The Pelsue PHQR Series hoist is designed to be a personnel rescue and retrieval device. The PHQR Series hoist shares many of the same qualities and capabilities as a standard PH series hoist but is unique in the fact that the lifting rope is not permanently fixed to the hoist drum. The hoist drum incorporates a rope gripping cleat into which the rescue line can be placed when a retrieval or rescue becomes necessary. This unique feature allows for extremely fast retrieval as there is no need to take up slack in the rescue line as the rope can be gripped at any location along its length. The separation of the rope from the hoist also addressees a safety concern when working in underground manhole vaults that can only be entered roadside where the potential for an out of control vehicle dragging away the retrieval system is possible.

The model #PHQR & #PHQRR do not include rope & hook assemblies, but a wide variety of sub-models are available with varying lengths of rope and differing snap hooks & end fittings. The PHQR series can coil a maximum of 70’ of 1/4” synthetic rope. The use of wire rope is not possible on the PHQR series hoist. The PHQR hoist is equipped with a standard Pelsue Quick-Release bracket (#501073-001). Other adapter brackets can be supplied or added upon request.
