Product Description
The JET® SSC Series electric hoists are a perfect blend of safety and durability, ideal for commercial and industrial use. These hoists come with a slip clutch overload protection, which stops the hoist from lifting loads beyond its rated capacity, preventing damage. They are available in single or three-phase options to meet your electrical requirements. The single-phase models have a thermal overload protection to avoid overheating, while the three-phase models feature a reverse phase relay that safeguards against incorrect wiring. The industry-tested DC electro-magnetic brake adds an extra layer of safety by holding the load even during power outages. The maintenance-free gear train with a sealed oil bath ensures long-lasting performance. The JET® SSC series hoists are available in capacities from ½ ton to 5 tons, with standard lifts of 10, 15, and 20 feet (custom lifts can also be arranged). Key features include multiple safety mechanisms like limit switches to prevent over-travel of the load chain, and durability features such as a sealed gear train, Grade 80 load chain, a 24-volt push button control pendant with a cable strain relief system, and all-steel construction with a powder coat finish to protect against moisture, dust, and debris. Here are the specifications: Headroom is 30-11/16 inches, lift is 20 feet, number of falls is 4, motor power is 2-1/7 HP, lifting speed is 6 FPM, duty cycle is 30%, load chain dimensions are 8 x 24 mm, motor phase is 3, motor voltage is 230 / 460 V, load capacity is 5 tons, and duty cycle rating is H4.
Using your Jet electric chain hoist is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly installed in a suitable location. Check the power supply to ensure it matches the motor phase and voltage specifications. When lifting a load, ensure it doesn't exceed the rated capacity of 5 tons. Use the control pendant to operate the hoist, and keep an eye on the limit switches to prevent over-travel. Remember, the reverse phase relay protects against incorrect wiring, so don't try to bypass it. As for maintenance, since the gear train has a sealed oil bath, it's maintenance-free. However, regularly inspect the Grade 80 load chain for any signs of wear or damage. Also, check the all-steel construction for any signs of corrosion or physical damage. If you notice any issues, stop using the hoist immediately and contact a professional for repair. Keep the hoist clean and dry to extend its lifespan and ensure safe operation.
