Variable-speed control. Right at the hoist.

The Kinesys Elevation 1+ is a compact variable-speed hoist controller designed to sit close to the motor it controls, reducing cabling and keeping the system easy to scale.

Instead of routing large cable runs back to a central rack, multiple Elevation units can share power and data across the rig. That makes the system especially practical for touring productions, temporary installations and larger multi-hoist setups where fast deployment and flexible positioning matter.

Key Features

Type: Variable-speed hoist controller
System: Kinesys Elevation
Application: Chain hoist automation

  • Designed to be positioned close to the chain hoist, keeping motor control local and reducing the amount of cabling required across the rig.

  • Provides smooth variable-speed operation for compatible chain hoists, making it suitable for both setup work and programmed show movement.

  • Multiple units can share power and data through daisy-chained connections, helping simplify larger systems and speed up installation.

  • Elevation 1+ can be used with Kinesys Vector for programmed motion control or with the Kinesys Rigger handset for simpler setup and manual movement.
