Genie 112630 Hoist Operator Head 1/2 Hp with Brake

Product Description

The GENIE 112630 is a medium-duty, single-phase hoist operator head designed for motorized rolling door applications. Rated at 1/2 HP, it provides the mechanical drive and control needed to raise and lower rolling doors in commercial and light-industrial settings. The unit ships with an integrated brake, which holds the door in position when the motor is not running. The powder-coated black finish provides corrosion resistance for typical interior overhead installations. At 70 pounds, this is a substantial unit that requires proper mounting structure and at least a two-person installation crew.

This hoist operator head is engineered for rolling doors up to 16 feet in height. Typical installations include commercial storefronts, warehouse bays, service garages, and loading docks where a single-phase power supply is available. The integrated brake makes it well-suited for applications where door drift or back-drive is a safety or security concern. It is not intended for residential sectional garage door systems or high-cycle industrial applications requiring three-phase power.

Installation Notes

Installation of this hoist operator head should be performed by a licensed contractor or qualified technician familiar with commercial overhead door systems and local electrical codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the circuit before mounting or wiring the unit. The assembly weighs 70 pounds and requires adequate structural support at the header; verify that the mounting structure meets load requirements before fastening. Follow applicable NEC requirements for motor branch-circuit wiring, overcurrent protection, and disconnect placement.
