EN THE CHALLENGE
Our customer specifically required an ATEX Zone 1 rated flame proof polipastos eléctricos de cadena that was safe to use in a hazardous gas, vapour and mist environment that could be configured with existing steel work on the oil rig where it would be installed.
THE SOLUTION
The customer specified the need for a quality product that could operate in a harsh working environment and still operate at the highest level with long periods between usage. We supplied our customer with 3 sets of explosion proof electric chain hoists that are rated for safe operation in an ATEX zone 1 – hazardous gas, vapour and mist environment.
So that the electric chain hoists were compatible with the customers’ existing steel work we designed and manufactured a bespoke dead hang bracket that meant the chain hoists, supplied with a standard eye suspension, could be configured with the bracket to safely mount to the steel beam in a fixed mount position. Each explosion proof polipastos eléctricos de cadena had a safe working load of 1,000kg and could achieve a maximum 3 meter height of lift which ensured it could safely accommodate the range of lifts our customer required as part of their offshore operation.
