What type of bins can this hoist accommodate?

This class of hoist is typically designed for standard 200-litre tote bins, also known as Eurobins or DIN 9797 bins. Buyers should confirm compatibility with their specific bin dimensions.

Is this hoist suitable for washdown environments?

Yes, with Grade 304 stainless steel construction and an IP65 rated control panel, units of this type are generally suitable for regular washdown in food processing environments.

What are the typical safety considerations for operating a column bin hoist?

Key safety features often include 'hold to run' controls, upper and lower limit switches, and a safety latch for chain failure. Adherence to PUWER regulations and site-specific risk assessments are crucial.

Can the discharge height be adjusted?

While the listed unit has a fixed discharge height, the end-of-travel limit switches are typically adjustable by trained personnel for fine-tuning on site. Significant height changes may require modification.

BTM/250/1850/B/SL Single Column Bin Hoist

This Single Column Bin Hoist is a 200 Litre tote bin tipper with a side loading lift carriage that is designed to lift and tip at a discharge height of 1850mm. The Column Bin Hoist is manufactured from Grade 304 stainless steel, is a welded construction throughout and is designed to be bolted to the floor. The lifting is achieved by a ¾” Simplex chain driven by a motor gearbox mounted at the top of the main column. The unguarded Column Bin Hoist is fitted with our unique safety latch which engages automatically in the extremely unlikely event of a lift chain failure.

Column Bin Hoist Electrical Control

This Column Bin Hoist is fitted with an IP65 Stainless Steel Control Panel which is mounted on the main column at a convenient position to give good maintenance access under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulation 1998 (PUWER). Upper and Lower end of travel limit switches are positioned to prevent inadvertent adjustment or damage but are easily adjustable by trained personnel for fine adjustment on site. The unguarded Column Bin Hoist operates on a ‘hold to run’ principle such that the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ pushbuttons must be held for the Column Bin Hoist to operate. As soon as either button is released, the Column Bin Hoist will stop. The control panel has a volt free pair of contacts which can be used to connect a ‘Call to Run’ signal if required.
