T-Series configurations
Three ways to hang an EGON chain hoist
Pick the configuration first, then the model in the specification tables below.

Stationary suspension type (ST)
A very low distance between the upper and lower hook gives you more working height.

Electric trolley, standard headroom (UE)
The hoist travels along the beam flange on its own electric trolley.

Heavy duty type (ST/UE)
Multi-fall chain hoists with twin lifting motors for heavy loads.
Key features
Built for precise, safe lifting
Cycloid transmission
Higher precision in lifting and lowering.
Double limit switch
Stops lifting and lowering automatically to prevent over-travel.
Front-motor clutch
An extra layer of protection for the hoist and the load.
Power-loss brake
Holds the load instantly when the power supply is cut.
Reverse phase protection
The control circuit will not run if incoming power is connected incorrectly.
36 VAC control voltage
Low control voltage protects the user and the system if current leaks.
G80 alloy load chain
Imported FEC / G80 super heat-treated alloy steel chain.
Enclosed outer case
Light, strong and fully enclosed, with high heat dissipation for harsh sites.
Double-chain saddle design
Lets you configure the suspension scheme flexibly. Fabric or steel chain bag.

Duty classification
Match the hoist to your duty class
EGON sizes hoists by FEM and ISO duty groups. Estimate your load spectrum and average daily operating time, then read the group from the table.
| Load spectrum | Definition | 1Bm (M3) | 1Am (M4) | 2m (M5) | 3m (M6) | 4m (M7) | 5m (M8) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light | Only occasionally loaded to the maximum, with a medium dead load. | up to 2 | 2–4 | 4–8 | 8–16 | over 16 | — |
| Medium | Usually small loads, but rather often maximum loads. | up to 1 | 1–2 | 2–4 | 4–8 | TBC | over 16 |
| Heavy | Usually medium loads, but frequently maximum loads. | up to 0.5 | 0.5–1 | 1–2 | 2–4 | 4–8 | 8–16 |
| Very heavy | Usually maximum or almost maximum loads. | up to 0.25 | 0.25–0.5 | 0.5–1 | 1–2 | 2–4 | 4–8 |
Average operating time per day: tm = (2 × HW × ASP × AZ) ÷ (60 × V), where HW is the average hook path (m), ASP the cycles per hour, AZ the working hours per day and V the hoisting speed (m/min).
How to choose
7 questions for choosing the right chain hoist
- What are the operating conditions? Environment, temperature, humidity, dust and space.
- What is the specified safe working load? The maximum load capacity for safety.
- To what height must the load be lifted? This sets the chain or rope length and the hoist type.
- What is the required lifting speed? High for production, low for maintenance.
- Must loads be lifted and lowered with great accuracy? Use an inverter or dual-speed motor for precision.
- Is horizontal load travel necessary? Then choose a hoist with a trolley, or a crane system.
- How is the hoist to be controlled? By pendant, remote control or control panel.

FAQ
Electric Chain Hoist: common questions
Quick answers from the product catalogue.
What lifting capacities do EGON electric chain hoists cover?
The EGON T-Series covers 0.5 to 30 tonnes: stationary suspension models from 0.5 to 5 t, electric trolley standard headroom models from 1 to 5 t, and heavy duty models from 10 to 30 t.
What is the difference between ST and UE chain hoists?
ST models are the stationary suspension type, hung from a fixed point. UE models are the electric trolley standard headroom type, which travel along the beam flange. Heavy duty models from 10 t are offered as ST/UE.
What duty class are EGON chain hoists?
Every model in the T-Series catalogue is rated M5 (ISO), which is group 2m under FEM.
What power supply does an EGON chain hoist need?
AC 380 V, 3 phase, 50 Hz. The control circuit runs at 36 VAC for user safety.
Should I choose a single-speed or dual-speed chain hoist?
Both are available on every model. Dual speed adds a slow speed, for example 2.2 / 6.8 m/min on a 1 t hoist, so the load can be positioned precisely.
Which safety features are standard?
A power-loss brake, double limit switches, a front-motor clutch, reverse phase protection and a 36 VAC control voltage. The load chain is imported FEC / G80 heat-treated alloy steel.
