J D Neuhaus has a reputation for the
supply of safe, reliable, lowmaintenance
handling equipment
for chemical and other
industries with hazardous
environments. The major safety
factor of the JDN products,
including cranes, hoists and
winches, is that the equipment is
operated by compressed air (or
optionally hydraulics), rather than
electric power. Lifting equipment is
100% duty cycle rated, thus
eliminating downtime, and can be
remotely controlled using pendant
cable controllers, or wireless
hand-held radio operated units.
Equipment safety ratings for use in potentially explosive conditions are Ex II 2 GD IIA T4(X)/II 3 GD IIB T4(X). Increased spark protection, involving a galvanised copper plated finish for the hoist bottom block and load hook assembly, can be supplied to achieve an Ex II 2 GD IIB T4(X) rating.
Increased sparking protection, for operation in explosions group IIC, covers the supply of bronze running wheels, travelling gears and the hand gear mechanisms of trolleys for a rating of Ex II 2 GD IIC T4(X).
All units, including the larger capacity JDN handling products with lift capacities up to 115t, are suitable for lube-free operation with easy maintenance.
