Safety is the prerequisite for production, so we need to choose different chain hoists according to different working environments. So what kind of chain hoist should we use for lifting operations in a flour mill? The answer is an explosion-proof chain hoist.

 Some people may wonder, "Flour is our food, and a flour mill is not a chemical plant. How can it be considered an explosive environment?" Let's delve deeper into this question.

Firstly, from a chemical perspective, the main components of flour are C, H, and O. These components are inherently flammable, and can quickly ignite once exposed to an open flame.

From a physical perspective, flour is extremely fine particles that float in the air and come into full contact with oxygen. Once an open flame appears, it will be fueled by the surrounding oxygen, and the heat cannot be fully released in a short period of time, resulting in an explosion. This is similar to a gas explosion.

This is the fundamental reason why flour mills are in an explosive environment.

The explosion-proof chain hoist adopts a design with a rough surface layer made of aluminum bronze and beryllium bronze. The collision between metals does not generate mechanical sparks, effectively preventing explosion accidents in flour mills.
