Two Defined Load and Lift Combinations
MH250 pairs a 250 kg load entry with a 2.5 m standard lift and 2.5 m hand chain length. MH500 pairs 500 kg with a 3 m lift and 3 m hand chain length.
MH250 and MH500 are hand chain hoist models with rated loads of 250 and 500 kg. Their listed weights are 2.6 and 4.8 kg, with standard lifts of 2.5 and 3 m respectively.
MH250 pairs a 250 kg load entry with a 2.5 m standard lift and 2.5 m hand chain length. MH500 pairs 500 kg with a 3 m lift and 3 m hand chain length.
The listed hand forces at rated load are 14.7 daN for MH250 and 18.7 daN for MH500. The corresponding hand chain travel per meter of lift is 33.8 and 42.8 m. Both models use one load-chain fall.

| Specification | MH250 | MH500 |
|---|---|---|
| Rated load (kg) | 250 | 500 |
| Standard lift (m) | 2.5 | 3 |
| Standard hand chain length (m) | 2.5 | 3 |
| Hand force at rated load (daN) | 14.7 | 18.7 |
| Hand chain travel per 1 m lift (m) | 33.8 | 42.8 |
| Load chain (mm) | 3.2 × 9.0 | 4.3 × 12.0 |
| Chain falls | 1 | 1 |
| Weight (kg) | 2.6 | 4.8 |
| Added weight per 1 m extra lift (kg) | 0.4 | 0.9 |
Hand force is expressed in decanewtons (daN). Confirm weight and hand chain length for a lift configuration that differs from the standard entry.
For a maintenance kit or a hoist moved between service locations, compare the listed weight alongside the required load. Define the suspension point and working reach; the two MH models have different standard hand chain lengths.
For a small component assembly station, specify both the load-hook travel and the operator’s position when requesting the unit.
Send MH250 or MH500, required lift, hand chain length, suspension details, and quantity. Include the destination and any connection drawing.
For a product quote, include the load and unit, lift height, quantity, and electrical supply where relevant. For distribution or integration, describe the product range and market you work with. For product information or support, identify the model and describe your question.
