D-Series Servo Hoist

Knight Global’s D-Series Servo Hoist comes equipped with all the features of the patented “Safety Drop Stop” Servo Hoist launched in 2017, minus the I/O for a significantly reduced cost.

Introducing a dynamic servo hoist solution that is the safest, most intelligent and now, the most economical hoist in the world.

This new dynamic servo hoist is equipped with all the same programming features and benefits as the current servo hoist systems, minus any I/O. This new version of the servo hoist allows Knight Global to be more competitive with the lower end Intelligent Assist Devices (IAD’s) in the industry without sacrificing safety or intelligent features.

Additionally, the D-Series Servo Hoist includes a drop-in graphite stick inside of the gear tower to ensure lubrication of the chains. Replacement sticks can be ordered separately.

This hoist requires the use of the KLCA1030 Inline Control Handle.
