Product Description
The CM Lodestar Model C Electric Chain Hoist is designed for frequent industrial lifting, production work and accurate positioning of suspended loads. The products shown use single-reeved load-chain configurations with 10, 15 or 20 ft lifting heights. The listed configurations include one-speed and VFD-controlled models with 115 VAC, 230 VAC, 460 VAC or reconnectable 230/460 VAC electrical arrangements.
Lodestar NH models feature a heavy-duty DC brake positioned for convenient inspection, a lifetime grease-lubricated gearbox and improved access to the clutch, motor and electrical controls. The overload clutch is located outside the load path, while the five-pocket liftwheel improves engagement with the load chain for smoother operation, reduced vibration and longer chain life.
The Classic Lodestar configurations provide compact electric lifting with rigid hook or rigid lug suspension options for integration with suitable overhead supports and trolley systems. Precision gearing and durable lifting components support repeated service, while the available one-speed and VFD arrangements allow the control configuration to be selected for the application.
