OZ Lifting Davit Crane Installed on Hospital Rooftop


A davit crane, manufactured by OZ Lifting Products LLC, was installed by Hilmerson Safety on the rooftop of a major regional teaching hospital located in Hastings, Minnesota recently.

The 1,200-lb. capacity OZ1200DAV, sourced from OZ distributor Sharrow Lifting Products, was the latest in a series of products and services delivered to the facility by Hilmerson, which has provided rooftop fall protection solutions and training for the organization since 2011. Hilmerson has worked with its partners to pioneer continued improvement of working at height best practices at the site and ensure compliance with OSHA and other standards.

The hospital is an ACS verified Level I Trauma Center for both children and adults, and was Minnesota's first pediatric trauma center to gain that status. The facility will use the crane on a regular (monthly) basis as contractors and third parties perform preventative maintenance on equipment, such as changing filters on rooftop units, air conditioning, fans, and condensers.
