  •  Two electric hoists capacity does not exceed the design capacity of the double hoist crane. That is, if you want to hang two 1Ton electric hoists, the double hoist crane lifting capacity should be 2ton or more.
  • If the double hoist crane total lifting capacity is greater than or equal to 1Ton, it need to the enterprise which have relevant qualifications to carry out the reconstruction.
  • Anti-collision device.
  • If the two electric hoists use distance is far, it can directly use travel switch or photoelectric switch for anti-collision setting.
  • If the general use distance is near or sometimes use in the adjacent place two of the two electric hoists, you should pay attention the closest position when installing during load and no load. If it is two-speed, it is best to limit the fast speed first, and then stop it (two tap positions)
  • If the lifting item is long, it can be designed to operate with one switch, which can be operated simultaneously or individually.
  • The power supply cable direction: on both ends of the single beam, respectively power supply to the two hoists, or power supply directly by safety slide wire.
