1. GENERAL INFORMATION 

Attention

: All users must read these operating 

instructions carefully prior to the initial operation. These 
instructions are intended to acquaint the user with the 
hoist controller and enable him/her to use it to the full 
extent of its intended capabilities. 

The operating instructions contain important information  
on how to handle the hoist controller in a safe, correct and 
economic way. Acting in accordance with these 
instructions helps to avoid dangers, reduce repair costs 

and downtime and to increase the reliability and lifetime of 
the hoist controller. 
Anyone involved in doing any of the following work with 
the hoist controller must read the operating instructions 

and act accordingly: 

• Operation, including preparation, trouble shooting and 

cleaning 

• Maintenance, inspection, repair 

• Transport 

Apart from the operating instructions and the accident 
prevention act valid for the respective country and area 

where the hoist controller is used, also the commonly 
accepted regulations for safe and professional work must 
be adhered to. 
The user is responsible for the proper and professional 

instruction of the operating personnel. 

Suitable for entertainment use 

The 

PRO

LYFT AETOS hoist controllers are specially 

designed for use in the Entertainment industry. They must 
only control electric chain hoists that are suitable for use 
in the Entertainment industry. 

Combining the hoist controller with different type of 
electric chain hoists might lead to unwanted, unexpected 
or dangerous situations. 
The 

PRO

LYFT AETOS hoist controllers are not designed 

to control hoists suspending or lifting loads above people. 

Read the manual of the electric chain hoists before 
starting to operate them with the hoist controller. 

Regulations 

The accident prevention act and/or safety regulations of 
the respective country for using manual and electric chain 
hoists must be strictly adhered: 

• Europe:  

• Machine Directive 2006/42/EG 
• Safety of Machinery NEN 12100:2010 
• Germany: BGV D6, BGV D8 

Additional regulations are in effect for lifting or suspending 
loads over people. 
Germany: SQ P2 
The Netherlands: NPR8020-10 

United Kingd

om: BS7950-1

 

Maintenance/Repair 

In order to ensure correct operation, not only the 

operating instructions, but also the conditions for 
inspection and maintenance must be complied with.  If 
defects are found or abnormal  noise is to be heard stop 

using the hoist controller immediately. 

Attention:  

Before  starting to work  on  electrical 

components  the  power-supply is to be cut off. 

2. INCORRECT OPERATION 

Do not 

exceed the rated power capacity per controlled 

channel. 

Do not

 lift stuck or jammed  loads. 

Do not

 shortly and frequently actuate the up/down 

switch. 

• Do not 

control hoists if the movement of the load is not 

visible from the operating position. 

• Do not

 control hoists if you are skilled for lifting loads 

• Do not 

use cables with damaged strain reliefs and/or 

isolation. 

• Do not 

use any input- or output cables that are not 

suitable for the supplied voltage and / or current. 

• Do not

 use the Thuja data connection (link in, link out) 

with other network devices unless these devices are 
specified to be suitable for use in the Thuja data 
network. 

• Do not 

connect the controller to a mains connection that 

is not properly fused. 

• Do not 

use the controller without proper grounding. 

• Do not

 connect more then one hoist on a single 

channel.

 

3. ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS 

All electric connections must be used with respect for the 
specified voltages and maximum power consumption. 

Power input: 

The power input connector is a 5pin CEEform connector 
suitable for 3 phase 32Amp / 400Volt. 3 Phases, neutral 
and ground. 

Depending on the type of controller it can be plugged in to 
either a 3 phase 400V or a 3 phase 230V mains 
connections. 

Make sure the mains connection is fused at maximum 
32Amps per phase. It is advised to use circuit breakers  
with a C or D characteristic. 

Make sure the mains connection is properly grounded. 
Improper grousing might lead to dangerous with the 

risk 

of electric shock. 

Maximum power consumption per hoist. 

Each hoist channel is capable of switching an electric 
chain hoist with maximum power consumption of 1,5kW. 

 

Power output to the hoists 

For each 4 hoist channels there is a Harting 16 output 
connector.  

Make sure the cables (and each individual wire of the 
cable) connected to the output connector are suitable for 
minimum 10Amps at 400V per wire.  

To avoid voltage drops longer cables should have bigger 
wire diameters.
