Wire Rope Hoists: special environments - explosion proof

SATURN manufactures Explosion Proof Hoists and other Explosion Proof Crane Equipment.

SATURN Machines are designed in accordance with our interpretation of the specifications of the National Electric Code, Underwriters Laboratory and Factory Mutual but are NOT tested by them, nor do they carry their label as a whole.  However, most of the Individual Electrical Components do carry an Underwriters Laboratory (UL) Label.

Please NOTE; the full responsibility for determining the existence and severity of a hazard in a specific area rests with the (Authority) responsible for enforcing that code.  

Additional NOTES:

  • SATURN machines are available for Class I (Vapors): Groups C & D and Class II (Dusts): Group E, F & G (As Division 1 or 2)
  • SATURN uses TENV motors as standard on all Division 2 applications (With Contained Hazard) as permitted by NEC code.
  • Any requirements for Spark Resistant Features in severe hazardous environments lies with the (Authority)
  • Spark Resistant Features generally include Stainless Steel Wire Rope, Bronze Trolley Wheels and Bronze Hook and/or Complete Block.
