SPOTLIGHT Wherever tough or hazardous operating conditions place excessive demands on lifting operations, Profi series air hoists from J D NEUHAUS (JDN) can rise to the challenge. JDN says its Profi range is now deployed in applications that range from chemical (including pharmaceutical, paints and varnish), foundries, and food and beverage, to list but a few and in such industries, the inherent design attributes of Profi hoists are proven that they can perform safe, high-performance and cost- effective lifting and lowering operations. Profi air hoists are known for their robust design, a characteristic that makes them suitable for tough industrial applications, even in continuous working processes. Safety features, such as 100% duty rating and explosion protection are an important advantage when working in hazardous areas. In line with customer requirements, various control systems are available, including remote controls, while for traversing loads, different trolley designs can be specified. Put simply, Profi hoists excel in places where safety is paramount. After all, unlike electricity, compressed air does not generate sparks, while overload protection is available and is often provided as standard. What’s more, the chain and hook are manufactured from high-quality tempered steels with a breaking strength some five times the nominal load. t | 01224 722751 e | info@jdneuhaus.co.uk w | www.jdngroup.com SAFE AND RELIABLE LIFTING SARUM HYDRAULICS reports for over 50 years, alloy two speed hand pumps have been the shop or site workhorse for pressure testing to 700 bar and above and says it has taken the best features and brought them up to date on its MD series two speed hand pump.
