Electric hoist Scheppach HRS400 — 400 kg capacity, 12 m lifting height

Scheppach HRS400 is an electric hoist designed for vertical lifting of equipment, materials and loads up to 400 kg with a maximum lifting height of 12 m. The unit is intended for installation on beams or frames in workshops, construction sites and event setups where compact motorised lifting reduces manual handling and increases operational efficiency. The hoist provides a controlled lift and is suitable for repeated use in medium-duty lifting applications.

Advantages

The electric motor delivers steady lifting power for loads up to 400 kg while maintaining a compact overall footprint for straightforward beam or frame mounting. Motorised operation reduces manual effort and shortens handling time, and the unit’s design supports safer vertical transport compared with manual methods. Construction and service-friendly mounting options allow integration into existing workshop or site structures.

Suitable for

• Raising and lowering equipment and materials in workshops
• Material handling on construction sites for medium-weight loads
• Rigging and stage handling in event installation
• Maintenance tasks requiring repetitive vertical movement of tools or parts

Key specifications

• Maximum lifting capacity: 400 kg
• Maximum lifting height: up to 12 m
• Power type: electric motor (mains-powered)
• Mounting: beam or frame mounting compatible
• Operation: motorised vertical transport with control interface
• Application class: medium-duty lifting for workshops, construction and events

How to use

Install the hoist securely on a compatible beam or frame following mounting instructions and ensuring the support structure is rated above the maximum load. Connect to an appropriate mains power supply with correct voltage and grounding. Attach the load using suitable slings or hooks rated for the load and check that the load is balanced before lifting. Operate the hoist using the control interface to raise or lower the load to the required height, monitoring the operation and stopping immediately if any irregular movement or unusual noise occurs. Regularly inspect suspension points, cables and connections for wear and damage.

Usage recommendations

Use certified lifting accessories and follow local safety regulations. Ensure periodic inspection and maintenance of mechanical and electrical components, and do not exceed the stated 400 kg capacity or 12 m lifting height. For installation onto existing structures, verify load-bearing capacity and consult a structural professional if necessary.
