For optimal suitability within industrial work locations, Genie DC equipment may be an ideal alternative. When low noise and zero-emissions are required, these equipment can be a terrific option. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery must drive long-distances. These models combine the best of both worlds, making use of the positives of a 48V DC equipment 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 will automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. To save unnecessary power usage which will cost your company this charging system will shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units provide proportional lift and drive controls that help the operator to use smooth and accurate movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures precise positioning with every lift. On non-jib models, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 in either direction. For jib units, the jib can rotate 80 degrees in either direction as well as 135 to 139 degrees vertically, that depends on the model used. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, which depends on the unit. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined areas. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while the turntable is rotating is not necessary. Up and over reach on these kinds of equipment is great for working in small areas and the compact unit size is ideal for when lighter weight equipment are needed.
Genie models are fairly quick and easy to maneuver with a smooth ride on its pneumatic tires and no tailswing to produce long-lasting performance on tough jobs. Non-marking foam- and air-filled tires help to increase the benefits in industrial environment.
