Product Name
Explosion-Proof Single-Girder Overhead Crane
case
Explosion-Proof Overhead Crane Exported to Russia
Based on the client’s on-site environment and operational needs, we customized a full explosion-proof single-girder overhead crane designed to the Ex d II BT4 standard. The hoisting mechanism includes an explosion-proof motor and sealed gearbox, paired with a high-strength explosion-proof control cabinet to ensure overall system safety. The control system supports explosion-proof wireless remote control, effectively reducing personnel exposure to risk. The entire crane passed third-party explosion-proof certification and was delivered with bilingual (Russian & Chinese) technical documentation and compliance materials.

01-Project Overview
In december 2022, we successfully delivered a 10-ton explosion-proof single-girder overhead crane to a large chemical company in Russia. The equipment was installed in the plant’s reactor area and is used for routine equipment maintenance and material handling in an environment with combustible gases. The project demanded high standards for explosion protection, electrical safety, and operational stability. The client aimed to ensure production safety and improve lifting efficiency through this explosion-proof lifting system.
02-Industry Background
In industries like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and oil & gas, production environments often involve flammable gases or dust. Any electrical spark or abnormal mechanical friction can easily cause safety incidents. Therefore, lifting equipment must comply with both national and international explosion-proof standards and feature reliable sealing, insulation, and temperature control to ensure safe and dependable operation.
03-Customer Requirements
- The crane must meet both Russian national and European explosion-proof certifications
- All electrical components must be explosion-proof to eliminate the risk of sparks
- Must support remote control operation to minimize personnel exposure to hazardous zones
- Smooth lifting and precise handling to avoid load sway
- Manufacturing, shipping, and on-site commissioning to be completed within 60 days
04-Solution
- Design Phase: Provided plant hazardous area analysis, lifting path planning, and electrical isolation recommendations
- Production Stage: Key components sourced from internationally certified brands (e.g., ABB, Schneider explosion-proof series)
- Transport Logistics: Custom moisture-proof and cold-resistant packaging to suit Russia’s harsh winter climate
- Post-Delivery Service: Remote video support and bilingual operation training materials ensured independent operation by the client
05-Project Highlights
- Full Explosion-Proof Design: All components from motor to remote control comply with Ex standards, suitable for Zone 1 and Zone 2 environments
- Efficient Delivery: Total manufacturing + shipping cycle was 58 days, completing the project ahead of schedule
- Dual Certification: Complies with both IECEx and Russian GOST explosion-proof standards
- Modular Installation: On-site beam assembly, wiring, and commissioning completed in just 2 days
- Enhanced Safety: Replacing the previous standard crane significantly reduced safety hazards and increased operational security
