Installation example
See Fig. 8.
Structural requirements
General information
You must abide by the payload limit specified for the hoisting
gear, deflection roller, rigging and anchoring points. See
'4.8 Load limits' on Page 9.
Personnel lifting equipment must be equipped with an independ-
ent secondary brake, which secures the load, for example, on a
safety rope against falling.
If the load cannot be guided by on-site means then a rotation-
resistant wire rope with a swivel hook or a rope swivel must be
used.
Rope, products in contact with the rope and rigging must not be
soiled by heavily soiling building materials such as concrete,
epoxy resin or other adhesive materials. Protect the products
against soiling! Always use brush attachments to clean the wire
rope in an extremely dirty environment.
Anchoring point
The structural equipment to be used for attaching the product
must be designed in compliance with the applicable Directives
and standards (see '9.1 Directives and standards' on Page 10).
The application's overall suspended load must be taken into
account regarding the design of the suspended construction. The
overall suspended load is the actual suspended static load,
which is made up of the payload, the load lifting equipment's own
weight, the additional fittings, the wire ropes and the control and
connection cables.
If necessary, a test report must be included, in which the static
and dynamic tests that were run are described in detail.
Drive path
During lifting processes the drive path must be limited by one or
multiple limit switches, so that the upward and/or downward
movement is stopped.
The operator or the system manufacturer must determine the
design and the fitting position of the limit switches when taking
their risk assessment into account.

Installation manual
G920.3 - 02/2011 EN-7
The gap between the limit switch and the wire rope anchoring or
the protruding components must be chosen so that the machine
can be switched off reliably and in good time. We recommend
that you use a minimum gap (Size a) of between 0.5 to 1.5 m.
See Fig. 12 (example).
The wire rope must be long enough so that the rope end connec-
tion or the load bearing point or the rope end itself cannot be
pulled up to or into the product or the accessory parts.
Operating equipment
The hoist must be protected with an Emergency Off button so
that the hoist can be stopped immediately in dangerous situa-
tions.
It must be possible to position the operating equipment in such a
way that safe operation is always possible regardless of the
movements of the hoist.
In control systems for three-phase operation, equipment must be
provided which shuts down the system in the case of an incorrect
phase sequence, thus preventing a mix-up of the direction of
travel UP/DOWN, which could eventually disable the limit
switches and load limiter switches.

ments). To read the running hours counter: See '15.3 Reading
the running hours counter' on page 17.
4Description
4.1 Functional description
The tirakTM is a hoist for the transport of persons or for persons
and materials. The hoist is operated with an electric motor.
The X-model series hoists can raise and lower as well as pull
and release in the pulling direction of the rope.
The electromagnetic spring-applied brake automatically locks
when the operating control for travelling UP or DOWN is released
or when the power fails. When lowering the load by manually
venting the spring-applied brake a centrifugal brake prevents the
rope from accelerating up to a fast speed.
The hoist's payload can be multiplied according to the block and
tackle principle by reeving the rope. See '4.8 Load limits' on
Page 9.
The hoises are equipped with a mechanical load limiting device.
The load limiting device will active automatically when the over-
load setting is reached. The hoist will be stopped. The maximum
overload that has to be set up can be found in the applicable
directives and standards (See '9.1 Directives and standards' on
Page 10).
The system manufacturer / operator is therefore responsible for
determining and setting up the application dependent maximum
overload.
For further information see '15.5 Adjustment, Adjusting the me-
chanical load limiting device' on Page 18.
Options: Hoists fitted with a hand crank for manual
emergency operation:
Hoists for manual emergency operation with hand crank may
only be operated with the hand crank in emergencies (power
failure, rescue).
The power supply is deactivated when the hand crank is in the
operating position. The load limiting device is inactive. The load
is held by a spring mechanism in the hand crank when the ser-
vice brake is released.

chanical load limiting device' on Page 18.
Spring-applied brake
The electromagnetic spring-applied brake automatically locks
when the operating control for travelling UP or DOWN is released
or when the power fails.
Centrifugal brake
A centrifugal brake on the motor shaft of the hoist ensures that
the load is not lowered too fast when the spring-applied brake on
the hoist’s motor is released manually.
Running hours counter
The running hours can be read from the running hours counter,
in order to determine when the next hoist safety check must be
carried out.
