Product Description
Overview
The KUPO RD-1000P is a 1000 kg D8 Plus chain hoist with direct control and Micro Switch Positioning (MSP). It gives rigging crews a straightforward pendant-style workflow, chain-mounted limit setup, and the RD series lifting package for professional entertainment applications.
Why It Matters
Choose this version when the rig needs direct control plus fast local travel-limit setup. MSP uses rubber blocks on the load chain to define upper and lower travel points, while the datasheet protection rating remains IP 20.
Key Features
- 1000 kg WLL and 4 m/min at 50 Hz, 4.8 m/min at 60 Hz lifting speed suit the intended RIGPRO D8 Plus hoist class.
- Grade VH/100, 7.1 x 20.2 mm, EN 818-7. This gives the 1000 kg model the stronger chain specification required for the RD-1000 update.
- Spring-loaded heavy-duty DC brake holds the load safely when power is removed or a fault occurs.
- Micro Switch Positioning (MSP) supports quick up/down travel-limit setup with chain-mounted rubber blocks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the right hoist if I need central motor-desk control
No. This is the direct-control version. Choose RD-1000LV when low-voltage controller operation is required.
What is the main difference from its sister model
Compared with RD-1000LV, RD-1000P is direct control, includes Micro Switch Positioning (MSP), and is listed with IP 20 protection.
Can I use any load chain with this hoist
Use the specified Grade VH (Grade 100) chain for this hoist. Its dimensions and construction fully conform to EN 818-7 calibrated hoist chain requirements, while the material strength conforms to Grade VH (Grade 100).
