EUROCHAIN VR: The new generation of VERLINDE electric chain hoists for loads from 63 to 5.000 kg
With its completely new design, EUROCHAIN VR is VERLINDE's new range of electric chain hoists. Thanks to its new, fully ergonomic design, EUROCHAIN VR offers a wide range of innovations that guarantee the highest levels of safety, productivity and ease of maintenance.
The EUROCHAIN VR is designed to provide users with the maximum level of safety. In its standard version, it features a new lifting load wheel concept with intermediate teeth to drive the chain, a button unit punch-type On/Off switch, a torque limiter, a disk lifting brake, a very low voltage command (48V), direction speed version variation, a safety electric limit switches for up and down position and complies with the CE machine directive.
EUROCHAIN VR increases productivity. All models offer a wide range of speeds, 25% quicker than the previous generation. The lifting motor is also dual speed as standard for smoother operation. EUROCHAIN VR can lift up to 2.5 tonnes on 1 wire in FEM 2m, providing the possibility of working at higher lifting heights while reducing the chain bag dimensions and so making the lifting unit more compact.
Lubricated for life to reduce maintenance, the reducer is designed for extremely long operating periods of up to 3200 hours. The high precision machining on the gear trains also guarantee operation with a very low level of noise annoyance. The clutch is very easy to access for occasional maintenance operations and its position in the reducer holds the load via the brake regardless of the machine's operating conditions.
A new patented concept, the 5-slot lifting load wheel has 5 intermediate teeth for perfect control over the lifting chain, enabling better guidance for the chain and avoids any risk of jamming. The lifting hook's maximum up and down positions are secured by the electric limit switches located under the chain guidance system. The switches are activated alternately by the lifting hook's upper cone or the slack chain stop.
The electric unit's printed circuit boards are fitted with removable plugs to facilitate maintenance operations and the lateral flanges can also be dismantled easily for all interventions. The motor device, which can also be dismantled easily for all replacement or maintenance operations, is fitted as standard with a thermal protection probe. The motor's forced ventilation is provided by a fan at the end of the shaft and a developed air evacuation circuit (side and front vents). They provide optimum cooling to the hoist body and an increased lifetime for the lifting motor. The hoist body is protected by 70µm epoxy powder paint and is able to operate in aggressive thermal environments (-20C° to +50 C°).
The lifting hook has an ergonomic gripping zone and the block is protected by a rubber coating. The lifting hook has a large opening for easier connection with the under hook lifting accessories. The upper cone has a dual function: activation of the electric end of run and collection of the surplus oil used to lubricate the chain. The button unit is available in a 2, 4 or 6-button version depending on whether the hoist operates in fixed hooked position, travelling trolley on monorail or travelling crane with crossing movement or electric rotation jib. As standard, it is IP55, with a 48 V low voltage command and a removable plug.
Multiple options are proposed: gear limit switch, second brake on lifting motor, attachment by eyelet to replace the upper hook, automatic closing lifting hook, travelling limit switches, low headroom trolley, trolley for curved track, dual speed steering carriage (20 & 5 m/min), etc.
