Safety

Urban Construction has been a leader in pioneering safety mechanisms in both personnel and materials hoisting since 1957. Safety has always been our prime focus. All Stros machines have automatic safety devices which operate at any time a hoist exceeds the rated speed or otherwise acts abnormally.  The safety device is designed to prevent the hoist cage from falling in case of a drive unit malfunction. It engages by its pinion with the rack on the mast and is activated if the nominal downward speed of the hoist cage is exceeded. Part of this device is the limit switch which opens the hoist safety circuit. It is possible to adjust the device according to the hoist operation speed and braked mass (the sum of cage mass and load).

Stros hoists meets all requirements for the ISO 9001 Quality Management Standard. And not only do we meet and surpass all safety criteria, our research and development teams in both Canada and the Czech Republic are STILL developing new ideas for safety.
