Beta Max introduces portable hoist mounting package

Beta Max introduces the Gemini Plus and Scaff-Trac portable hoist mounting package that is adaptable to many mast climbing work platforms and a natural enhancement to dealer equipment offerings. Designed to withstand the rigors of the construction industry, the Gemini Plus and Scaff-Trac package is suitable for a variety of applications that require a lightweight, easily handled and efficient housing unit. The Gemini Plus portable hoist boasts a single line lifting capacity of 600 pounds and a double line lifting capacity of 1200 pounds. The overload sensing device ensures worker safety by halting when the maximum payload capacity is reached.

The Gemini Plus comes equipped with a durable electrical controller, a non-rotating cable to help prevent loads from spinning while lifting and lowering objects and an upper limit switch to automatically stop the load when it reaches the top. Its failsafe brakes ensure there will be no free-falling even in the event of power interruption.

The Scaff-Trac mounting option is able to adapt to most pre-set scaffolding by attaching to the scaffolding and hanging under the horizontal members of a frame scaffold using Beta Max saddles and pins. The Scaff-Trac works with frame scaffolds utilizing either 7 or 8 foot cross braces, and allows the load to be rolled back into the scaffold for unloading. The Scaff-Trac allows a cantilever of 3½ feet. Unlimited system lengths are available using add-on 7 foot Scaff-Trac extensions.
