For optimal suitability in industrial work locations, Genie DC machines may be an ideal alternative. When low noise and zero-emissions are needed, these equipment can be a terrific option. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machines should drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, using the positives of a 48V DC machine and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
To charge the DC battery and to provide the operator with long battery life between charges, Genie DC models have systems on-board. There is also a 30 amp universal smart charger system utilized to charge between shifts or overnight. The smart charger system would automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. In order to save unnecessary power usage that would cost your company this charging system would shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional drive and lift controls that help the operator to use accurate and smooth movements and regulate the speed of every function. This ensures accurate positioning with each and every lift. On non-jib models, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 degrees in either direction as well as 135 to 139 degrees vertically, which depends on the unit utilized. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, depending on the unit. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in tight spaces. Due to lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift while the turntable is rotating is not needed. Up and over reach on these kinds of equipment is great for working in small areas and the compact unit size is perfect for when lighter weight machines are required.
For long-lasting, all-day performance for tough jobs, Genie equipment are quick and easily maneuverable with the smooth ride of pneumatic tires and no tailswing. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the advantages in industrial settings.
