FAQs – CPV F Yale Electric Chain Hoist 400V (2500 – 5000 Kgs)

What lifting capacities are available in the CPV F Yale hoist range?

The CPV F Yale Electric Chain Hoist is available in capacities ranging from 250kg to 5000kg. The models covered here focus on 2500kg and 5000kg capacities, ideal for heavy-duty lifting in industrial settings.

What hoisting speeds are available for the Yale Electric Chain Hoist?

Both single-speed and dual-speed models are available. For example, the CPV/F 25-8 (2500kg) operates at 8 & 2 m/min, and the CPV/F 50-4 (5000kg) operates at 4 & 1 m/min. These variable speeds offer better control when positioning heavy loads.

Can I use a CPV hoist with a powered trolley?

Yes. All CPV/F hoists are compatible with both push and powered travel trolleys. You can purchase these separately or integrated into your hoist configuration. For added safety and control, remote-controlled powered trolleys are also available.

Are these Yale hoists suitable for outdoor use?

The hoists come with an IP55 rating, offering protection from dust ingress and water jets. For enhanced protection in exposed areas, optional raincoats are available for both hoist and trolley components.

What type of suspension options are available for the CPV F Yale Electric Hoist?

You can choose between a top hook suspension, top lug suspension (for lower headroom), or have your hoist pre-fitted to an integrated push or electric trolley. These options ensure maximum flexibility depending on your crane beam setup.

What is the duty cycle of the CPV F hoists?

The CPV F hoists operate with a 50% duty cycle (ED) for single-speed hoists, which is suitable for moderate to frequent lifting operations during a shift.

Are limit switches included?

Yes. All models are supplied with integrated upper and lower limit switches as standard. These protect the chain and mechanical parts from over-travel, extending the life of the hoist.

Do these Yale hoists have overload protection?

Yes. Every CPV and CPV/F hoist includes a slip clutch for overload protection, preventing the operator from exceeding the safe working load.

Can I control the electric chain hoist remotely?

Yes. The hoist is compatible with Flex radio remote control systems, which can be installed and tested at the factory. Contact us for a bespoke quote including a remote setup.

Do you offer hoist installation services?

Absolutely. We provide full crane and electric hoist installation services across the UK via our in-house engineering team. Visit our Crane Installation Services page or contact us directly to schedule a site visit.

Is the hoist customisable for lift height?

Yes. Standard lifting heights are available from 3m to 15m, but we can supply longer chain lengths upon request. Please contact our sales team for a custom quote.

How often should my hoist be serviced?

Under normal conditions, the CPV/F hoist should be serviced annually in accordance with LOLER regulations. We also offer preventative maintenance packages to keep your equipment compliant and in peak condition.
