The ten year service life may not necessarily be a physical ten years of operation, but may be used up more quickly or slowly based on how the machine is being operated during its working life.
In order to help evaluate the working life of a hoist you need to be able to calculate how much of the original manufacturers Safe Working Period exists after your lifting operations have occurred.
