Harrington Hoists’ new mini electric chain hoists

Harrington Hoists, Inc has released two new lines of mini electric chain hoists designed for use in medium to heavy-duty industrial settings, repair shops, garages and any facility with limited space.

Harrington’s EM series three-phase mini electric chain hoists are available in 250, 500 and 1000lb capacities. The company’s SEM series single-phase mini electric chain hoists are available in 500 and 1000lb capacities. The standard configuration is top hook mount. Harrington’s PT series push trolley may also be paired with these hoists for added mobility.

These hoists have a compact and rugged die-cast aluminium body with no sharp edges and feature a high-performance motor brake, a chain guide designed to prevent chain tangling, completely sealed housing allowing for both indoor and outdoor use and nickel-plated load chain for corrosion resistance.

The EM and SEM series hoists are certified and listed to UL 1340 ‘Standard for Hoists’ and CSA 22.2 No. 33 ‘Construction and Test of Electric Cranes and Hoists’ and include a low-profile upper limit switch to protect the hoists from overwinding. Both models are designed with a state-of-the-art control system using solid state relay (SSR) technology and a microcontroller unit (MCU) to increase the longevity of the hoist and provide superior safety functions.
