Winches series RPE and RPA are designed explicitly for performance, efficiency and safety and offer many advan-tages and options. RPE‘s and RPA‘s extremely compact, practical cube design and universal rope lead-offs allow individual applications in almost any position and make them powerful aids for lifting and pulling loads.

The winches are designed to DIN 15020, classification 1 Bm/M3, safety regulation DGUV Vorschrift 52 (BGV D8) and, of course, the EC machinery directives.

Every winch is factory tested with overload. The units are supplied with a test certificate showing the unit‘s serial-no. and an operating instructions manual which contains a manufacturer‘s declaration.

Features

• Compact dimensions due to internal brake motor.
• Voltage 400 V/230 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz, pretected to IP54, insulation class F.
• Adjustable slip clutch to protect the winch from over-loading standard for model RPE 10-6.
• Spur gear transmission with helical first gear ensures smooth motion. Lubricated by grease and can, there-fore, be used in any position.
• Spring pressure disc brake incorporated in the motor holds the load secure even in the event of a power failure.
• Plain rope drum standard.
• The rope is secured to the drum in a recess so that the rope can be wound onto the drum in several layers without damage.
• Direct control or 42 V low voltage control (incl. push-button with emergency-stop and 2 m control cable).

Options

• Different drum designs, e.g. extended to accommodate longer rope, machined grooves for exact reeling, with separation web and 2nd rope outlet for working with two ropes.
• Geared limit switches to limit rope motion in both direc-tions (in combination with 42 V low voltage control).
• Single-phase A.C. motor 230 V, 50 Hz, 42 V low voltage control.
• Slack rope switch to automatically stop the winch when rope tension eases e.g. when the load touches down (only in combination with low voltage control).
• Frequency converter for stepless speed control.
• Adjustable slip clutch to protect the winch from over-loading for models RPE 2-13, RPE 5-6 and RPE 5-12.
• Special design according to DGUV Vorschrift 17 (BGV C1) for theater stage applications available.
• Radio remote control
• Other operationg voltages
• Stainless brake
