Kinesys - Products - Elevation 1+

The Elevation 1+ takes the Elevation range and adapts it to allow variable speed control of chain hoists. The Elevation 1+ controller is designed to be located local to the chain hoist that it controls. This innovative approach removes the need for large quantities of cabling and permits a number of motors and controllers to be supplied by single power and data cables. The units use the same network and protocol as the other members of the Elevation family and consequently will happily share their data network with Elevation 1 controllers.

Due to the additional complexities involved in providing variable speed control to a chain hoist Elevation 1+ controllers cannot be used to control standard chain hoists. Kinesys are able, however, to supply customised versions of the most popular models of chain hoist. Most existing chain hoists can even be retro-fitted with the changes required. In addition once a chain hoist has been converted to run with Elevation 1+ it can still be used as a standard fixed speed chain hoist with the addition of a simple adaptor cable.

Once installed the ability to ramp start, ramp stop, position and vary the speed of a chain hoist will allow your motors to take on applications which previously would have required the purchase or rental of winches.
