Overview of low headroom chain hoist
Low headroom chain hoist is a kind of lifting equipment with a compact structure. Compared with average hoists, the design of the low headroom chain hoist reduces the distance from the hook to the beam to compress its height. Therefore, the lifting height of low headroom hoists can be increased by 200 ~ 500mm, it is more flexible and convenient to use in a small space workplace. Beside, with an electric traveling trolley, you can walk up and down the I-beam, usually in four different directions: up, down, left and right. Electric chain block is an ideal tool for lifting, transporting, loading and unloading goods and heavy objects.

What is headroom?
Headroom means the space from the electric hoist suspension point to the fully raised hook saddle. (For a chain hoist with hook mount, the headroom dimension is the distance between the saddle of the top hook and the saddle of the fully raised bottom hook.)

As you can see from the diagram, the headroom is the space between where the trolley rides on the beam to the load point on the hook. Always remember that headroom is measured with the load chain in its uppermost position as seen here.


Attention: before choosing your electric chain block, remember to consider the height of the facility where the hoist will be installed. If you need to maximize the lifting height, the lug option with extremely low headroom is the best choice, or just feel free to tell us your requirements.

Features of electric low headroom chain hoist
Compact design for maximum lifting height
Operates smoothly and silently and is highly maintenance-friendly
G80 chain with good quality
A plastic or canvas chain bag is included to protect your chain
Control with an emergency stop button, the voltage is reduced to 24 V for increased safety.

Safety stops over-lifting and minimizing using an upper-lower limit switch.
Customizing lengths of load chain, power cord, and pendant cord is available on request
Trolley wheel flange width is manufactured with a tailored specification for the individual beam. H-Beams, Universal Beams, Customized Box girders, and I-beams are among the beams that the hoist with trolleys can accommodate.
Special input voltages are available as optional specifications
Speeds of lifting speeds: single or dual
Color can be made as your required : blue , yellow , orange , red and so on


Notice: above all parameter just for your reference, special requirements can be customized based on clients' demands.

Application of low headroom hoist
Low clearance electric chain hoist is composed of two traveling trolleys and a motor. These compact hoist and trolley combinations are real space savers! The trolley has been specially designed to accommodate the curvature of the chain hoist case, allowing the hoist to ride higher than most other hoist/trolley configurations. The hoist with trolleys can be moved to fit a wide range of beams including H-Beams, universal beams or fabricated box girders or I-beams.

Low clearance chain hoist is suitable for the workplace where has strict requirements for lifting height low plant height to operate it, especially suitable for temporary plant or in which the need to expand the effective lifting space.

Besides, these low headroom hoists are ideal for applications with confined headroom and offers efficient, secure, and maintenance-free performance. They are widely used in molds, machinery manufacturing, warehousing logistics, ship building, bridge construction and other industries.

About the operator
The operator are supposed to be responsible for the safe operation, lifting and avoiding all possible risks involved during working. And we provide free operation guidance for clients to make full use of our products. Electric chain hoist can only be controlled by operators with the following qualifications:

Completely master the operation skills of the low headroom hoist
The age of operator is over 18.
The operator shall perform daily checks before operating
Capable both physically and mentally.
Have been instructed in operating and maintaining the product and have shown proof of their competence.
May be expected to perform the duties assigned to them reliably and have awareness of the risks and dangers.
Safety instructions for electric chain block
Electric chain blocks from Yuantai are all equipped with safety devices, such as limit switches, overload protection, double brakes and so on. However, sometimes danger which caused by improper operation cannot be prevented. Please read the safety instructions carefully and work as safe as possible.

Ensure before starting with lifting, that the safe working load will not be exceeded
When lifting loads, ensure that they are in a stable position in order to avoid accidents.
A safe and clear working environment should be guaranteed
Never try to solve a malfunction while the load is suspended
Take notice of the relevant instructions when attaching loads
Never attempt to straighten the hook when it is distorted
Never touch metal components without protective gloves
The hoist and trolley shall be tested and inspected by a relevant expert before commissioning
Report damage and defects of the hoist to the responsible person timely, do not use the hoist until it has been repaired
