Air Products Ltd has awarded an £80,000 ($125,000) contract to KCI Carruthers of Scotland to build a 22t-capacity, 16.5m-span explosion-proof crane, to be installed in the Petronas refinery in Malaysia. Delivery is scheduled for the end of June.

Dual speeds on all motions controlled by pendant with overload protection and selected XE range components for the dangerous working environment are designed for reliability.

The contract follows delivery of cranes to Saudi Arabia, also for Air Products, at the end of last year.
