Powered Hoists

Electric Chain Hoists

Electric chain hoists are designed to meet operational needs and provide precision lifting and durability.

Electric chain hoists are mechanical devices used for lifting and lowering heavy loads in various industrial and commercial settings. They operate on electricity, making them convenient and powerful tools for material handling.

The core components of an electric chain hoist include an electric motor that drives a chain wound around a drum or sprocket. When activated, the motor causes the chain to move, raising or lowering the attached load. These hoists come in a range of load capacities, from small units suitable for lighter tasks to heavy-duty models capable of lifting several tons. The lifting speed can also vary depending on the specific model.

Electric chain hoists offer several advantages over manual lifting methods. They provide precise control, reducing the risk of accidents, and are highly efficient, saving time and effort. They are commonly used in industries such as manufacturing, construction, warehousing, and automotive maintenance to streamline material handling processes and enhance workplace safety.

Household voltage. Industrial power

The SER delivers the duty cycle of a three-phase hoist on the power budget of a 110V, 115V, or 220V single-phase hoist. Going above and beyond H4 industrial use ratings, this powerhouse is equipped with a TEFC motor and a self-adjusting, maintenance-free pull-rotor brake.

Small but mighty

Be ready to lift with the ED, designed to plug into any standard 115V socket. We love it for it’s variable-speed option, productivity, and portability. And we know you’ll love a small hoist that runs at speeds up to 44 fpm.

Don’t let limited voltage hold you back

Meet the SEQ family of powered hoists, the latest innovation in safety and performance. Enjoy smoother starts and stops, unmatched precision, and a Variable Frequency Drive for speed to meet your requirements.

Single-handed operation. Single-phase power

Kito’s variable-speed ED hoist operates on standard 115 V with the added benefit of an ergonomic cylinder control for ease and comfort. The EDCL is perfect for any production line, while still being small enough to move between job sites.

Built to last

The ER2 electric hoist is engineered for peak performance—no matter the job. Its quiet operation and minimal vibration reduce workplace noise pollution, help lower worker fatigue, and extend the life of your hoist.

When working clean is critical

The FER food-grade electric chain hoist is your best choice for lifting applications in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries—where maintaining a pristine environment is essential. Run your production line with confidence knowing the FDA-approved food-grade lubricants used on the load chain and in the gearbox are NSF H1 compliant for safe use where incidental contact with product is a concern.

Don’t let low voltage hold you back

Meet the EQ family of three-phase powered hoists, the latest innovation in safety and performance. Enjoy smoother starts and stops, unmatched precision, and a Variable Frequency Drive for speed to meet your requirements.

Single-handed operation. Three-phase power.

Ergonomically designed, this three-phase cylinder control ER2C Series delivers everything you need for a safe and easy operation. It features Guardian Smart Brake technology – an electrical fail-safe design and an in-line grip for one-handed operation allowing the user’s free hand to position the load easily. The sealed body allows this dual-speed hoist to hold up in the harshest environments, whether indoors or out.
