Speed limiter (1) for a hoist, in particular an elevator system, comprising a rope disc driven by a speed limiter section (4) and a brake for braking the rope disc (4),where the brake comprises at least one pivoting point on the disc (4) (7a, 7b), with the brake comprising a first pivoting weight (8a) and a second pivoting weight (8b), with the eccentric point (7a, 7b) pivoting at the first pivoting weight (8a) and pivoting at the second pivoting weight (8b), where, in the case of a force-related displacement of the first and second flyweights (8a, 8b), the first and second flyweights (8a, 8b) swing the eccentric section (7a, 7b), with the brake comprising a spare unit (10) with a spring system comprising the flyweights (8a,(8b) draws the spring force provided by the spring system towards its non-directional position (9), characterized by the fact that the spring system has up to an electric switching speed of the cable disc (4) a first spring component (D1); that the spring system has a second spring component (D2) from the electric switching speed of the cable disc (4) and that the second spring component (D2) is greater than the first spring component (D1).
