Rope-driven electric hoists, covering zones 1, 2, 21 & 22 and handling 800 to 80 000 kg

Overview

Market-leading compactness. ATEX-compliant lifting.

Built for hazardous environments, Eurobloc VT Ex is an Ex-proof hoist meeting ATEX requirements for zones 1 and 2 (gas) and zones 21 and 22 (dust), supporting safer lifting wherever explosive atmospheres might occur. In its standard version, Eurobloc VT Ex delivers class-leading compactness with some of the smallest hook approach dimensions around, making better use of building height and work areas without sacrificing productivity. Fixed, normal, double girder, swivel trolley and machinery versions are all offered across the Eurobloc VT Ex range, suiting a wide array of installations.

Innovation

Vertical Lift Innovation, ATEX-ready.

Grown out of Verlinde's expertise and backed by 13 dedicated patents, Eurobloc VT Ex is built to raise the performance bar, including in hazardous environments. It particularly stands out for its near-vertical lifting capability (minimizing lateral hook block displacement) and standard adjustable travel speed, which together enable smoother, more precise load handling. These traits sharpen positioning accuracy, improve operator comfort and provide greater control over movement, while supporting safer operations in potentially explosive atmospheres.
