Description
Specialist Chandelier Winch for Architectural Lifting Applications
The BHW CH Electric Powered Chandelier Winch (110–470 kg WLL) is a specialist architectural hoist designed for the safe, controlled lifting and lowering of lighting fixtures, chandeliers, and suspended installations. Engineered for precision, reliability, and minimal maintenance, this compact electric winch is ideal for theatres, auditoriums, churches, exhibition spaces, and commercial buildings where safe access to overhead fixtures is essential.
240V Single-Phase Power for Smooth, Quiet Operation
Operating on a standard 240V single-phase power supply, the CH series provides smooth, quiet lifting performance with efficient load holding, allowing fixtures to be raised and lowered without the need for dismantling. This significantly improves maintenance efficiency while reducing downtime and operational risk.
Dual Braking System for Secure Load Holding and Control
The system incorporates a dual braking mechanism consisting of a mechanical ratchet brake operating in an oil bath and an electromagnetic motor brake. This ensures secure load holding and controlled stopping under all operating conditions, enhancing both safety and reliability.
Compact Aluminium Die-Cast Design for Confined Installations
Designed with lightweight aluminium die-cast components, the winch offers a compact footprint, making it suitable for installation in restricted ceiling voids or confined spaces. The enclosed drum flange prevents wire rope misalignment or trapping, while the precision-engineered spur gearbox ensures smooth, low-noise operation.
Multiple Capacity and Drum Length Configurations Available
The CH series is available in multiple capacities (110 kg, 200 kg, 300 kg and 470kg), with additional options for higher capacities where required. Various drum lengths are available to suit different lifting heights, and the system can be configured with spin-resistant wire rope for improved safety and performance.
For enhanced functionality, the hoist can be supplied with a range of system components, including pre-wired control panels, key-operated safety switches, and calibrated limit switches that allow the installer to define upper and lower stopping points. A double pulley system can also be integrated, enabling maintenance work to be carried out without disconnecting the electrical supply to the fixture.
With a duty cycle of 25% and up to 60 starts per hour, the BHW CH winch is designed for consistent, controlled operation in professional environments. Its combination of safety features, compact design, and flexible configuration options makes it a dependable solution for architectural lifting applications.
