3.0 - Configuration & Components
The PH Series Hoist is designed to extend and retract a line from a drum that is used as a tether line when performing a
confined space entry operation. The PH Series Hoist is equipped with a long-life friction-brake system that is supplemented
by a positive-locking double-pawl arrangement. PH Series Hoists are also equipped with a centrifugal “overspeed” brake
for redundancy. This feature completely eliminates the possibility of “free-wheeling” in the event that the primary braking
system is disabled. Line extension or retraction is controlled by the drive handle which is attached to the drive shaft.
The hoist is available with a variety of adapter brackets. These adapter brackets allow the hoist to be easily secured to
and removed from various Pelsue and other manufacturer’s rescue & retrieval systems (i.e. tripods , davits, etc,)
Line extension (pay out) should occur
ONly
when the handle is turned counterclockwise
AND
a force of
At leASt
10
lbs. (4.5 kg.) is applied to the hoist line. When there is no tension on the line, turning the handle counterclockwise should
NOt
cause the drum to move. If the drum rotates under these conditions, the hoist should be removed from service and
sent to Pelsue for inspection and possible repair.
Line retraction (take up) should occur when the handle is turned in the clockwise direction.
Below is a table showing the models of the PH Series Hoist with their corresponding chassis size, line length, and line
types.

Models & Specs
NOte: the PH Series Hoist is equipped with a safety mechanism which prevents the accidental pay out of large
amounts of line. In the absence of constant tension on the line, the drive handle will continue to turn, however,
the hoist line WIll NOt pay off of the drum. It will appear that the handle has come loose; tHIS IS NOt tHe
CASe. It cannot come free of the shaft. Simply turning the handle in a clockwise manner will cause the handle
to pay in line after a maximum of five (5) revolutions before the lifting brakes are once again engaged.
