Spark Resistance:

• In nearly all industrial areas, there are workplaces which need to be protected against explosions. Because of the great damage an explosion could cause to people, property and materials, strict legal and technical requirements are imposed. The Spark Resistant range of chain hoists helps to make the workplace a safer environment.

Corrosion protection

• Corrosion starts on the surface of components due to 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 doesn't prevent corrosion
• With the application of a protective coating, the onset of corrosion can be reduced and delayed, thus extending the service life of the treated components.

Yale ATEX Levels of Protection

All of Yale’s ATEX hoists meet the following standards: EN1127-1:1997; EN13463-1:2001; EN13463-5:2003, and are supplied complete with the relevant ATEX approval documentation.

Yale (Columbus McKinnon) offer three levels of protection - BASIC, MEDIUM, and HIGH.

Under directive 94/9/EC, equipment for areas with an explosion hazard are assigned to groups, categories and temperature classes. This is necessary as the requirements for equipment need not be the same for every application and for every hazard classification.

NB: It is the responsibility of the end user to identify the explosion proof classification required, NOT the hoist manufacturer or the supplier. Reference Directive 99/92/EC.

Why explosion protection?

Explosion protection for electrical and mechanical machinery is an important precautionary measure to ensure the safety of persons and all kinds of production, storage and distribution systems, when explosive mixtures of combustible gases, dusts and air may occur.

What does explosion protection achieve?

Explosion protection can mean to generally prevent the ignition of an explosive mixture. Explosion protection can also be achieved by eliminating potential ignition sources in advance, e.g. high temperatures and sparking. In many trades and industries, combustible gases, vapours and dusts are handled which have the potential to cause explosions.
