Robust, reliable and low-maintenance – the JDN UH series

The JDN UH ultra-low pneumatic hoists in flat design are ideal for applications with very low headroom. With load capacities from 1 to 100 t and an operating pressure of 6 bar, they are used wherever compact designs are required. The units are robust, reliable, and low-maintenance. They are suitable for use in explosive environments, resistant to moisture, dust, and temperatures from -20 °C to +70 °C, and feature particularly low air consumption. Versions with enhanced spark protection are available as an option.

Do you have any further questions about the UH series?

What is a JDN UH hoist?

A UH hoist is a pneumatic ultra-low-profile hoist specially designed for lifting and moving loads in extremely low headroom applications.

What load capacities does the UH series cover?

It is suitable for loads from 1 t to 100 t.

For which operating conditions is the series optimised?
  • Ideal for potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX)
  • Resistant to moisture, dust and temperatures between –20 °C and +70 °C
  • Particularly compact design
  • Low air consumption for efficient operation
What safety and performance features are integrated?

The UH series combines reliable functionality with robust engineering. It impresses with ATEX compliance, high resistance to environmental influences, and maximum efficiency due to low air consumption. An optional mounting device is available for easy installation. A manual brake release optionally allows the safe lowering of the load.

For which industries or areas of application is UH particularly suitable?

Where space restrictions are exceptional, e.g. narrow production halls, low roofs or facilities with limited space, the UH series is the ideal lifting solution.
