The Yalelift 360 SR Spark Resistant hand chain hoist once again proves its worth in an environment that far exceeds the requirements of a classical hand chain hoist. On the basis of the European Directive 2014/34/EU this model series has been further developed for the use in potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX zones).
The 360° rotating hand chain guide allows the operator to work from almost any position, in confined spaces, above the load or at 90° to the load which makes it possible to use the hoist for horizontal pulling or tensioning. Due to the additional flexibility, the operator is no longer forced to work in the danger zone near the load.
Available in 500kg, 1000kg, 2000kg, 3000kg, 5000kg, 10000kg and 20000kg capacity options.
Yalelift 360 SR Features
- Enclosed robust stamped steel housing protects all internal components even in the toughest conditions.
- Extremely low headroom allows maximum use of the lifting height.
- Extremely quiet braking system guarantees operational safety and improved serviceability due to omission of the vulnerable ratchet pawls.
- All parts are made of high quality materials, additionally zinc-plated or yellow-chromated to increase corrosion prevention.
- Chain guide and gearbox are almost totally enclosed. Even under the toughest conditions the internal gearbox remains protected.
- The hardened load sheave with four precision machined pockets ensures accurate movement of the load chain.
- The surface protected zinc-plated alloy steel load chains fulfil all requirements of current national and international standards and regulations. They are matched perfectly to the load chain sheave and guarantee
smooth and precise chain motion. - 360° Rotating high tensile drop forged load and suspension hooks that yield under overload instead of breaking.
- Explosion protected version with spark resistant coating.
- Copper-coated suspension and load hooks for MEDIUM design or higher.
- Stainless steel load chain for HIGH design.
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.
Examples of explosion hazards in various industries
- Chemical industry
- Waste disposal sites
- Energy production companies
- Waste management companies
- Gas suppliers
- Metal processing companies
- Wood-processing companies
- Paint shops
- Agriculture
- Food and feed-stuffs industry
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Refineries
- Recycling companies
More Information:
The combination of the Yalelift 360 with a low headroom manual trolley provides even more flexibility in the application of the Yalelift 360.
- All units of this series up to 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 trolley is 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 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.
- Anti-tilt and anti-drop devices are standard.
- A subsequent conversion of a Yalelift 360 into a Yalelift IT with integrated trolley is easily possible at any time.
