Braden Winch Marketing

New Planetary Hoist —Literature Available

Braden Winch Company of Bro- ken Arrow, Okla., a Division of

PACCAR, is now manufacturing and marketing a 12,000-pound plan- etary hoist with three-motor and four-drum options, called the

PD12B.

The hoist uses the patented Brad- en HV80 brake valve, which is es- sentially a sophisticated counterbal- ance valve that has proven itself by providing the smoothest operation available. The internal, static load- holding brake is spring-applied and hydraulically released. If the engine dies or a hydraulic line breaks, the load is held firmly in place until power is restored.

Features of the PD12 series hoists include roller bearings under the planetary gears, resulting in high efficiency and an increase in duty cycle. The rope pocket design per- mits smooth spooling and will hold 7/

Drain and fill plugs are located on the support end of the hoist to improve accessibility. The motor can be either internally or external- ly drained for long motor seal life

INTERCOMS

FOR MARINE

COMMUNICATIONS

Designed originally to provide U.S. industry with intercoms which would deliver clear, dependable voice communication under the most severe operating conditions, ADCO units have earned wide acceptance in many segments of the marine industry.

Typical installations are aboard ship—bridge to deck or engine room, control center to diving bell—on offshore oil platforms—and throughout repair yards, dry docks, piers and storage areas.

What makes ADCO intercoms different is their ability to perform efficiently regardless of high ambient noise, weather or temperature extremes. Their heavy-duty cast aluminum cases are built to withstand rough usage—and are both weather and corrosion-proof.

Since each unit is a self-contained station which receives, amplifies and transmits the signal, intercom systems can include many stations over very long distances. Installation is simple and practical: each unit plugs into a nearby AC or DC power source, then is connected by ordinary low voltage 2-wire cable.

Phone or write for bulletin outlining complete range of models available.
