1 Performance
1.1 General
Hoists are designed for lifting and transporting of materials only. Under no conditions or circumstances
are hoists to be used for lifting or transporting of personnel.
Spacemaster® SX wire rope hoists are designed for indoor use where the ambient temperature between
14°F and 104°F (-10°C and 40°C), and the elevation is less than 3300 ft [1000m], and the relative
humidity is less than 90%.
When specially equipped, the hoists may be used for outdoor use or in more extreme ambient
temperature conditions -4°F to 122°F (-20°C and 50°C) or a higher elevation.
The sound intensity level of the hoist in the assumed operating location does not exceed 70dB.

2.1.2 FEM Average Daily Operating Time
The average daily operating time of the hoist can be calculated from the running time of the hoisting
machinery [hours/day].
2 ∗ H ∗ N ∗T
t=
V ∗ 60
♦ H = average hoisting height [m]
♦ N = number of work cycles per hour [cycles/h]
♦ T = daily working time [h]
♦ V = hoisting speed [m/min]
2.1.3 Determining the FEM hoist duty service classification
When the load spectrum and the average daily operating time of the hoist are identified, the duty service
classification of the hoist is obtained from the table below.
*None of the Spacemaster® SX hoists is or can be rated higher than ASME H4 duty service classification.

4 Hoist Characteristics
The hoist characteristics table is a summary of the hoist characteristics, which include:
Height of lift and corresponding drum (length) code
Hoist speeds including alternate speeds for both two-speed and inverter controls
Availability of standard suspension types for each model
Reeving Code
Rope type code for each model
Hoist duty rating
4.1 Height of Lift and Drum Code
The height of lift along with the corresponding drum length code is listed for each basic model. In this
table, height of lift is specified in meters. To convert meters to feet, multiply by 3.281. The drum code is
included in the hoist model code.
4.2 Hoist Speeds
The published hoist speeds are nominal. The actual hoist speed could vary ±15% when comparing hoists
with the same nominal speed but with different reeving, different gearing and/or different motor type.
Always use VFD hoisting controls when better speed accuracy is needed on hoists operating together.
4.3 Suspension Type Code
Suspension types that are available for the hoist model are marked with a code. Special suspensions are
not included here.
Suspension Code in table Description
J Special low headroom hoist
L Low headroom hoist
DH Double girder trolley–high: Height above the rail is higher than the
standard trolley - to get better headroom below the rail.
D0 Double girder trolley–standard
DW Double girder trolley–low: Height above the rail is lower than the standard
trolley – to get better overhead clearance but it increases headroom.
N Normal headroom hoist
F Foot mount
4.4 Reeving Code
Reeving code Description Reeving code Description
021 2 part single 022 2 part double
041 4 part single 042 4 part double
061 6 part single 062 6 part double
081 8 part single 082 8 part double
A2 2 part single Smaller rope diameter; reduced capacity; longer lift; SX4 low headroom hoists only
A4 4 part single Smaller rope diameter; reduced capacity; longer lift; SX4 low headroom hoists only

energized, the brake is a fail-safe system.

If the hoist is operating for long periods in an extreme ambient condition, it is recommended that the
standard, factory-installed lubricant be replaced with an alternate lubricant type to better handle the harsh
condition. An extreme ambient condition is described as ambient temperatures less than minus
13°F/25°C or hotter than 130°F/55°C.

8.4.2 SX2-SX5 Hoists
A rope guide that includes a pressure roller is furnished on the rope drum of the SX2-SX5 hoists. The
rope guide helps keep the wire rope aligned with the grooves of the rope drum while hoisting. The spring-
loaded roller helps keep the wire rope in place when the rope is in a slack condition.

A pressure roller with trip switches can be furnished as an alternate to the rope guide on the SX6 and
SX7 hoists. The roller helps keep the wire rope aligned with the grooves on the rope drum when the rope
is in a slack condition or during hoisting. The switches will trigger if the rope tries to climb out the drum
groove. The roller does not make contact with the wire rope in the normal operating condition.

The IWRC heavy-duty wire rope would replace the steel core wire rope, which comes standard on the SX
hoists with 2-part or 4-part single reeving or with 2-part or 4-part double reeving.
NOTE: SX hoists with 6-part or 8-part single reeving or with 6-part or 8-part double reeving are already
furnished with heavy-duty, IWRC wire rope.
The core classification of the heavy-duty wire rope is independent wire rope core (IWRC). The inner core
strands of the IWRC are independent of the outer strands. The steel core wire rope is an eight-strand
parallel closed rope. The inner and outer strands of the steel core wire rope are closed in one operation.

Limit switch
c_holi2a
Headroom is dimension C and lift is dimension H. Total reach is headroom + lift (C+H).
The function of the phase sequence supervision, S1 is to prevent the bottom block from two blocking
when the power phase is accidentally reversed. Two blocking is the condition under which the bottom
block or load suspended from the hook becomes jammed against the crane structure preventing further
winding up of the hoist drum.
The function of the extreme upper limit of travel, S2 is to stop the lifting when the wire rope has attained
the maximum number of windings on the drum and when the hook block is at its upper limit of travel as
determined by the rated headroom. This switch is an over-travel protection device and it is not to be used
as an automatic stop.
The function of the slow down limit, S3 is to deactivate hoist high speed and to changeover to slow speed
through this zone when nearing the upper limit of travel.
The function of the lower limit of travel, S4 is to stop the lowering when the hook is at its lower limit of
travel as determined by rated lift where no less than two wraps of rope shall remain on each anchorage of
the hoist rope drum.

The standard overload limit device is electro-mechanical and it includes a prearranged stack of Belleville
washers, an adjusting screw and an electrical switch. The slight deflection of the Belleville washers in an
overload condition activates the switch, which prevents further lifting. The overload device is factory set to
cut off at 110% of the hoist rated capacity.
The mechanical overload device (MEC) is not used when the HoistMonitor is furnished with the controls.
The HoistMonitor requires an alternate overload device such as a strain gauge.

14 Trolley
14.1 Special Low Headroom Hoist
The special low headroom hoist is suited for traveling on monorails or on overhead cranes or jib cranes
where the beam flange can be narrow or wide. In addition, the compact design of the special low
headroom hoist minimizes headroom and end approaches. The position of the drum on the special low
headroom hoist is always parallel to the girder.
The trolley flange setting for the special low headroom hoists is adjustable through the standard flange
width range, but requires adjustment to the counterweights as needed.
The ductile iron trolley wheels are crown tread type suitable for flat or tapered beam flange. The drive
wheels are pinion-driven and the gear teeth are integrally cut into the wheel flange.
Trolleys have safety drop lugs and a provision for bumpers. Bumpers are included.

In the standard double girder arrangement both the trolley height (above the rail) and the headroom
(below the rail) are optimized. This arrangement is designated as the medium connection or D0 in the
model code.
Low overhead clearance (DL or DW) double girder trolley arrangements or improved headroom (DH)
double girder trolley arrangements are available as a standard option for some hoist models, which are
listed in the Hoist Characteristics table. For all other hoist models, it is a special option.
The top running double girder trolleys utilize the RT type end trucks - modified for trolley use.

19 GEK Drive
The GEK drive is equipped with a MF06 motor and a GEK gearbox. The MF06 motor is always equipped
with a brake. The GEK drive can be outfitted with either a MF06 inverter-duty motor or a two-speed motor.
The GEK gear is a multistage gear transmission. The output pinion is cut directly into the output shaft.
19.1 MF06 Inverter-duty Motor
The standard motor insulation is class F and the standard degree of protection is IP55. The motor is
outfitted with a Compact brake and with a plug to connect the electrical cable to the motor.
19.2 Compact Brake
The Compact brake is integrated into the design of a MF06 inverter-duty motor. The brake is covered.
The Compact brake is AC operated but without a separate coil to operate the brake. An electromagnetic
force produced from the energized motor stator winding releases the brake. Since the MF06 inverter-duty
motor with the Compact brake is always operated with a ControlMaster series inverter that provides
dynamic braking, the Compact brake is essentially a holding brake. The brake sets when the motor
decelerates to zero and a spring applies a clamping force.

25 Hoist Monitor
The HoistMonitor is an electronic device that can be added to the hoist controls to help assure the safe
operation of the hoist and crane by monitoring selected functions of the hoist. The HoistMonitor has three
programming levels where each level has its own purpose. The three levels are HoistMonitor (basic),
HoistMonitor Select, and HoistMonitor Elite. The HoistMonitor always comes with the display unit (HS17).
The overload protection device always prevents lifting when the measured load exceeds 110 percent of
the rated capacity for a brief period of time and it resets when the measured load decreases below 80
percent of the rated capacity. The overload limit of 110 percent cannot be adjusted for any one of these
overload protection types.
• Motor-Torque Calculation Method
The motor-torque calculation method can only be used with two-speed contactor controls.
It uses voltage and the motor’s current and temperature to calculate the torque, which is
then converted into load information. The current is measured with CT transformers. The
temperature is monitored with NTC thermistors, which are embedded in the motor
windings. And the voltage is measured at the power supply (L1, L2, L3). In addition to
measuring the voltage, the power supply phase is also being checked. The HoistMonitor
will continuously check for the existence of the three power supply phases. This function
makes sure that none of the phases is dropped and the supply phase order is right. The
calculation method only works when the motor is running.
• Load Sensor Type
The load sensor type can be used with inverter or contactor controls. The load sensor
device must be added separately. The sensor can be either a strain gauge (SG) or a Hall
sensor. The Spacemaster® SX hoists uses the SG sensor. The load sensor sends an
analog signal to the HoistMonitor. The signal from the SG sensor is amplified with an
amplifier (ESD 142). The signal from the Hall sensor does not need to be amplified.
NOTE: The strain gauge overload device is calibrated at the factory only when the
HoistMonitor is furnished in the hoist electrical panel and the panel is mounted on the
hoist. Otherwise the strain gauge overload device is not calibrated at the factory and at
start-up the crane builder must calibrate the strain gauge. Calibrating requires test
weights of at least 80 percent of the rated hoist capacity.
25.1.2 Run and Fault Supervision
With the Run and Fault supervision, the HoistMonitor directly receives the lifting and lowering signals from
the controller. Before the hoist motion begins, the HoistMonitor checks for any active faults from those
functions that could be activated. If a fault exists, lifting, lowering or both, depending on the faulted
function, will be disabled until the fault is cleared. If no defaults are detected, lifting or lowering will be
allowed. One of the safety functions of the Run and Fault supervision is to monitor the hoist motor and the
brake. The brake is monitored to make sure the motor does not drive through the brake if it fails to open
and the motor is monitored to make sure the brake does not open if the motor does not start.

25.1.3 Starting and Stopping through Slow Speed
The HoistMonitor’s starting and stopping through slow speed feature is for two-speed contactor hoist
controls. (VFD control already does this function through the inverter.) The hoist motion will always start in
slow speed before allowing fast speed. This prevents “inching” and “jogging”. In addition, the HoistMonitor
will initiate slow speed for a brief moment before the hoist motor brake is closed. This helps prevent
premature brake wear that usually happens when stopping directly from fast speed.
With this level you can more efficiently plan and schedule preventative maintenance and repairs. The
monitoring values can be helpful for troubleshooting. This level can also show you the usage of the hoist.
Each monitoring function is activated and set at the factory according to the specific hoist application
needed.

The HoistMonitor Elite level is only used when two or more hoists (5 maximum) operate together or on
same bridge. Each hoist requires a HoistMonitor.
Each function is activated and set at the factory according to the specific hoist application needed.
Depending on which HoistMonitor functions and which programming levels that were selected, the display
could show information such as:
Hoist Status information: like active fault indication, active warning indication
Tare load: displays only the weight of the load being lifted
Actual load: displays the weight of the load on the hook plus the bottom block
Access Life-time values
Set program or calibration values
Individual hoist load of multiple hoists (only when two or more hoists are used on a crane)
The accuracy of the displayed load value is approximately ±5%. It shall not be used as a calibrated
weighing scale.

29 Hoist Options
29.1 Second Hoist Brake – BRA01
A second hoist brake can be added to the SX2, SX3, SX4 or SX5 hoists for additional safety. The hoist
motor brake and the second hoist brake are connected to the same rectifier. This connection allows both
brakes to open simultaneously, but the closing of the second hoist brake is momentarily delayed to avoid
rapid stop and excessive brake wear. With this momentary delay the second brake acts as a holding
brake. The size of the second brake is similar to the hoist motor brake.
The second hoist brake has an IP55 protection rating. The IP66 hoist motor protection option also
upgrades the protection rating of the second hoist brake if it is added.
The drum brake consists of two separate brakes to do different functions. One is as a holding brake and
the other is as an over-speed brake. The hoist can be outfitted with either the holding brake or the over-
speed brake. Or the hoist can be outfitted with both drum brakes for holding and for over-speed. A
solenoid operates the holding brake, which sets and then holds the load when lifting or lowering has
stopped. The over-speed brake is strictly mechanical and has a mechanism that will set the brake if the
drum rotation is over-speeding by 25%. The over-speed brake will bring the load to a smooth stop if it
happens to activate.

NOTE: Motor with external fan increases the overall length of the motor by 4” [100mm].
A bypass switch to override the slack rope protection is highly recommended. The bypass switch can be
mounted on the pendant or the bridge panel. The bypass switch on the pendant would allow the operator
to override the slack rope protection for operational purposes. The bypass switch on the control enclosure
would allow only maintenance personnel to override the slack rope protection.
NOTE: This option does not apply to omitting the hoist inverter controls. It is highly recommended to use
R&M’s ControlMaster variable frequency drives with R&M’s hoisting and traveling motors.

The function of the phase sequence supervision, S1 is to prevent the bottom block from two blocking
when the power phase is accidentally reversed. Two blocking is the condition under which the bottom
block or load suspended from the hook becomes jammed against the crane structure preventing further
winding up of the hoist drum.
The function of the extreme upper limit of travel, S2 is to stop the lifting when the wire rope has attained
the maximum number of windings on the drum and when the hook block is at its upper limit of travel as
determined by the rated headroom. This switch is an over-travel protection device and it is not to be used
as an automatic stop.
The function of the lower limit of travel, S4 is to stop the lowering when the hook is at its lower limit of
travel as determined by rated lift where no less than two wraps of rope shall remain on each anchorage of
the hoist rope drum.

The function of the upper limit of travel, S1 is to stop the lifting when the wire rope has attained the
maximum number of windings on the drum and when the hook block is at its upper limit of travel as
determined by the rated headroom. This switch is an over-travel protection device and it is not to be used
as an automatic stop.
The function of the upper slow down limit, S2 is to deactivate hoist high speed and to changeover to slow
speed through this zone when nearing the upper limit of travel.
The extra level limit of travel, S3 is to give the user an extra limit to set and wire according to user’s
application. Although this switch is not wired in the hoist circuit, it is wired to terminals for easy access.
The function of the lower limit of travel, S4 is to stop the lowering when the hook is at its lower limit of
travel as determined by rated lift where no less than two wraps of rope shall remain on each anchorage of
the hoist rope drum.

Automatic Reset
With the automatic reset, only the UP circuit cuts out if the limit switch is tripped. The limit switch resets
when the operator gives the DOWN command to lower the hook block off the trip lever.
Manual Reset
With the manual reset, both the UP and DOWN hoist circuits are cut off if the limit switch is tripped. To
resume normal operation of the hoist, maintenance personnel must manually reset the limit switch.
NOTE: Headroom increases about 5” [125mm] from standard when hoist is equipped with a hook block
operated limit switch.
NOTE: The one-step (slowdown) trolley traveling limit switch cannot be used with the CMXC007 inverter
and stepless (EP) speed control. The CMXC007 inverter can be used with the one-step (slowdown) limit
switch when the speed control is multi-step (MS).
NOTE: This feature is not available for the SX2 2-part single (021) bottom block.
Headroom (C dimension) increases by 3” [75mm] from standard.

29.29 Standby Heater for Motors – MOT03 (hoist) MOT04 (trolley) MOT16 (bridge)
Heaters are furnished for the prevention of condensation of moisture on the windings inside a motor
during prolonged periods of idleness. Heaters are furnished for operation on single-phase current only.
29.33 Trolley Rail Gauge, One Step Smaller from Standard – PRI06
This option is for decreasing the standard trolley gauge in one-step increments for the standard double
girder hoist. Standard gauges for trolleys are indicated on the hoist price pages, the hoist outline drawings
or in QuoteMasterTM.

29.34 Trolley Rail Gauge, One Step Larger from Standard – PRI07
This option is for increasing the standard trolley gauge in one-step increments up to four steps maximum
for standard double girder hoists. Standard trolley gauges or trolley gauge ranges are indicated on the
hoist outline drawings or the hoist price pages. The standard increments are tabled below.
In normal operations, lifting or lowering for all the hoists will stop when the HoistMonitior unit in any one of
the hoists detects a fault or a tripped hoist limit switch. This prevents the load from tilting.
The leveling of the hooks is typically done with the upper limit switch but it can be set up to be done with
the lower limit switch. The leveling function allows each hoist to continue hoisting close to the upper limit
switch until the hooks are leveled.
30 Hoist Speeds
See the Hoist Characteristics section for alternate hoist speeds.
NOTE: The published hoist speeds are nominal. The actual hoist speed could vary ±15% when
comparing hoists with the same nominal speed but with different reeving, different gearing and/or different
motor type. Always use VFD hoisting controls when better speed accuracy is needed on hoists operating
together.

36 Plug Connectors
36.1 Control Plugs
A plug is furnished on the end of the pendant cable whether the pendant is for a crane or a monorail hoist
- except when the pendant is mounted directly to the SX1 hoist. In this case the pendant cable is
hardwired. Note: the inverter’s pulse sensor cable and the HoistMonitor’s CAN-bus cable when supplied
are hardwired connected.
36.2 Power Plugs
A plug for the power supply cable is usually supplied on the standard bridge panel if the hoist motor type
is PX but not on the SX1 hoist panel.
Plugs for the power supply cables are usually supplied on the standard hoist and bridge panels if the hoist
motor type is P1, regardless of span and voltage.
Plugs for the power supply cables are usually supplied on the standard hoist and bridge panels if the hoist
motor type is P2 or P3 except when the span is over 65 ft [19.8 m] and the power supply is 208 or 230
volts.
Plugs for the power supply cables are usually supplied on the standard hoist and bridge panels if the hoist
motor type is P4 or P5 and power supply is greater than 230 volts. Plugs for the power supply cables are
not supplied on any of the panels when the power supply is 208 or 230 volts.
Plugs for the power supply cables are usually supplied on the standard hoist and bridge panels if the hoist
motor type is P6 or P7 and the crane span is less than or equal to 55 feet [17m] and the power supply is
greater than 230 volts. Plugs for the power supply cables are not supplied on any of the panels when the
power supply is 208 or 230 volts.
Plugs for the power supply cables are not supplied on the hoist and bridge panels when the hoist motor
type is P8 or when two hoists motors are used (2 x P6, 2 x P7)

Plug kits are available for stainless steel enclosures with an IP-55 rating. The same plug kit rules for the
standard enclosures apply to the stainless steel enclosures with the IP-55 rating.
37 Bridge Girder
The type of bridge girders that is suggested from the QuoteMasterTM program is either profile or box
girder. Profile girders are commercial beams like Wide Flange. Box girders are the built-up beams from
plates. The suggested bridge girder is engineered to meet both the span and capacity specified for the
crane application, where the maximum allowable deflection does not exceed 1/888 of the span.
NOTE: The adequacy of the bridge girder and the joint connection for the crane application is the
responsibility of the crane builder and should be verified or determined by qualified personnel.
The under-hung trolley is adjusted for the flange of the suggested bridge beam or a predetermined flange
width.
38 Tandem Hoists
Tandem hoists are defined as two identical hoist models, which have similar speeds, reeving, gear and
motor types, and equal capacity, operating in tandem or individually.
The use of a three-position selector switch will allow the operator to operate hoist 1 or hoist 2
independently or together in tandem. The two-position selector switch will allow the operator to operate
hoist 1 or hoist 2 independently, but not together in tandem.
Adding the HoistMonitor Elite to the controls of the tandem hoists should also be considered. Learn more
about the HoistMonitor Elite features and the options it supports in the Hoist Monitor section.
NOTE: The published hoist speeds are nominal. The actual hoist speed could vary ±15% when
comparing hoists with the same nominal speed but with different reeving, different gearing and/or different
motor type. Always use VFD hoisting controls when better speed accuracy is needed on hoists operating
together.

39 Crane Options
39.1 Anti-collision Device for Crane – OTH08
The anti-collision device prevents cranes on the same runway from approaching each other at a high rate
of speed.
The anti-collision device consists of a sensor and reflector. The sensor is wired to the bridge controls. The
reflector is placed on the opposite crane directly across from the sensor. The maximum sensing distance
is 20 feet [6m]. The maximum traveling speed is 105 fpm [32 m/min].
When selecting the anti-collision device for a crane kit, it is not essential to specify the actual location of
the device on the crane. But it is important to specify whether the crane gets the device on one side or
both sides. When there are two cranes on the runway, a sensor and a reflector is needed on one side of
each crane. When there are three or more cranes on the runway, a sensor and a reflector is needed on
both sides of the middle crane(s), and a sensor and a reflector is needed on one side of the end cranes.
There are three operation modes to choose from when specifying the anti-collision device. The modes
are slow down, slow down + stop, or stop. In the slow down mode, once crane is within the sensing
distance, the bridge can only be driven in slow speed. In the slow down + stop mode, once the crane is
within the sensing distance, the bridge drive is forced to slow speed and then the crane is stopped. In the
stop mode, once crane is within the sensing distance, the crane is stopped regardless how fast the crane
is traveling.
There are two types of sensor to choose from when specifying the anti-collision device. The types are
photo detector and ultrasonic. The photo detector sensor is not recommended for outdoor use or
dusty environments because the sunlight or dust decreases the sensing distance. Choose the
ultrasonic sensor when the crane is for outdoor use or used in dusty environments.

Note: Hoist headroom increases 5” to 6” [125 mm to 150 mm] from standard when the hoist is equipped
with the block-operated limit.
39.10 Limit Switch, Trolley Travel, Trips all Trolleys on Bridge – ELE63
When the traveling limit switch on any one of the trolleys on the same bridge is activated, the trolleys
either slow down or stop depending on the setting. This feature is necessary in common drive
applications.
