Clean rooms are highly controlled environments that require specialized equipment to ensure cleanliness and safety. When it comes to
overhead cranes for clean room applications, there are specific design considerations that need to be taken into account. This month, DQCRANES designed and provided a double girder
5 ton overhead crane with
electric chain hoist for a clean room in Saudi Arabia, to meet their special applications.
Client's Background:
Our client is a leading pharmaceutical company in Saudi Arabia. They specialize in the production of sterile medications and medical devices. As part of their expansion plans, they decided to build a new clean room facility to meet the increasing demand for their products. The clean room had strict requirements in terms of cleanliness, temperature, and humidity control.
Client's Requirement:
The client required an overhead
bridge crane that could safely and efficiently handle heavy loads within the clean room environment. They needed a lifting solution that would not contaminate the sterile environment and would comply with the stringent cleanliness standards of the clean room.
Clean Room Overhead Crane Design Solution:
After carefully analyzing the client's requirements, our team of engineers designed a customized double girder 5 ton eot crane with an electric chain hoist specifically for clean room applications. The crane was designed to meet the cleanliness standards of ISO Class 5, which is the highest level of cleanliness required for pharmaceutical clean rooms.
- Stainless Steel Construction: To ensure cleanliness and prevent contamination, the entire structure of the crane was made from stainless steel. Stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and can be easily cleaned and sterilized.
- Sealed Electrical Components: All electrical components of the crane were sealed to prevent any dust or particles from entering and contaminating the clean room environment. This included sealed motors, enclosures, and wiring connections.
- Clean Room Grade Hoist: The electric chain hoist used in the crane was specifically designed for clean room applications. It had a sealed housing, stainless steel load chain, and self-lubricating bearings to minimize maintenance and prevent contamination.
- Smooth and Silent Operation: The clean room crane was equipped with advanced noise reduction technology to ensure smooth and silent operation. This was crucial to maintain the quiet and sterile environment required in the clean room.
Benefits:
- 1. Cleanliness Compliance: Our double girder overhead crane with electric chain hoist met the strict cleanliness standards of the clean room, ensuring the integrity of the pharmaceutical production process.
- 2. Efficiency and Safety: The 5 ton clean room crane provided efficient lifting and handling of heavy loads, improving productivity and reducing the risk of manual handling injuries.
- 3. Durability: The stainless steel construction and sealed electrical components ensured the longevity of the crane, even in the demanding clean room environment.
Production and Delivery:
Once the design was finalized, our manufacturing team began the production process. The double girder overhead crane was manufactured using high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure precision and reliability. After rigorous quality control checks, the crane was ready for delivery. It was carefully packaged and transported to the client's site in Saudi Arabia.
Installation:
Our team of experienced technicians traveled to Saudi Arabia to install the crane in the clean room facility. The installation process was meticulously planned and executed to minimize any disruption to the client's operations. Our technicians worked closely with the client's team to ensure a smooth and successful installation.
Feedback:
After the installation, our client expressed their satisfaction with the performance of the double girder overhead crane with electric chain hoist. They were impressed with its cleanliness compliance, efficiency, and durability. The crane significantly improved their lifting operations in the clean room, allowing them to meet their production targets more effectively.
Types of Electric Hoists for Clean Rooms:
Electric hoists are an essential tool for lifting heavy loads in clean rooms. The following are some most commonly used electric hoists in clean rooms.
- Clean Room Electric Chain Hoist
Clean room electric chain hoists are designed to meet the specific requirements of clean room environments. These hoists are made of stainless steel and have a sealed motor and gearbox to prevent contamination. They are also equipped with a clean room grade chain that is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. These hoists are ideal for lifting heavy loads in clean room environments.
Clean room electric wire rope hoists are another popular option for lifting heavy loads in clean rooms. These hoists are made of stainless steel and have a sealed motor and gearbox to prevent contamination. They are also equipped with a clean room grade wire rope that is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. These hoists are ideal for lifting heavy loads in clean room environments.
Clean room electric trolley hoists are designed to be used with a trolley system, which allows the hoist to move along a track. These hoists are made of stainless steel and have a sealed motor and gearbox to prevent contamination. They are also equipped with a clean room grade chain or wire rope that is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. These hoists are ideal for lifting heavy loads in clean room environments.
Clean room electric winches are designed to be used with a winch system, which allows the hoist to lift heavy loads vertically or horizontally. These hoists are made of stainless steel and have a sealed motor and gearbox to prevent contamination. They are also equipped with a clean room grade wire rope that is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. These hoists are ideal for lifting heavy loads in clean room environments.
In conclusion, electric hoists play a crucial role in lifting heavy loads in clean room environments. The hoists listed above are specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of clean room environments and are ideal for lifting heavy loads safely and efficiently. Welcome to
contact DQCRANES, we are very pleased to help you choose a suitable hoist equipment that meets your specific requirements.
