Pneumatic hoists, also referred to as air hoists or air-powered hoists, are engineered for demanding, high-frequency lifting applications.
With a 100% duty cycle, they outperform electric hoists where continuous or prolonged use would cause overheating.
Lifting speed is operator-controlled via push button or cord pendant, adapting to varying lift heights with ease. Their spark-free, non-electric operation makes pneumatic chain hoists and pneumatic wire rope hoists the preferred solution for explosive atmospheres (ATEX), offshore platforms, oil refineries, and heavy industrial maintenance.
