Wire Rope Hoist NOVA – Power House Hydroelectric Power Plant – 1×50t

In a hydroelectric power plant, a powerful NOVA rope hoist is used for lifting and positioning a large-volume unit in the powerhouse. The hoist plays a central role in the assembly, inspection, and maintenance of vertical turbines and generators, which are among the heaviest components of such a facility.

The hydroelectric industry places particularly high demands on precision, load capacity, and operational safety – especially in confined spaces and sensitive technical infrastructure. The rope hoist with a special girder allows for controlled, symmetrical lifting of such components without the risk of damage to bearings, housings, or shafts. Even during extended downtimes, the equipment remains reliably ready for use – a crucial advantage for operators who rely on long plant lifetimes.

This lifting solution ensures high work safety, efficient maintenance processes, and significantly contributes to plant availability and supply security in the field of renewable energy.

ELECTRIC WIRE ROPE HOIST
NOVA1 rope

NOVA1 rope is designed for loads up to 80 t. The wire rope hoists feature optimal space utilization and maximum efficiency. NOVA1 rope is extremely flexible and easy to adapt to the individual requirements of your customers.

Intelligent monitoring and optimized control

Conveniently expand NOVA1 rope with electronic monitoring and control features (Crane Intelligence) to optimize monitoring processes.
