Genie's DC models can be ideal choices for optimal suitability within industrial work locations, specially when low noise and zero-emissions are needed. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery are required to drive long-distances. These units 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 offer 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 used to charge overnight or between shifts. The smart charger system will automatically convert to the AC voltage input and frequency. To save unnecessary power usage which would cost your business this charging system would shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC models provide proportional lift and drive controls that help the operator to utilize precise and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures precise positioning with each and every lift. On non-jib units, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 degrees in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 degrees vertically, that depends on the unit used. Working heights vary from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, depending on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in tight areas. Due to lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift whilst rotating the turntable is not required. Over and up 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 needed.
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 environment.
