Double Girder Crane with Explosion-proof Hoist

In industrial settings where flammable gases, uap, or dust particles pose constant explosion risks—such as petrochemical plants, kilang minyak, coal mines, pharmaceutical facilities, and chemical processing plants—safety and reliability are non-negotiable. The Double Girder Crane with Explosion-proof Hoist is engineered to meet these extreme challenges, combining the robust load-bearing capacity of a double girder structure with the precision safety of an explosion-proof hoist system. This specialized lifting solution delivers unparalleled performance, daya tahan, and peace of mind for operations where even the smallest safety lapse can lead to catastrophic consequences.

Core Design & Konstruksi: Built for Hazardous Excellence

At its core, this crane system is a fusion of two heavy-duty, explosion-proof-engineered components: A derek overhead girder ganda and a custom explosion-proof electric hoist, designed to adhere to the strictest international safety standards (including ATEX, IECEx, and NFPA 499). Every part of the system is constructed to prevent ignition of flammable atmospheres, making it ideal for Class I, Division 1/2 and Class II, Division 1/2 hazardous locations as defined by the U.S. OSHA and global regulatory bodies.

1. Double Girder Crane Main Structure

The double girder framework forms the stable backbone of the crane, offering significant advantages over single-girder models in terms of load capacity, span range, and operational stability:

• ◆ High-Strength Steel Girders: Fabricated from premium-grade low-alloy structural steel, the main girders are precision welded and stress-relieved to ensure maximum rigidity and load-bearing strength. They support heavy loads without deflection, even at maximum span lengths (hingga 31.5 meter), making the crane suitable for large industrial facilities.
• ◆ End Carriages & Mekanisme Perjalanan: The crane travels on a runway beam via heavy-duty end carriages equipped with explosion-proof drive motors and wheels. The travel mechanism is engineered for smooth, vibration-free movement, with anti-derailment devices and limit switches to prevent over-travel. Gearboxes are sealed and lubricated for long-term reliability in dusty, corrosive hazardous environments.
• ◆ Bridge Frame & Mekanisme Pengangkatan: The bridge frame connects the girders and end carriages, with a trolley traversing the length of the girders to position the hoist horizontally. The trolley’s movement is driven by an explosion-proof motor and worm gear reducer, ensuring precise positioning even under full load.

2. Explosion-proof Hoist: The Heart of Safety

The explosion-proof hoist is the critical component that differentiates this crane from standard lifting equipment. It is fully certified for explosive atmospheres, with every design element eliminating potential ignition sources:

• ◆ Explosion-Proof Motors & Controls: The hoist’s lifting and traversing motors, along with all electrical controls (contactors, relays, saklar batas), are housed in explosion-proof enclosures. These enclosures contain any internal sparks or arcs and prevent them from igniting flammable gases/vapors in the surrounding environment. The insulation class of the motors is upgraded to F/H for enhanced heat resistance and safety.
• ◆ Overload & Safety Protection: Equipped with dual overload protection (mechanical and electrical), the hoist automatically stops lifting when the load exceeds the rated capacity to prevent structural failure. Additional safety features include upper/lower limit switches, anti-sway technology to minimize load swing, and emergency stop buttons for instant shutdown in emergencies.
• ◆ High-Strength Lifting Components: The hoist uses a heavy-duty steel wire rope (atau rantai, for chain hoist models) with a safety factor of 5:1, meeting or exceeding industry standards. The drum is precision machined to ensure uniform rope winding, preventing rope entanglement and wear. For extreme environments, the rope can be galvanized or stainless steel to resist corrosion.

Double Girder Crane with Explosion-proof Hoist Key Technical Parameters

Unmatched Advantages for Hazardous Operations

• 1. Ultimate Safety Compliance: Fully meets global explosion-proof and safety standards, ensuring full compliance with regulatory requirements for hazardous industrial environments and eliminating the risk of explosion-related accidents.
• 2. Superior Load Performance: The double girder structure, paired with a 1-32 ton load capacity range, delivers stable and efficient handling of both medium and heavy loads. Its robust design outperforms single-girder cranes in longevity and load-bearing stability, supporting frequent lifting operations across different weight tiers.
• 3. Presisi & Efisiensi: Penggerak frekuensi variabel (PKS) technology enables smooth speed control and precise positioning of the load, reducing material damage and improving operational efficiency—critical for industries with high-value or fragile cargo. The 7.5-31.5m span and 6-18m lifting height further expand operational flexibility, covering large-scale facility layouts and diverse lifting height demands.
• 4. Daya tahan & Pemeliharaan rendah: All components are constructed with corrosion-resistant materials and explosion-proof seals to withstand harsh conditions (debu, kelembaban, corrosive gases). The system’s modular design simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime, while the A3-A5 working class ratings ensure adaptability to varying operational frequencies, from light to moderate intensity use.
• 5. Customization Flexibility: Tailored to meet specific site requirements, including custom span adjustments, lifting height optimization, hoist types (wire rope/chain), and explosion-proof ratings. Optional features include radio remote control, explosion-proof lighting, and collision avoidance systems.
