At only 14kg, the hoist is lightweight but durable; it is particularly suited for repetitive handling of smaller loads. With a helically geared, three-step drive, it is quiet in operation and designed for a long working life with intense use (min. FEM 2m / ISO M5).

All shaft-hub connections are built with a polygonal design, allowing faster disassembly and assembly during maintenance and reduced service costs. The mangan phosphate coated and case hardened Profile Steel Chain enables a chain diameter 7% smaller than round steel chain with the same load capacity. The control switch fits comfortably in the hand and is designed for long-term ergonomic operation.

Proven GIS components like the DC spring brake and dry-running slipping clutch are standard. The latter is effortless to maintain and accessible, while the gearbox contains permanent lubrication. The GPM series has contractor control and no sensitive electronics as per the philosophy of GIS.

Protection class IP65 is also standard on the GIS GPM electric chain hoist, which is protected against dust and water, suiting units for mobile and outdoor use. The GPM250 model handles 80kg to 250kg loads in one-fall operation.

A wide range of accessories and options are available. The user can choose between eye- and hook-suspension, for example. The electrical power connection can be either three- or single-phase and there is a choice of different dual lifting speeds, while the lifting height can be increased up to 90m. In combination with GISKB aluminium or steel profiles, Lift Turn Move can offer tailored solutions with jib cranes or crane systems.
