Overview

About the TSA Chain Motor Controllers

TSA Chain Motor Controllers are professional-grade rigging control systems designed to manage multiple chain hoists simultaneously across complex, large-scale productions. Configurable from 8 up to 48 channels, these controllers are built to scale with the demands of the show, whether that’s a small theatre fit-up or a full-scale touring concert rig. Each system is tailored to the specific requirements of the installation or tour, giving production and rigging crews a reliable, purpose-built solution rather than a generic off-the-shelf unit.

Control, Power & Safety

TSA controllers support both low voltage and direct control protocols, with single-phase or three-phase power inputs terminated via Cam-type connectors, including pass-through options for streamlined power distribution on site. Output connections are available in multi-pin or dual twist-lock formats to suit various motor configurations. Safety is central to the system design: a processor-independent emergency stop circuit ensures that e-stop functionality remains active regardless of controller status, while individual bump buttons on each channel allow precise manual operation during load-in and focus. Smart sensing technology continuously monitors load conditions across all active channels, adding an additional layer of protection for cast, crew, and equipment. The system holds UL Listing, meeting rigorous international safety standards relevant to professional rigging applications.

Touring & Installation Ready

TSA controllers are rack-mounted within rugged ATA-rated flight cases or custom-built enclosures, making them equally suited to permanent venue installations and high-demands touring environments. The modular, configurable architecture means a system can be specified and built out precisely for a given project, from a fixed theatrical grid to a multi-motor touring truss system, without unnecessary overhead. This flexibility, combined with robust build quality, makes TSA controllers a trusted choice for riggers and production managers working across theatre, live music, corporate events, and broadcast/film studio environments.
