Eurochain VX Ex zone 1, 2 & 21
- Capacity
- 320 to 2500kg



Compact by design. ATEX-ready.
With its compact build, Eurochain VX Ex zone 22 comes in three main configurations: a fixed hoist hung from a suspension lug, a hoist fitted to a push-travel monorail trolley, and a hoist mounted on a motor-driven monorail trolley. Built for straightforward integration across a broad range of demanding production settings, the Eurochain VX EX zone 22 range delivers a complete answer to many exproof lifting needs. A wide-opening suspension lug makes installation easier and improves lifting height, and its smaller dimensions give better hook approach. Because it works with existing trolleys, Eurochain VX Ex zone 22 fits smoothly into both new and existing installations.
ATEX/IECEx-compliant chain hoist for hazardous areas.
Innovation meets hazardous-area lifting in Eurochain VX Ex zone 22, which combines the latest safety regulations with notified body certification for the complete equipment. Built-in inverter travelling comes as standard, delivering smoother, more controlled movements and improved operational efficiency, while every critical component is Ex-proof rated and thoroughly tested to maximize safety where it matters most. Overheating is actively prevented through advanced temperature monitoring, even if the equipment is used beyond rated values, helping ensure safe, reliable performance in demanding conditions. A separated brake torque path from the motor torque path, plus a hoisting brake designed for lifetime durability, further strengthen safety.

Built and certified to the latest safety regulations.
The complete equipment carries Notified Body certification.
Safety is maximized because all required parts are Ex-proof rated and tested.
A wide-opening suspension lug makes installation easier and optimizes lifting height, while remaining compatible with existing trolleys.
Improved resistance to wear in dusty, harsh operating conditions comes from the DAT hoist chain.
No adjustment and barely any maintenance are needed, thanks to the optimized hoist brake.
Main components are easy to reach for maintenance.
Smooth, controlled movement comes from inverter travelling as standard.
A hoisting brake built for lifetime performance.
Smaller dimensions allow for improved hook approach.
In-house development tailored specifically for hoists gives the motor increased robustness.
An optimized gearbox boosts hoist efficiency.
Both the upper and lower lifting hook positions are covered by a robust safety electrical limit switch.
Preventive overheating sensors on the hoisting motor bring improved safety.
Should an overload occur, greater safety for both user and building structure comes from a more precisely adjusted torque limiter.
