Manriding winch rated at 204 kg (450 lbs) working load limit with 2 cranking speeds.
Advanced Digital Winch / SADW-3524






The UCL Advanced Digital Series Winches are rated for a maximum working load of 204 kg (450 lbs) with an 11:1 safety factor. This winch offers 1 or 2 cranking speeds capable of retrieval/descent at average speeds from 13ft/min (4 m/min) up to 30 ft/min (9 m/min).
Available in 3 standard sizes, 100, 200 and 300 Series winches holding up to 300 feet of 3/16" (5mm) diameter cable/rope. This winch also accommodates various diameters of cables up to 3/8" and ropes up to 5/8". All cable/rope assemblies come with a double locking swivel snap hook with overload indicator.
Digital Series Winch features crank handle options: 2 speed removable or 1 speed permanent mounted handle. The removable handle can be combined with a power drive option giving the flexibility of manual or powered cranking options. A unique feature of the winch is the "digital usage indicator" system that counts the revolutions of the drum to determine service intervals and is exclusive to the Digital Series Winch.
Additional standard features include braking system with 3 independent working pawls, centrifugal back-up brake, carrying handle and cable
retainer spring.

Manual Drive
This manual powered Advanced Digital Series Winch includes a removable aluminum crank handle to utilize both our 9:1 and 4:1 drives.
These two drives offer the capability of retrieval/descent at average speeds from 13 ft/min (4 m/min) up to 30 ft/min (9 m/min).
Powered Drive
The 'drill' powered Advanced Power Drive Digital Winch features a power drive hub on the 9:1 drive. An overload protection clutch installs between this power drive hub and an electric or pneumatic drill to eliminate overloading the winch during retrieval. This clutch also protects the winch operator and the retrieved worker from injury.
The clutch is installed and removed without the use of tools when switching to the 4:1 manual crank option in emergencies.
