The OZSR010-20CH Spark Resistant Chain Hoist is purpose-built for safe, dependable lifting in explosive or flammable environments, where standard hoists cannot be used. With a 1-ton (2,000 lbs) lifting capacity and 20-foot lift height, this hoist combines rugged performance with precision engineering to deliver superior control and operator safety. Designed in compliance with ATEX94/9/EC and Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, the OZSR010-20CH meets the stringent explosion-proof level of EX II2 GD c IIIC T135°C. This certification makes it fully suitable for Zone 1 & 2 (gas) and Zone 21 & 22 (dust) environments.

Every component of this hoist is carefully crafted to reduce spark risk and ensure reliable operation in hazardous workspaces such as chemical plants, oil refineries, pharmaceutical facilities, and paint production sites. The spark-resistant construction features bronze-coated hooks, stainless steel hand chain, and non-sparking internal gears, all designed to prevent ignition in volatile atmospheres. Its Grade 80 stainless steel load chain ensures exceptional strength, smooth operation, and corrosion resistance, even in environments with chemicals or moisture.

The OZSR010-20CH is engineered for ease of use and long-term dependability. Its fully enclosed precision gearing minimizes effort during lifting and protects the internal mechanism from dust and contaminants. The Weston-style twin pawl brake system provides consistent, positive load control—ensuring that every lift, hold, and release is executed safely. For added flexibility, the 360° rotating top and bottom hooks allow easy load positioning and secure attachment, while the ergonomic hand chain ensures smooth, controlled lifting with minimal operator fatigue.

Durability is further enhanced by a powder-coated finish, offering resistance against rust and corrosion in challenging industrial conditions. Each hoist also comes with a free spare set of safety latches, underscoring OZ Lifting Products’ commitment to reliability and user safety.
