Simple and easy to use – reliable and safe in operation – long-lasting and easy to maintain. GIS electric chain hoists have been developed and manufactured in Switzerland for more than 60 years. Hundreds of thousands of them are in operation worldwide – stationary or mobile. Electric chain hoist GP - the endurance hoist

Customer specific Low dead weight from 14 kg Three- or single-phase power Compact housing with low headroom Worldwide operation and control voltages Designed for a service life of 1600 h (DIN EN 14492 A5, ISO M5) Direct control, special control, radio remote control, frequency inverter Manganese phosphated profile steel chain with increased service life and improved dry-running properties Geared limit switches with high accuracy in positioning of the highest and lowest hook position Self-contained gearbox with permanent lubrication High safety in operation Low-wear DC-spring-loaded brake Ergonomic...

Profile steel chain The case hardened and manganese phosphated profile steel chain provides about 15 % more capacity at an identical nominal diameter when compared to the traditional round steel chain. The larger cross-sectional area reduces wear and increases the lifetime of the chain. The load hook with stable, guided hook latch and safety rubber buffer provides maximum safety. The control switch fits comfortably in your hand and is ergonomically designed. It is robust, impact resistant, safe to operate and controlled by 42 V low voltage. Push buttons placed in parallel increase the ease of...

USE GIS electric chain hoists are used everywhere, where process safety of crane systems is important: in the hard three-shift operations in the automotives and other high production industries, in dusty or chemical aggressive environments, for outdoor use, for the entertainment industry or for extreme lifting heights in wind power plants. GIS electric chain hoists and trolleys are made to high standards and designed for a service life of 1600 hours (DIN EN 14492 A5, ISO M5). VICTORINOX AG Edwin Schuler, Ibach, Switzerland Head of Maintenance GIS electric chain hoists and crane systems have been...

Safety radio remote control Frequency inverter Operating data counter The 295 gram lightweight, very rugged handheld transmitter is powered by a rechargeable lithium ion battery and has a protection class of IP66. The receiver which is integrated in a stable housing has a protection class of IP65. With its certified STOP function the receiver meets the requirements of SIL 3 Performance Level PL e. Electric chain hoist, motorised trolley or the complete crane system can be operated using frequency inverters. The soft start ensures the accurate and gentle start and positioning of goods and minimises...

SERVICE & MAINTENANCE The efficiency of an electric chain hoist should be considered throughout the whole product life cycle. The GP has low wear and is designed to last. Repair and maintenance is done simply and quickly which makes the chain hoist very economical to maintain. Its high reliability minimises the risk of production downtime and potentially high downtime costs. For our GP electric chain hoists we provide a 3 year warranty. YOUR BENEFITS The GP series has an overall modular structure. Wearing parts are replaced in a simple manner. The electric chain hoist can be quickly disassembled...

Slipping clutch The slipping clutch serves as an overload protection and protects the motor and the crane system against overloading. It is located in front of the brake, outside the flow of forces and runs dry with very low maintenance. The slipping clutch is easily accessible and adjustable. Chain and chain guidance are wearing parts, which must be regularly checked and replaced if necessary. The chain guidance is easily and laterally disassembled within a few movements without complete dismounting of the chain hoist. This results in considerable time savings. The 3-stage gear has helical gearing...

SPECIAL PRODUCTS For many industrial lifting applications standard GIS electric chain hoists offer the ideal solution. Depending on the complexity of the task and the conditions on site we offer GIS special products. Whether for the synchronous operation of two load hooks, for a corrosion resistant or explosion-proof version or an electric chain hoist with control unit on the load hook - we offer a customer- and application-specific solution for each lifting requirement. GPK Lifting capacity up to 4000 kg Low headroom version; the solution for especially low rooms Obtaining room height using...
