Air Wire Rope Hoists
Yale® Cable King air wire rope hoists are ideal for many applications and conditions that make electric hoists uneconomical or impractical to operate. Air motors are sealed against dust, moisture, and corrosive gases. External air is kept out by internal air pressure. This is why air hoists are suited to many grain, coal, and chemical operations. Air hoists perform well where heat may be a problem either from extremely heavy-duty cycles or from above average ambient temperatures. Since air motors won't overheat, air hoists are often found in electroplating operations and foundries. When you buy a Cable King air wire hoist, you buy it with confidence that it will be on the job for a long time to come. This series is rated for 1/2 Ton to 35 Ton capacity and available in a wide variety of configurations.
Features
| Brakes - Load brake is a self-actuating, Weston screw-and-disc type brake. It is mounted in the gearbox between the first and second gear reductions, and operated in a continuous oil bath to help dissipate heat |
| Motor brake - Disc type motor brake controls hook drift and facilitates load spotting. This spring-engaged brake is designed to operate if the air supply is interrupted for any reason |
| Rope Drum - Fabricated steel drum machined with grooving cuts up to 50% of the rope's diameter to guard against the rope jumping out of the groove, which can damage and weaken the rope |
| Motors - Yale Cable King uses a heavy-duty rotary piston air motor designed for high torque hoist duty. The motor provides excellent speed control for precision load spotting. It is lubricated by a continuous oil bath and incorporates an integral oil baffle, oil thrower, and large diameter crankcase breather plug |
| Limit Switches - A geared traveling nut limit switch is standard. It is a two position switch with adjustable upper and lower limits and is designed to prevent hook over-travel |
| Gear Trains - Gears and pinions are machined from steel, and the case hardened to reduce wear. |
| Controls - Cable King hoists are equipped with either a modular pendant control (standard) or a pull cord (optional). The cast aluminum pendant controls incorporate levers for single motor operations |
