The CM Lodestar CM-ET Motor is a robust and reliable electric chain hoist designed for precision lifting and positioning of loads in industrial, theatrical, and installation environments. This specific model is a 1-ton (2,000 lb) capacity hoist featuring a single brake system and a 60-foot lift height, making it suitable for a wide range of material handling and rigging applications. It is engineered for durability and safety, constructed with a high-performance motor and a durable welded-link chain that provides smooth, controlled lifting and lowering. The hoist is commonly used in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, on stages for moving lighting trusses and scenery, and in construction settings for lifting machinery or building components.

The CM-ET motor incorporates a load-sensitive mechanical brake that automatically engages to hold the load securely when the motor is not powered, ensuring safety during operation. The "Spx-7 Pin" designation refers to the specific connector type for the control pendant, which provides users with simple and reliable push-button control for hoisting, lowering, and stopping. This standardized connector allows for quick connection and disconnection of the control pendant, facilitating easier setup and maintenance. The 60-foot lift capacity offers significant vertical travel, accommodating high ceilings and multi-level lifting needs common in theatrical fly systems and industrial mezzanines.

Built to meet rigorous safety standards, the Lodestar CM-ET hoist features thermal overload protection to prevent motor damage from excessive use, and its design emphasizes low maintenance and long service life. The unit is designed for stationary mounting on a beam trolley or fixed point, and its relatively compact size allows for efficient use of overhead space. With its combination of dependable power, precise control, and built-in safety features, the CM Lodestar CM-ET 1-ton hoist is a trusted tool for professionals who require a safe and efficient solution for vertical material movement.
