For optimal suitability in industrial work locations, Genie DC equipment may be an ideal choice. When zero-emissions and low noise are required, these machines could be a great choice. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machinery have to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, utilizing the flexibility of diesel-powered generators and the positives of a 48V DC machinery.
To charge the DC battery and to provide the operator with long battery life between charges, Genie DC units 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 frequency and input. In order to save unnecessary power usage which will cost your company this charging system will automatically shut down when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional drive and lift 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 models, 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 five degrees to 139 vertically, depending on the model 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 confined areas. Because of lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift while the turntable is rotating is not necessary. Up and over reach on these machinery is great for working in small areas and the compact unit size is ideal for when lighter weight equipment are needed.
Genie units are fairly quick and easy to maneuver with no tailswing and a smooth ride on its pneumatic tires to produce long-lasting performance on tough jobs. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the benefits in industrial settings.
