Precision control: SMC 4 Multicontroller monitors load, speed and temperature in real-time

Overload protection: continuous electronic monitoring at rope anchor point

Finger-protection system: guards operators during hook-block operation

Maintenance-free gearbox: vented and sealed for lifetime lubrication

Temperature and condition monitoring: prevents overheating and extends service life

Radio or pendant control options: push-button or master-switch ergonomics

CraneKit ready: integrate easily into single- or double-girder cranes

Maintenance and Servicing

The KE-X monorail trolley allows fitting to existing monorail systems or single-girder cranes, with flange adjustment from 90 – 500 mm. The dual-drive shaft design distributes load evenly across the trolley wheels for smooth travel and minimal wear. Optional travel-limit switches and towing arms improve positioning accuracy and operator safety. ULS engineers can install, commission and test your Stahl Wire Rope Hoist in line with LOLER and PUWER requirements, supplying full certification on completion.

Safety Features

Every SXD / SXF hoist is built around active protection and intelligent monitoring to safeguard both operator and equipment.

Integrated electronic overload protection

Continuous load measurement at the rope anchor point prevents overloading and automatically limits the hoist to its rated capacity.

Emergency upper & lower limit switches

Dual gear limit system protects against over-travel in both directions.

Condition monitoring & anti-jogging logic

Motor management suppresses excessive inching movements, reducing thermal and mechanical stress on the drivetrain.

Redundant safety brake system

Frequency-controlled SXF variant uses continuous speed and load monitoring; brakes act only as holding or emergency brakes to minimise wear. Fully compliant with EN 14492-2, EN 15011, and EN 13001-2.

Safe torque shut-off (STO)

Hardware-based safety circuit instantly removes motor and brake power if an emergency stop or fault signal occurs.

Finger-protection system

Newly developed guard elements prevent hands from entering the hook-block or running-rope area while maintaining rope-angle flexibility.

Temperature and phase monitoring

Continuous detection of motor overheating, short-circuit, or phase loss. Faults are logged for diagnostics.

Load-dependent speed control (DLS)

Protects structural and electrical components by reducing speed automatically as load approaches full capacity.

Lifetime-lubricated gearbox & vent system

Prevents pressure build-up, leaks, and contamination—reducing maintenance-related risk.

Compliance & standards

Conforms to EN 61800-5-2, EN 61508, SIL 2, DIN EN ISO 13849-1 PL c, LOLER, and UKCA marking requirements.
