Overview

Engineered to perform in the industry’s toughest applications and most extreme conditions
Kito’s high performance ER2 Electric Chain Hoist Series are striving for the first place in the industry when it comes to safety, longevity and maintenance.
The ER2 is characterized, in particular, by its high product spectrum, offering the customer an array of choices. Load capacities from 125 kg up to 20 t cover a wide range of applications. Its versatility, from the hook version to the plain trolley up to 5 t and the use of a geared or electric trolley up to 20 t, distinguishes this model as a universal hoist. This is further underlined by the special twin hook version and the variant with an extra-short headroom height. Because of its easy handling, the ER2 is used in almost all sectors, including the paper industry, in shipyards, foundries, and on major construction sites.
In its development of the ER2, Kito has focused on functionality. This means that, without any superficial gimmicks, the robust and solidly constructed hoist, with pioneering inverter technology or with 24-V contactor control, is able to perform its tasks with ease. The production depth offers a further advantage to customers as it guarantees them a high degree of security. Well over 70 % of all the parts we use come from our own production.
An important component of this production depth is the load chain, which differs appreciably from that of its competitors. Kito is the only manufacturer in the world to nickel-plate its load chain. The advantage of this process is that no hydrogen embrittlement occurs as a result of the permeability of the nickel surface to hydrogen molecules. Because of its special properties, nickel is particularly well suited as a surface coating for many applications. This makes the range of applications for this electric chain hoist unparalleled: its advantages ensure that this hoist is even ideal for operations where aggressive media have to be handled.

Overview

Infinitely variable speed control for particularly smooth lifting, lowering and positioning of loads

As an addition to its existing product range, Kito offers the Electric Chain Hoist ER2 Stepless Speed with variable speed control. The speed remains at the discretion of the operator and can be adjusted appropriately for different tasks. Consequently, work processes can be optimised accordingly.
The hoist features an frequency inverter and a special push button control station with buttons that stroke 6.5 mm. The control switch has no pressure points like those in other switches, but works like an accelerator pedal. When the switch is pressed, the chain hoist accelerates and moves to a specified position. At the same time, this speed is saved by the so-called teach-in process. It can later be reduced or increased for other motion sequences. In doing so, lifting and lowering can be accelerated or decelerated from 16% of maximum speed to 100% of maximum speed, simply by depressing the push button.

The ER2 Stepless Speed hoist is ideal for eliminating load-bounce in jib or bridge cranes, making load positioning safe, easy and intuitive for the operator. As well, the hoist is perfectly suited for fine positioning in assembly operations, or in cases where the load is delicate and valuable.

The ER2 Stepless Speed hoist operates with variable lifting speed, and is available for a capacity range of 125 kg to 5 t . The ER2 is well known for its “cushioned start and stop” feature based on the ramp-up and ramp-down speed control programmed into the frequency inverter. It is ideal for delicate loads or precise load positioning.
Similar to all Kito electric chain hoists, the ER2 Stepless Speed hoist comes standard with the Kito brand grade 80 NP type load chain. This nickel plated chain is well known for its corrosion resistance, as well as a super-smooth surface that greatly reduces link to link wear.

Overview

When height becomes an issue – the Kito Electric Chain Hoist SHER2M for low ceiling heights
In situations where every centimetre of headroom is vital, the Kito Electric Chain Hoist SHER2M (Short Headroom ER2 Motorised Trolley Type) is a welcome solution.
Apart from use in buildings with low ceilings, it is also ideal where considerable lifting heights are necessary. This is accomplished by means of a special Kito chain guide. Thanks to this, the load can be raised almost up to the support beam. With its state-of-the-art inverter technology or with 24-V contactor control, the SHER2M is able to perform the tasks assigned to it with ease.
The basic unit is Kito’s evergreen product, the Electric Chain Hoist ER2, characterised by its large bandwidth. Its load capacities from 125 kg to 5 t cover a wide range of applications. Because of its easy handling, the ER2 is used in almost every sector.
On the basis of this diversity of variants, the product can be individually adapted to transport or production sequences as required. This also applies to use on girders, cranes or load carriers.
A further advantage for the customer is the depth of production, which offers the customer a high degree of safety, since well over 70 % of all the parts used originate from our own production.
An important component of this production depth is the load chain, which differs appreciably from that of its competitors. Kito belongs to the few manufacturers in the world to nickel-plate its load chain. The advantage of this process is that no hydrogen embrittlement occurs as a result of the permeability of the nickel surface to hydrogen molecules. Because of its special properties, nickel is particularly well suited as a surface coating for many applications.

Overview

Safe and synchronous load transport with only one hoist – the Kito Twin Hook Electric Chain Hoist TWER2M
Wherever loads have to be kept horizontal or simultaneously raised or lowered, the Kito Twin Hook Electric Chain Hoist TWER2M (Twin Hook of the ER2M Series) comes into its own.
The synchronised movements required can now be realised with only one hoist. This variant differs fundamentally from the solutions provided by most manufacturers, as these require two hoists to handle the load. Furthermore, no motor runs exactly like any other, so an expensive synchronous regulator has to be used. Following a strategy of conceptual functionality Kito developed the TWER2M with the aim that a 100 % synchronisation can be realised. The secret: One motor drives a twin load chain pinion, so that both chains and both load hooks can be moved synchronously. Fine adjustment presents no problem, should there be a slight variation in synchronisation.
With this technical innovation, Kito possesses a unique selling point, where due to the synchronous variant of the TWER2M, one hoist can be dispensed with. In combination with the electric chain hoist ER2, the twin hook version is even more interesting for the user. A particular feature of the hoist is its high bandwidth, which offers the customer a wide range of options.
The Twin Hook Electric Chain Hoist, which is primarily designed for rolled steel profiles, is especially useful for the handling of long loads such as pipes and steel rods, for example. In this case, the spacing of the hooks can be adapted, according to customer requirements, to the length of the loads to be transported.
The load is moved by operation of the control unit. Additional manual guidance of the load by the operator is not necessary, since rocking of the load is eliminated. By means of the integrated inverter a smooth and precise positioning of the load will be enabled. The hoist can also be fitted with a variety of load holding mechanisms for use in individual cases.
A further advantage is the great production depth, which offers the customer a high degree of security. This applies in particular to the load chain, which is nickel-plated by Kito, which differs appreciably from the load chains of the competitors. The advantage of this manufacturing process is the elimination of hydrogen embrittlement, as the nickel surface is permeable for hydrogen molecules.

Overview

A Milestone on the market for Electric Chain Hoists
Its compactness and its reduced dimensions are some of the special features of Kito’s Electric Chain Hoist EQ. The EQ offers in comparison to Kito’s ER2 series, a considerable reduction in the net weight by 23 %. With the lifting capacities ranging from 250 kg, 500 kg to 1 t the EQ can be used to perform a wide range of commonplace tasks. Furthermore a wide variety of suspensions and lifting heights are available.
The EQ product line is targeted at moderate and heavy duty users, with several unique design features that benefit these customer segments.
The EQ includes an inverter that provides an industry-first “light load high-speed” function that automatically increases hoist speed to 130 % when the load is less than 30 % of WLL. As a result, users can expect the production cycle to improve up to 115% of standard. This unique operating characteristic makes the product ideal for assembly line, work station, and repetitive operation applications.
As well the inverter provides these benefits: cushioned and adjustable speed for ultimate load control as well as electronic thermal and overload protection. The inverter and its unique software also eliminate several wear items typically used in conventional hoists, including a transformer, contactor, or brake coil.
The hoist employs a highly durable pull-rotor brake system, proven reliable in past Kito products. Up to two million brake cycles can be expected from the system.

Overview

The compact one with power from the wall socket
The Kito Electric Chain Hoist Series ED is unsurpassed in its versatility. Anywhere a 220 – 240 V AC connection is available this Kito ED III hoist can be used immediately.
That may, for example, be in smaller workshops and building sites and in storage areas, but, the electric chain hoist is also a dependable tool in dispatch, where larger cardboard packages have to be lifted. Furthermore this small hoist has been tested and has become practically indispensable for the transport of loads inside wind turbine towers.
The unit is designed for loads from 60 – 240 kg. Because of its light weight it can be quickly and individually deployed at different places. The gear casing is made from aluminium and is resistant to weathering and rust.
But heavier loads of up to 480 kg also present no problem. An optional upgrade set, consisting of upper hook, lower block and a longer chain, can be ordered. The upgrade can be carried out quickly and easily. With the corresponding type plate, the ED may then be used with a double chain for higher loads.
This also gives the advantage of a range of load capacities dependent on the lifting speed. In the load capacity range from 60 to 160 kg, the maximum speed is up to 20 m/min. There are also two motor variants, a DC motor with 300 W for the load capacity ranges 60, 100 and 180 kg, and a larger variant with 600-W output for load capacities up to 160, 240 or, with a double chain, up to 480 kg. Safety features include a high-performance mechanical brake with a friction clutch and an upper lift limit switch for increased safety.
The standard equipment includes a plastic chain box for 3 or 6 m lifting height. For lifting heights up to 15, 30 and 70 m, a canvas container is used, while a special receptacle is required for greater heights. As options, the system offers the mini-trolley TMH 25, a plain trolley or a geared trolley up to 500 kg.

Overview

Easy handling of the load with only one hand
The Kito Electric Chain Hoist Series ED is unsurpassed in its versatility. Anywhere a 220 – 240 V AC connection is available this Kito ED III hoist can be used immediately.
Kito offers the Electric Chain Hoist EDC for special applications. This unit is equipped with a cylindrical handgrip control unit and is mainly used in the handling technology. By means of a potentiometer in the cylinder control unit the speed can be adjusted independently. For ergonomic reasons, its lifting height is limited to 1.8 m. The operator guides the load with one hand, while controlling the lifting or lowering process. This is particularly convenient for repetitive transport procedures. It is possible to vary the preset speed to optimize the working process. Different load holding equipment, such as crate or package grippers, also ensures operator-friendly load handling. The bayonet closure permits quick changing of a wide variety of grippers and hooks.
