With a service life of up to 1,900 hours, the Demag DC-Pro electric chain hoist includes safety and performance features that reduce downtime, increase duty cycles, ease maintenance and improve ergonomics. Many components are maintenance free for up to 10 years. These features allow the hoist to be more productive and result in lower operating costs. Safety features include brakes that do not require adjustment and clutches that provide protection against overload and slippage. The chain hoist is available in 275-lb to 11,000-lb capacities, and comes with a pendant control or, as the DCM-Pro, with a Manulift control unit connected with a helical cable.
