Yale KALC Air Chain Hoist - 3 Ton Hook/Lug Suspension 10 ft Lift 10 FPM

Product Description

Product Description:
The Yale KALC Air Chain Hoist is a premium industrial pneumatic lifting solution engineered to provide dependable, high-speed lifting performance for continuous-duty applications. Designed for manufacturing facilities, assembly operations, fabrication shops, maintenance departments, power generation, mining, shipyards, oil and gas, and chemical processing plants, the KALC Series combines rugged construction with precision pneumatic control to deliver smooth, accurate load handling in demanding industrial environments. Operating entirely on compressed air, the KALC is ideal for locations where electrical power is undesirable or where hazardous atmospheres require pneumatic lifting equipment. Yale also offers spark resistant models for applications involving combustible gases, vapors, or dust. (Yale/Columbus McKinnon Product Literature)

The KALC features a high-efficiency pneumatic vane motor that provides smooth, infinitely variable lifting and lowering speeds through an ergonomic pendant throttle control. Multiple lift-speed configurations are available to optimize productivity while allowing operators to accurately position suspended loads. Models are available with either hook or lug suspension for maximum installation flexibility on overhead lifting systems. Precision air controls provide responsive operation with excellent feathering capability, improving operator control while reducing fatigue during repetitive lifting operations.

Manufactured from heavy-duty steel components, the KALC incorporates precision-machined gearing, heat-treated load-bearing components, and premium alloy steel load chain engineered for exceptional tensile strength, wear resistance, and long fatigue life. Forged upper and lower hooks rotate to reduce chain twisting and are equipped with heavy-duty safety latches to provide secure load engagement. Fully enclosed gearing and sealed internal components protect the hoist from dirt, dust, and moisture, reducing maintenance requirements while extending equipment life. Spark resistant models incorporate non-sparking external components specifically designed for hazardous work environments. (Yale Product Literature)

Each Yale KALC Air Chain Hoist is factory load tested before shipment and manufactured to meet applicable ASME B30.16 performance standards. Designed for continuous industrial service, the KALC Series delivers outstanding reliability, precise load control, low maintenance requirements, and long service life in the most demanding lifting applications.
