Mobile chain hoist
Something has to be pulled up or held up at various points of the room?
Use a mobile chain hoist!
Mobile chain hoists don’t require a fixed installation. They can be installed anywhere on the stage where appropriate loading points are established. Apart from planning these loading points, no other preparation is necessary for chain hoists.
Chain hoists can be categorized into following groups:
-
D8
After lifting, the load has to be secured, and it should not be held by the chain and moved above people’s heads. -
D8+
Securing the load is not necessary, the load may be held by the chain but it cannot be moved above people’s heads. -
BGV C1
Securing the load is not necessary, the load may be held by the chain and it may also be moved above people’s heads.
Only type D8+ and type BGV C1 can be used in theaters!
