Emergency lowering device
December 1st 2011

As part of an ongoing safety evaluation for its products, J D Neuhaus has introduced an emergency lowering device for its EH range of air operated monorail hoists.

With this feature JDN complies with the leading standards like NORSOK, specifying an emergency device for the safe lowering of loads in the event of a cut in the main power supply.

The new device supplements an existing fail-safe disc brake, which is activated in the immediate event of a mains power failure, ensuring that suspended loads are held safely and securely at their above-floor level until mains power is again made available.

JDN monorail hoists with lift capacities from 25 to 60t can now be equipped with the latest safety development. This comprises an additional separate pressurised air reservoir tank (maintained at a mains air pressure of normally 6 bar), with a purpose built hand controller incorporating two additional pushbuttons.
