The hand chain hoist model Yalelift YLLH with integrated low headroom manual trolley is the latest development of the Yalelift IT. When little headroom is available, the Yalelift YLLH is the ideal choice. All units of this series upto a capacity of 3000kg are provided with a single chain fall and the minimum headroom has been further reduced. Ideal for applications with low ceiling and limited headroom. The manual trolleys are adjustable to fit a wide range of beam profiles (e.g. INP, IPE, IPB). Depending on the beam flange width, an adjustment up to 300mm can be made easily.
The combination of the Yalelift 360 with a low headroom manual trolley provides even more flexibility in the application of the Yalelift 360. The trolley wheels are designed for a maximum beam profile incline of 14% (DIN 1025 - part 1), excellent rolling features are guaranteed by pre-lubricated, encapsulated ball bearings. The specially developed chain reeving system and chain guide allow the bottom block to be pulled laterally to the hoist further up and almost against the beam flange.

- 3 metre lift height supplied as standard.
Hoist Features
- Anti-tilt and anti-drop devices are built in to the trolley as standard.
- All models have their own chain guide to prevent chain tangling.
- Excellent rolling features due to machined steel trolley wheels mounted on pre-lubricated, encapsulated ball bearings.
- All models of the LH series up to 3000kg SWL are supplied with a single chain fall.
- The proven and almost stepless adjustment systems allows quick and easy assembly of the trolley.
Optional Features
Corrosion resistance CR - Added lifetime
All models of the Yalelift programme can be supplied with corrosion resistant features which include zinc-plated load chains and stainless steel hand chain as standard.
Corrosion protection
Corrosion starts on the surface of components due to reaction of environmental influences. This affects the mechanical properties of the components, e.g. breaking strength and total ultimate elongation. Many components are supplied in black (unmachined), bright (machined) or painted condition. This offers certain protection but after only a short period of time corrosion can begin. With the application of a protective coating, the development of corrosion can be reduced and delayed, thus extending the service life of the treated components.
Applications for corrosion resistant units and zinc-plated or stainless steel load chains
Completely corrosion resistant units with either zinc-plated or stainless steel load chains should be used in all conditions with increased requirements towards corrosion protection. Typical applications are in food processing (e.g. dairy, abattoir, etc.), chemical industries (e.g. paper, dye industries), farming and sewage treatment. Illustrated rubber buffers optionally available.
All models of the Yalelift Vario programme can be provided with the following optional features for additional protection against sparking:
- Load and hand chains from stainless steel.
- Units completely corrosion resistant.
- Bronze-plated suspension and load hooks.
- Solid bronze trolley wheels.
- Rubber buffers.
- Chain containers.
Overload protection: Added control
The overload protection device of the Yalelift Vario programme reliably prevents excessive load take-up of the hoist during operation. When reaching the pre-set overload value, the unit will jam and stop operation in the lifting direction. Lowering of the load is still possible at any time. The overload protection device provides additional safety with regard to possible false estimation of the load weight and thus increases the lifetime of the hoist. The new design principle allows excellent adjustability and response.
Beam locking device
Added security Yale trolleys can be optionally provided with beam locking device to secure the unloaded trolley in fixed position on the beam (park position e.g. on ships).
Chain container: Added comfort
The chain containers for the Yalelift Vario programme consist of a robust, powder-coated steel frame with a flexible chain bag made from high tensile Cordura textile fabric. Available in different sizes. Special sizes on request. Spark resistance In nearly all industrial areas, and not only in the chemical industry, plants are operated in explosion endangered environments. Because of the great damage an explosion could cause to people and material, stringent legal and technical requirements are imposed, particularly on electrical equipment used in explosion endangered environments.
This is a good quality very low headroom hand chain block that is supplied with either manual or geared travel trolley. Low headroom is sometime referred to as Close Headroom and basically means that the load hook raises very high / close to the underside of the runway lifting beam. More expensive than a standard trolley hoist combination though if you are short of headroom this is a very good value for money hoist compared to other products available. This YaleLift Hoist is made to order and supplied in capacities up to 6000kg with many special options such as stainless load chain and designed suitable for ATEX sparkproof environments
