Description

IMER 300kg 110volt Builders Gantry Hoist: Safe & Efficient Material Handling

The IMER 300kg 110volt Builders Gantry Hoist, typically represented by the IMER ET300 Complete Builders Gantry Hoist System, provides a robust and reliable solution for vertical material transport on various construction projects. Its self-supporting gantry frame, coupled with a powerful electric hoist, makes it an indispensable tool for moving materials quickly and safely from ground level to elevated working areas, or vice-versa.

Features

  • 300 kg Max. Lifting Capacity: Capable of safely lifting loads up to 300 kg (661 lbs), making it ideal for handling a wide range of building materials such as bricks, bags of cement, tiles, tools, and smaller equipment.
  • 30 Metre Max. Working Height: Features an impressive maximum working height of 30 meters (98 ft 5 in), allowing it to efficiently service multiple floors of a building or lift materials to high rooflines.
  • 110 Volt Power Supply: Designed to operate on a standard 110V / 50Hz single-phase electrical supply, making it compatible with typical construction site power regulations and enhancing safety due to the reduced voltage compared to 230V systems. The motor typically has a power rate of 1.1 kW.
  • Self-Supporting Gantry System: The complete system includes a robust gantry frame (often comprising an A-frame, front and rear goalposts, and a running beam), eliminating the need for scaffolding attachment in many scenarios. This frame provides excellent stability and versatility.
    • 3.3 Metre Running Beam: The integral running beam allows the hoist trolley to traverse horizontally, enabling materials to be moved along the edge of the working area.
    • 1 Metre Overhang: The beam typically allows for an overhang of approximately 1 meter beyond the edge of the safety board, facilitating effortless manoeuvring of materials over the building edge.
  • Fast Lifting Speed: Achieves an average full-load lifting speed of approximately 19 meters per minute (62 ft/min), significantly boosting productivity and reducing manual labour time.
  • High-Quality Wire Rope: Equipped with a durable 5 mm diameter steel wire rope, typically 31 meters in length, providing strength and longevity for repetitive lifting operations.
  • Enhanced Safety Features: Safety is paramount in IMER designs:
    • Upper Limit Lever & Micro Switch: Automatically stops the hoist when the load reaches its maximum top position, preventing over-winding and potential damage.
    • Spring-Loaded Safety Catch Hook: The load hook includes a robust spring-loaded safety catch to securely retain the load during lifting and lowering.
    • Hoist Trolley Positioning Brake: Allows the hoist unit to be locked into position anywhere along the running beam, ensuring stability during loading/unloading.
    • Self-Braking Motor with Brake Rectifier: Ensures secure holding of the load when the power is off or the operator releases the control, preventing accidental descent.
    • Rubber End Stops: Fitted at each end of the running beam to prevent the hoist trolley from exceeding its travel limits.
    • Front Kickboard & Ballast Boxes: To comply with safety regulations, the gantry system comes complete with a front kickboard to prevent items from falling off the edge and lockable ballast boxes (requiring up to 250kg of ballast weight, not supplied) at the rear for counterbalancing, ensuring stability.
    • IP65 Plug: Provides protection against dust and water ingress, suitable for demanding site conditions.
  • Durable & Reliable Construction: Built with robust components, including helically toothed gears in a permanent oil bath, ensuring smooth, quiet operation and long-term durability in tough construction environments.
  • User-Friendly Controls: Operated via a pendant control with clear "Up," "Down," and "Emergency Stop" push-buttons, providing direct and intuitive control to the operator.
  • Easy Manoeuvrability (Hoist Trolley): The hoist unit is mounted on a trolley with four high-quality aluminium wheels, allowing for smooth movement along the gantry beam.

Applications

The IMER 300kg 110volt Builders Gantry Hoist is highly versatile and indispensable for:

  • Residential Construction: Lifting bricks, mortar, roof tiles, timber, and other building materials to upper floors or roof levels.
  • Renovation & Refurbishment: Efficiently moving materials into or out of existing structures, particularly where access is restricted.
  • Flat Roof Construction: Ideal for lifting insulation, roofing felts, aggregates, and tools onto flat roof areas.
  • New Build Projects: Essential for material flow on sites before scaffolding is fully erected or in areas where scaffold hoists are impractical.
  • Material Lowering: Safely lowering waste, debris, and unused materials from elevated positions.
  • General Site Material Handling: Any task requiring controlled vertical movement of loads up to 300kg.
