Industrial Hoists Cases

Scanclimber by Tractel's industrial hoists are used in many different industrial settings such as mines, storage silos, power plants and shipyards.

The EU's requirements, with the Ministry of the Environment’s regulations, demand that companies polluting the atmosphere, from industrial processes and operations, monitor and control their level of emissions.

The chimney and its hoists produced by Scanclimber are used for the transportation of employees with their required gas monitoring equipment and to carry out periodic maintenance work. These inspection hoists could be mounted on the inside or outside of a chimney. At the Kozienice Power Plant, under a contract with UNISERV, Scanclimber has manufactured and installed a SC400K inspection hoist inside Block 10’s chimney.

This chimney was built by using sliding technology, with a cylindrical shape with a fixed outer diameter.

The Scanclimber SC400K hoist has a lifting capacity of 400 kg (~4 people) with a total height and top landing at the height of 140 meters. The hoist also has four other landings.

In addition to regular safety controls, a telephone connected directly to the power station control room as well as to the landings was included. An independent safety brake was installed as standard and the cabin could also be lowered to the ground in the event of an emergency.
