Description

The Apex Hoist 500 electric chain hoist meets Use Cases 1 thru 4 of EN17206 for hoist safety. Low-noise brakes across the range along with the ability to ‘hover’ allow the use of the compact Apex system in environments where chain hoists previously may not have been appropriate.  The Apex Hoist logs all the key usage data including run time, maximum load experienced by the hoist, maximum temperature reached and number of brake operations.

Interfaces with the Apex Drive v2 NAV for seamless system integration. As part of the TAIT Navigator Automation Platform, Apex Hoist 500 can perform intricate and precise movements while maintaining complete control over the load.
