Kito Crosby introduces the addition of Harrington brand hazardous location electric chain hoists to their three-phase electric chain hoist line.

These revolutionary hoists are designed for use in hazardous locations (HazLoc) where fire or explosion hazards may exist due to flammable gasses or combustible dust:

These hoists are available in three different models for various hazardous location atmospheres: 

  • The RNER2 model is suitable for Class II Division 2 with protected dust groups F (coal) and G (grain).
  • The RNER2B model is designed for Class I, II Division 1 with protected gas groups C (Ethylene) and D (Propane) and with protected dust groups F (coal) and G (grain).
  • The RNER2D model meets the requirements for Class I Division 2 with protected gas groups of B (Hydrogen), C (Ethylene), and D ( Propane).

Capacities range from 1 to 5 Tons with a standard 10’ lift and are available in either a top hook configuration or with a trolley if additional mobility is required. The RNER2 model’s standard configurations, including certain options, are certified and listed to applicable UL standards and marked UL. The RNER2B and RNER2D models are listed to applicable UL and CSA standards and bear the cULus mark.

Standard premium quality features include low-headroom upper and lower limit switches, a long-life slip clutch protecting the hoist from damage, a super-strong nickel-plated load chain, and the industry-proven “The Guardian” Smart Brake Technology, our failsafe maintenance-free brake with a 10-year warranty.
