Technical description
Hoist denomination
The capacity of the hoist as well as the cage length can be taken
from the hoist denomination printed on the sign in the cage.
Multiply the first two figures of the denomination by 100 and
you have the load capacity in kg. Multiply the figures after the
slanting line by 100 and you have the cage length in mm.
Example:
Scando 20/30. Load capacity 20 x 100 = 2000 kg (4400 lbs).
Cage length 30 x 100 = 3000 mm or 3.0 meter (9-10 1/8).
A C after the figures indicates that the hoist is provided with a
Counterweight.
The letters FC indicates that the hoist operates with Variable
Frequency Converter (VFC) and is of type high speed.
If the hoist is provided with two cages, this is indicated by the
Roman numeral II after SCANDO or SCANDO SUPER.
Foundation
The foundation is made of a reinforced concrete slab with cast
in place brackets for the base frame of the mast. The foundation
is cast on - site in accordance with instructions given under
Preparations before Installation and Foundation in this
Manual.
Ground enclosure
The foundation and bottom landing are fully enclosed by wire
mesh panels attached to base frame of the mast.
A ground enclosure for a single cage hoist can be transformed into
a twin cage enclosure by adding panels. The enclosure is supplied
with a mechanically and/or electrically interlocked, vertical
sliding gate placed on the entrance side of the ground enclosure.
Mechanically interlocked means that the gate is locked
mechanically and cannot be opened unless the cage is at the
base landing.
Electrically interlocked means that the cage will stop at once,
if a gate is opened, or will not start unless the gate is closed.
ALIMAK 33539 -1/04
A2
Hoist mast
The hoist mast consists of lattice work of steel tubes and angle
profiles in sections of 1508 mm (4-11 3/8) length. Each
section is provided with one or two precision-cut racks. The
sections are bolted together with bolts and nuts.
Mast sections are available in two main versions: with one rack
for single cage models or with two racks with or without welded
counterweight guide rails for twin cage models. A mast section
for a single cage hoist can be transformed into a twin cage mast
section by adding a rack.
a2
The mast is attached to the stucture and stabilized with special

telescoping tie-in assemblies. Mast ties are available in several
sizes and adjustable within the minimum and maximum specifications. The mast tie allows for a maximum inclination of 8
from the horizontal.
The hoist mast is provided with top and bottom limit cams. These
cams actuate limit swiches attached to the hoist cage, causing it
to stop automatically. There is also a final limit switch which
cuts off the main power supply, if the normal limit switches fail
to function.
Counterweight equipment
A hoist provided with a counterweight equipment has a C
designated after the figures in the hoist denomination. The
counterweight equipment is mainly used to increase the capacity
of the hoist without an increase in power consumtion (compare
erection load capacity and pay-load capacity in Technical Data).
a3
The counterweight runs on the rear corner tubes of the mast or,
on twin cage hoists, on a special guide rail welded or bolted to
the side of the mast. The counterweight wire ropes is directed
by means of sheaves on top of the mast (cathead) to a wire rope
equalizer with a slack rope switch on the cage roof, which stops
the hoist if the wire ropes become unbalanced or if the counterweight hangs up.
ALIMAK 31777 -1/03
A3
Cage
The cage walls are constructed partially or entirely of wire mesh
to allow light in and thereby give the cage operator a clear view
of the hoistway.
The roof and floor are constructed of plastic coated, fibreglass
reinforced high density plywood with a non-skid surface. Floor,
roof and partial side walls are also available in lightweight
aluminium checkered plate.
The cage is guided on the mast by individually adjusted ball
bearing guide rollers. Safety hooks are attached to the main
frame of the cage under the lowest driving pinion to ensure that
the cage is unable to climb off the top of the mast or that the
pinion disengages from the rack should a roller fall off.
The cage has mechanically and/or electrically interlocked entrance
and exit gates. The exit gate is usually made in two parts whereas
the enterance gate is one part. (The entrance gate is the one
facing the gate of the ground enclosure).
a 23
As the cage roof serves as working platform during erection and

as a maintenance inspection platform it is provided with a safety
railing. There is also a trap door in the roof and a ladder in the
cage so that one can easily get up on the roof.
Hoist machinery
The hoist machinery unit is attached to the main frame of the
cage on vibration dampening brackets. The cage climbs by
means of pinions in engagement with the rack. The pinions are
fitted to worm-/alt. bevel gears, driven by electric motors.
a 25
a 24
Worm gear machinery
Bevel gear machinery
SCANDO-hoists with electric motor by one, two or three direct

starting squirrel cage induction motors, equipped with self
adjusting electromagnetic disc brakes.
FC-hoist with Variable Frequency Converter VFC, are driven
by two or three squirrel cage induction motors equipped with
electromagnetic disc brakes.
ALIMAK 33540 -1/04
A4
The use of VFC makes it possible to run electric motors at a

supersynchronous or subsynchronous speed. The speed of the
hoist is straight related to the frequence which is set/or initiated
by the control stick. Frequence can be varied from 0 to
maximum frequence 60 87 Hz depending of type of motor.
Due to the frequency modulation at start from 0 to 87 Hz, the
starting current will be as low as 1.2x the rated motor current.
With retaradation ramps at the landings and the possibility of
"crawling", stop at correct position in level with the landing is
obtained.
When stopping the VFC will steplessly decrease the frequency
down to 0 Hz. That means that the brake only will be used as a
parking brake, and therefore the brake wear and maintenance is
minimized.
Landing equipment
The landing equipment consists of mechanically and/or electrically interlocked wire mesh gates or bars at the landings,
preventing admittance to the hoistway.
The landings are mounted on vertical pipes parallel to the mast
from the ground enclosure to the top landing. The landing equipment can also be attached by connecting them to special brackets
at the landings, in openings, on slabs, on projections or facade
scaffolding. The electric interlocking of the landing equipment
is connected to the control system of the hoist (stop circuit).

Cable guiding systems

Cable basket: The hoist trailing power cable is guided by U-shaped
guide members with plate springs. During operation of the hoist
the power cable coils itself out and into a cable basket located in
the ground enclosure at the bottom landing.

Cable trolley
The trailing power cable from the junction box to the cable
support on the cage is kept under tension by a cable trolley
located under the cage and travelling on the same guide members
as the cage.
This method described above is also used for hoist installations
where strong winds, low temperatures, etc. can be expected.
Electric equipment
a 11
The electric equipment can be of several different kinds depending on local requirements and regulations. The equipment is
also designed and chosen to conform to operating conditions on
construction sites.
The components have been thoroughly tested and conform to
one or several of the following international/national standards:
IEC, CEE, EN, DIN, UL, CSA and SS.
In order to meet the requirements of the customer and conform
to the applicable hoist regulation, and code, the electrical equipment is designed specifically for each order.
Necessary documents, such as wiring diagrams, circuit diagrams
and parts lists, are placed inside the document box in the cage.

Control systems
Operator control system
The hoist can be operated from inside the hoist cage only. This
is done by means of:
a push button station with push buttons Up/Stop/Down, or . . .
. . . a lever controller Up/Stop/Down.
The control lever has spring return to the stopp position (DeadMan-Handle).
As a low-cost option the system can be provided with an electronic proximity swicht, ALIMAK Automatic Stop Equipment.
Note that SCANDO SUPER FC is designed for operator
control only.
Semi-automatic control system

The hoist can be operated from inside the cage by means of
push buttons Up/Stop/Down/Stop Next Landing. By pressing a
button for Up or Down, the cage starts travelling in the chosen
direction. When the cage is approaching the desired landing, the
button marked with symbol for Stop Next Landing is pressed.
The cage will then stop automatically at that landing.
The landings can be provided with a push button box with
similar buttons and functions as in the cage.

Optional equipments
Automatic Stop Equipment
Stopping the cage at right level at the landings can be difficult
for people using the hoist infrequently. With Automatic Stop
Equipment this very operation is automated.
The equipment consists of auxiliary relays and a proximity switch
on the cage. The switch is activated by steel plates attached to
the mast at the landing.
a 15
a 14
By pressing the button for the function Stop Next Landing

before approaching desired landing the cage automatically stops
at level at that landing.
Tone Frequency Equipment

ALIMAK hard wire Tone Frequency Equipment (TFE) for Signal
Transmission is used for hoist installations where it is desirable
to avoid a separate trailing control cable between base and cage.
The control signals are instead transferred along the ground wire
of the trailing power cable.
The Tone Frequency Equipment consists of two units one
transmitter and one receiver. The transmitter is located in the
base panel and the receiver in the main panel in the cage.
The transmitter, in the base panel, converts the incomming
impulses from the landing push buttons into three different
signals, A, B and C, corresponding to Up, Stop and Down.
These signals are then transferred along the trailing power cable
up to the cage. The receiver in the cage panel picks up the
signals and actuates output relays corrensponding to the initial
signal A, B or C.
Each individual signal consists of a 3-tone sequencial code system
which gives extreme insensibility to false or disturbing signals.
a 16
ALIMAK 31782 -1/03
A8
Aliphone Communication System

Aliphone Communication System with a combined transmitter/
reciver uses the power supply cable for its signals, thereby
eliminating a separate communication cable. The signals are
transmitted by means of FM technique.
The equipment provides two-way communication between the
hoist cage and base landing. Communication to the other
landings is obtained by adding optional equipment to the base
station. The equipment can also be connected to a Paging System.
(Announcing Speaker System).
a 17
ALIMAK 31783 -1/03
Safety equipment
Automatic stop at top and bottom landings
At top and bottom landings, limit cams are mounted on the mast.
These cams activate the limit switches, which automatically
stops the hoist. The functions for the Up and Down limit
switches are backed up by a final limit switch with its own cams
on the mast at top and bottom landings. This switch cuts the
power supply on all phases, and stops the cage should the
normal limit switch not function.
Below the bottom landing level, close to the hoist mast, buffer
springs are located for the cage and counterweight. These buffers
are designed to stop a descending cage or counterweight beyond
its normal limit of travel.

Safety device
The hoist has a unique safety device which smoothly stops the
cage on the mast should normal driving speed be exceeded.
The safety device has a shaft with a centrifugal
weight and a pinion constantly engaged
with the rack on the hoist mast. When
the centrifugal weight actuates, the
brake cone is screwed in against a
brake lining inside the safety
housing. The hoist is brought to a
smooth stop, and simutaneously the
power to the drive motors is cut off.
a 21
Phase failure relay

The electric equipment is protected by a phase failure relay,
which means that the hoist can only be driven when correct
phase sequence is connected.
Cage roof safety railing
Emergency stop wire
Optional overrun protection device

A spring loaded roller fixed at the top of the cage runs on the
rear face of the rack. The roller is fixed to a crank, which in turn
is connected to an emergency stop wire, controlling the power
supply cut-off switch the standard final limit switch located
in the cage.
Cage roof toe board
When the top of the cage reaches the top mast section, the roller
runs off the rack, and lifts the stop wire, which isolates the final
limit switch. In effect when the roller runs off the rack, the main
supply is cut off and the cage stops immediately.
Rack

Foundation
National hoist regulations indicate whether the hoist is to be
installed on a concrete slab or if a foundation pit is required.
Concrete slab
A concrete slab is to be made according to the following instructions, and according to the actual model of hoist.
It is important that the mounting holes of the foundation frame
be brought level with the completed concrete surface, and that
the concrete is vibrated thoroughly especially around the
foundation frame.
It is also important that the finished surface is plane and
horizontal.
g1
Foundation frame:
part no. 9025 751-000 for mast
section c/c 650 x 650
(2-1 5/8 x 2-1 5/8)
part no. 9021 586-000 for mast
section c/c 650 x 900
(2-1 5/8 x 2-11 7/16)
The foundation may be made in any of the following ways,

depending upon the finished concrete level compared with the
ground level.

Extra reinforcement of concrete slab

for hoist with landing equipment on vertical pipe support
The concrete slab must have additional reinforcement in order to
carry the extra load due to the vertical pipes, landing equipment
and the extra load, due to the landings (people, buggies, materials,
etc).
The extra reinforcement is only necessary within the areas shown
in the picture below. The layer of reinforcement should be placed

Components for attachments of enclosure

Use castings delivered with the hoist.
For the attachment of the enclosure on the foundation we
recommend the use of expansion bolts.
Please note that these items are not furnished with the hoist.
When extra safety space is required under the hoist

cage at the bottom landing
Some local hoist regulations require an extra safety space under
the hoist cage bottom landing. The same concrete slab as before
can be used provided that the enclosure front is raised according
to local hoist regulations.

Concrete slab without foundation frame

In order to use a concrete slab without a foundation frame, the
following requirements must be met:
The procedures/specifications for preparing the concrete slab
will be the same ones used for preparing a concrete slab with
a foundation frame.
The base frame must be attached with expansion bolts that can
each withstand a pullout force of at least 40 kN (9000 lbf).
The expansion bolts should be mounted in the holes normally
used for attaching the base frame to the foundation frame.
Installation is prohibited when wind speeds are in excess of
15 m/sec. (33 mph).
The maximum height allowed for the first tie is 6 meters
(20 ft).
The type of installation must be approved by the local governing authorities.
Transportable foundation
In order to use a transportable steel foundation, the following
requirements must be met:
The steel foundation must confirm to all of Alimaks specifications. (these can be ordered separately from an Alimak
representative).
The type of installation must be approved by the local governing authorities.

Load on foundation
The static load on the foundation consists of:
The payload of the hoist (x 2 for twin-cage hoist).
Base unit dead weight. [ For twin-cage hoist, add approx 2000
kg (4400 lbs.)].
Counterweight if used (x 2 for twin-cage hoist).
Hoist mast dead weight.
Add 10% of the total for mast ties, power cable, and cable
guiding devices.
Add a further 25% of the total for vertical pipe support, if used.
The dynamic load on the foundation consists of:
100% impact (or according to local regulations) on the payload and 2/3 of the base unit dead weight.

Ground pressure
Max. ground pressure under the concrete slabs is 0.15 MPa
(21.75 psi) provided that the foundation has been reinforced and
built up according to the given instructions.
Should the ground be able to stand higher pressures, it is possible
increase the load on the foundation. Please contact ALIMAK
for information.
Examples of acceptable ground pressure according to SBN 1975
(Swedish Building Norms):
Moraine = 0.4 1.0 MPa (58 145 psi)
Fine sand =
0.2 MPa (
29 psi)
The ground pressure due to the installation is calculated

according to the following formula:
Pv is the sum of the static and the dynamic load and the dead
weight of foundation in kN. Estimate approx. 24 kN/m3 for
concrete.
See Concrete slab dimensions for D, W and concrete volume.
D x W is the concrete slab surface in m2.

Projecting hoist mast

Generally following selection process is used:
1. Type of mast section
2. Number of mast sections
3. Type of mast tie

4. Number of mast ties
Hoist model i.e. load capacity and speed are assumed to be

known.
1. Type of mast section
Determined by the capacity of the hoist and whether the mast
will be provided with one or two cages as well as the lifting
height. See further information on following pages.
2. Number of mast sections
Lh
Determined by required lifting height (Lh) = 1.508 meter and

the necessary number of extra mast section depending on:
Whether the hoist will be installed on a concrete slab at ground
level.
without counterweight equipment = 3 extra mast sections.
and machinery located in cage.
with counterweight equipment
or with machinery located above
cage roof (TD).
= 4 extra mast sections.
Whether the hoist will be installed with an extended enclosure

or with a foundation pit below ground level.
without counterweight equipment = 4 extra mast sections.
and machinery located in cage.
with counterweight equipment
or with machinery located above
cage roof.
= 5 extra mast sections.

3. Type of mast ties

Determined by whether there will be a single or twin cage hoist
and whether counterweight equipment and/or vertical pipes will
be used. See table below

4. Numbers of mast ties

Determined by tie distance and overhang at various maximum
lifting height. See tables in the end of chapter.
Mast sections
With the exception of one or two racks, with or without counterweight guide rail, there are mainly three different types of mast
sections available:
Standard mast with tube dimension 76 x 4.2 mm.
(outer diameter x thickness)
Reinforced mast with tube dimension: 76 x 6.3 mm.
Reinforced mast with tube dimension: 76 x 8.0 mm.
a2
Suitable mast section dimension for each hoist in question and

actual lifting height is given in the tables at the end of this
chapter.
Mast sections of different tube dimension can be combined

As can be seen from the following tables this is only necessary
at extremly high lifting heights.
In such cases turn to Alimak Calculation Department who can
optimise the installation so that as few reinforced mast sections
as possible need to be used.
ALIMAK 31812 -1/04

Identification
In order to easily identify the mast sections with different tube
dimensions, the mast sections are colour-marked and weld marked
corresponding to wall thickness as indicated below.

between mast sections with different tube
thicknesses.
3. Reinforced mast sections must always be
placed at the bottom of a mast installation.

Mast ties
The design of the hoist determines the type of mast ties to be used.
Tie type I
The tie is intended only for single cage hoists, with or without
counterweight.
The tie is available with a main section with two different
extension pipe sets. The length of the tie L and the width B are
steplessly variable within the ranges (min. max.) shown by the
figures on following page.
h3
Tie type II
The tie is intended both for single and for twin cage hoists with
or without counterweight. The hoist must, however, be equipped
with vertical pipes for the landing equipment.
The tie is available with two main sections for 3.0, 3.2 and 3.7 m
hoist cage as well as with two different additional parts.
h4
The length of tie L and the width B are stepplessly variable

within the ranges (min. max.) shown by the figures on following page.
Tie type III
The tie is intended both for single and twin cage hoists with or
without counterweight. The hoist must not be equipped with
vertical pipes for landing equipment.
h5
The tie is available with a main section with four different additional parts. The length of the tie L is steplessly variable within
the range (max. min.) shown by the figures on following page.
The width for this type of mast is fixed.
Tie type IV
The tie is intended for both single and twin cage hoists wihtout
counterweight. The hoist should not be equipped with vertical
pipes for landing equipment.
The tie is available with three different main sections. The length
of the tie L is variable in steps of 35 mm within the range (max.
min.) shown by the figures on following page. The width for
this type of mast is fixed.
h6
Note that maximum tie distance and overhang for this type of
mast tie is shorter compared to the mast ties I, II and III, at
corresponding mast height.

Reaction force on the wall

Tie type I and II
If the ties are installed at the prescribed distances and with the
overhang specified in following tables 1, 2, 3 and 4, and with
B-measurement according to the diagram, the force on the wall
may be obtained from the following formula:
P = L x 30000 Newton [x 0.2248 = lbf (pound force)]
B
Tie type III
Max. force on the wall may be obtained from the following
formula:
P = L x 30000 Newton
B
Tie type IV
Max. force on the wall may be obtained from the following
formula:
P = L x 18000 Newton
B
This force P is a result of max. wind force (as defined by regulations in resp. country), the tie distance and overhang as per table.
The force of F, parallel to the building for mast ties type I, II
and III, is = 30000 Newton at maximum overhang and tie
distance. For mast tie type IV, F = 18000 Newton.

If the force on the wall should prove to be excessive contact

the nearest ALIMAK representative and ask for his advice.
ALIMAK 31818 -1/03
Example: Ties for a hoist type SCANDO I 25/32 C provided

with vertical pipes shall be chosen as follows.
The text Mast ties indicates that ties type I or II
may be used. Let us choose type II.
The dimension of the hoist cage SCANDO 25/32 C
(cage length 3.2 m) indicates the choice of main
frame to type 0398 678-175.
Due to the configuration of the structure, the distance
between centerline of the mast and the wall is fixed
at 3100 mm (122.05).
The dimension 3100 mm (122.05), shown at the Laxes, in the graph on a previous page, indicates the
additional part 0498 679-165 shall be used and that
its B-dimension shall be between 1500 mm (59.05)
and 2060 mm (81.10).
Depending on the choice of B-dim., the reaction
force P on the face of the building can be calculated
by the following formula:
P = L x 30000 Newton (x 0.2248 = lbf)
B
For
B = 1500 mm
P = 3100 x 30000 = 62000 Newton
1500
For
B = 2060 mm
P = 3100 x 30000 = 45146 Newton
2060
As shown by this example, the reaction force P on
the face of the building is reduced when the B-dim.
is increased.
The reaction forces can be reduced by shortening the overhang

see next page.
ALIMAK 31819 -1/03
H9
H 10
The reaction forces can be reduced by sortering the overhang

The following diagram shows roughly how the reaction forces P
and F can be decreased by reducing the overhang with tie
distances remaining the same.
Example: As can be seen from the diagram below the reaction
forces P and F, previous page can be decreased from
100 to 78% if the overhang is shortened from 12 to
9 meter.

Attachment of ties
Wall bracket
The ties are fixed to the building by bolts, washers and nuts into
the holes which are drilled at the installation or to embedment
sets or other approved suitable wall bracket attachment.
h 16
Reinforcement
Cast in place inserts must be installed prior to the hoist installation in order for the concrete to cure properly and attend its
proper strength. Concrete must be of suitable strength for calculated loads. (See Reaction force on wall). Care must be taken
in locating the inserts at their proper location (See type of tie).
If other types of bolt is used like a chemical cast in bolt or
expansion bolt, it is important to choose an approved type which
can take the calculated force in this application with a satisfactory safety factor.
Complete specifications for this kind of bolts can be given by
manufacturer and approval for its use in this application by local
authority.

NOTE! Complete landing equipment every 3 m.

Landing run-offs own weight = max. 150 kg.
The allowable payload per landing runoff may not exceed the hoists maximum
capacity.
Example:
For a single cage hoist type Scando I
20/32 (cage dimension 1.5 x 3.2) the
maximum allowable payload for all the
landing run-offs combined is 4800 kg at
a 50 m lifting height.

mast at actual mast height.
The values for tie distances vary according to certain regulations
and depend mainly on wind speed. Such regulation differ by
country.
Note that the values in the table for maximum mast height
only apply to mast and mast tie. The capacity of the equipment
can be reduced by other factors such as voltage drop of the elcable, the power consumption of the motor(s) etc. (See data
sheet for each hoist model).
IMPORTANT: 1. Following tables are applicable to the new
mast type manufactured after January
1987.
When combining the old type mast
with the new type mast, the free top
distance and the tie distance, shall be
determined by using the values that are
applicable to the old type mast.
2. Where max. allowable tie distance exceeds max. allowable overhang, erection/
dismounting must be made by means of a
construction tower crane or similar lifting
device.

3. Placing of landings must be avoided at

max. overhang and right between tie with
long distances due to the deflection of the
mast. If this is not possible an extra tie
should be installed at the landing.

Preparations before installation

To install your rack and pinion hoist/lift as efficiently and safely
as possible and at lowest cost, it is important that the following
preparations are made before erector is called and installation is
started.
STOP
Permission
Make sure the chosen erection place meets the requirements set
out by local authorities for safety and inspection and that their
permission, if necessary, to install the hoist/lift has been obtained.
i1
Erection place
Prepare the installation site so that electric power, light, lifting
equipment and tools are available and there is adequate access
for the lift transporter beware of overhead obstructions.
If possible, prepare the casting of ties and landing accessories
such as supports, bridges and railing. Suitable places for
attaching the ties are vaults, balconies or other concrete or steel
structures.
Remember that these structures must be strong enough to absorb
the reaction forces of the ties.
All mast sections should be stored on dry firm ground and as
close to the erection place as possible.
Foundation
Prepare the foundation with parts required for fixing the base
frame of the mast. See chapter Foundation in the manual
Technical Description.
IMPORTANT! Make sure before casting the foundation that
the measurement between the centre foundation frame and the wall corresponds to the
ties to be used.
i2
Delivery check-up
Check the delivery against shipping lists and look for transportation damage.
Transportation
damage?
Shortages?
Should there be any damage, report the same to the responsible

transportation insurance company within 7 days from the date
of arrival of the goods.
Other claims should be made to ALIMAK representative within
the same period.

ALIMAK 33964 -1/03

Arrangement of power supply

Direct On Line (DOL) starting of electric motors results in a very
high starting current. The current must overcome the resistance
in the cables which results in a voltage drop. This voltage drop
occurs not only in the trailing cables, but also in the power
supply cable installed between the jobsite distribution board and
the electric panel B at the base. The total voltage drop is the
sum of the voltage drop in all the cables. The consequence of
the voltage drop is a substantial reduction in the output torque
from the motor.
i4
In order to avoid starting problems it is of the utmost importance

that the main power supply is adequately sized with respect to
the starting current and the voltage drop. The following figures
should be noticed:
During starting conditions, in the upward direction with rated
load, the voltage drop must not exceed 15% of the rated
voltage when measuring at the motor terminals. In the Base
panel, the voltage drop at the incoming power supply
terminals must not exceed 3% of the rated voltage during the
starting conditions.
Once the rated speed is established during upward travel with
rated load, the voltage drop must not exceed 5% of the rated
voltage when measuring at the motor terminals. In the Base
panel, the incoming power supply voltage should, in practice,
not drop at all, i.e. not exceed 1 2 % drop.
Clients power supply

Supply cables to hoists and lifts with DOL or Y/D starting
f4
The 3-phase power supply cable from the jobsite distribution

board to the B panel at the base can be calculated from the
formulas below. The formulas are applicable for the most common
types of hoists and lifts having 1, 2 or 3 motor drive machinery
with DOL-starting at 400V 50Hz and 460V 60Hz and Scando
Super with electro hydraulic drive and Y/D (Star/Delta) motor
starter.
Note If an earth leakage circuit breaker, ELCB, (ground fault
circuit breaker) is to be used, the trip-out value should be
chosen for equipment protection i.e. 500mA.
Use of 30mA ELCB is not recommended as it continuously
trips out due to the motor starting current.

L = Length in m of the 3-phase power supply cable from the jobsite distribution board to the Base panel
For conductor sizes in AWG No:s, see conversion table below.
*
In order to avoid single phasing should a main fuse blow, we strongly recommend the power supply to be fused
by means of a three-phase circuit breaker.
Supply cables to hoists and lifts with VFC

(Variable Frequency Converter)
The size of the power supply cable must always comply with
Rules and Regulations stipulated by the local Autority for
electrical installations. Clients power supply cable must also be
sized to ensure that the voltage drop in the Base panel does not
exceed 3% when starting with full load in the upward direction.
The size of the power supply cable can be calculated by following formula:
a = L x P x 0.0056...
...where
a = Conductor area in mm2 copper

board to the Base panel

50/60Hz.
ALIMAK 33966 -1/03

Power supply from generator set at jobsite

Required generator power
It is recommended that the generator supplier is requested to
supply a unit which is capable of providing a starting current
of A ampers at rated voltage. If this is not possible, the
guidelines below can be used.
For DOL starting of Alimak hoists and lifts having 1, 2 or 3
drive motors (size 132M, 7.5/8.6 kW) we suggest the following
generator sizes:
1 motor drive size 132M, 7.5 kW (8.6 kW)
70 kVA min.
140 kVA min.
210 kVA min.
1 motor drive Scando Super 45 kW (52 kW) 100 kVA min.

It should be noted that the recommended generator sizes are
large due to the fact that the DOL starting of the motor(s) draws
a large current resulting in a voltage drop which would cause
the contactors to oscillate on and off. A smaller generator might
be used but this can only be established by practical experience
related to a specific make and model of the generator set.
For VFC (Variable Frequency Converter) operated hoists and
lifts the generator size in kVA should be approximately 2 x the
installed motor power in kW.
Voltage drop in the power supply

Typical symptoms
The hoist/lift will not start with the full rated load.
The brakes will not lift when starting in the Up-direction.
The contactors oscillate on and off (shatter) when starting
with full load in the Up-direction.
The contacts of the Up and the main contactors get damaged.
Measures to overcome a voltage drop problem at the jobsite
The best method to avoid any voltage drop problem is to make a
proper engineering review of the conditions at the job site
before installing the hoist/lift. When it is already installed, the
remaining options are limited.
However, should a situation occur where the power supply seems
to be insufficient, it is important to determine whether this
depends on the voltage drop in the power supply or something
else. Use an instrument to measure the incoming power supply
voltage in both the B-panel at the base and the M-panel on/in
the car. Make the readings during starting conditions in the
ALIMAK 33967 -1/03
Upward direction with rated load in the car. If the voltage drop
exceeds the values given above, one or more of the following
measures can be taken:
1. Increase the conductor size in the power supply cable from
the jobsite distribution board to the B-panel at base.
2. Increase the conductor size in the trailing power cables
between the Base panel and the car. Due to mechanical and
performance reasons, the conductors in the trailing cable
should not exceed 10 or 16 mm2.
The fixed cable to the junction box at 1/2 lifting height can
be increased in size.
3. Reduce the rated load.
4. Install a step-up transformer xxx/690V in the power supply
in order to increase the voltage.
Note! Motor windings must be adaptable to this higher voltage
otherwise the motor must be changed. To give the best possible advantage, the step-up transformer should preferably be
located close to the jobsite distribution board.
5. Use some kind of soft start equipment.
If you have any questions regarding the power supply cables
or the trailing cables, please contact Alimak for advice.
