Overview
The KUPO RH-SP48W is a 480 kg single-phase brushless DC chain hoist with wireless remote control up to 100 m. It combines the heavier SP48 load class with AC 90-270 V single-phase power, IP 55 protection, 4.0 x 12 mm Grade 80 load chain, and remote operation for flexible setup conditions.
Why It Matters
This is the SP-series option when the load class is 480 kg and the operator should not be tied to a pendant cable. The slower full speed compared with the 240 kg model gives the heavier load more controlled movement.
Key Features
- 480 kg capacity and 0.63-1.6 m/min slow, 6.3 m/min full lifting speed match the intended rigging workload.
- Grade 80, 4.0 x 12 mm, EN 818-7 compliant load chain gives the hoist the correct chain size and pitch for its lift wheel.
- Mechanical ratchet load brake provides the primary holding action when power is removed or a fault occurs.
- Wireless remote control gives the operator freedom from a pendant cable keeps the operator workflow clear for this control version.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this model for direct control or central controller operation
RH-SP48W uses wireless remote control with range up to 100 m.
How is this different from the nearest sister model
Compared with RH-SP48, this version replaces pendant control with wireless remote operation.
Can I swap to a different load chain size
No. Use the specified Grade 80 EN 818-7 load chain size for the hoist. Chain diameter, pitch, and load wheel geometry must match the hoist design.
