With our DC-Pro chain hoist, Demag meets their own high standards in terms of quality and innovation.The DC-Pro chain hoist is a fully featured, highly versatile chain hoist, which can be installed and put into service in minimum time. Many features that have to be ordered and bought as extras elsewhere are already integrated as standard. The result:

• “all inclusive” features at no extra cost
• two lifting speeds as standard
• improved safety thanks to 24 V contactor control, operating limit switches and elapsed operating time counter as standard
• slipping clutch with automatic cut-out by means of speed monitoring
• optimum ergonomics and ease of service
• main components are maintenance-free for up to 10 years.
