Genie's DC models could be perfect alternatives for optimal suitability in industrial work locations, particularly when zero-emissions and low noise are required. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery are needed to drive long-distances. These models combine the best of both worlds, using the positives of a 48V DC machinery and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
Genie DC models have systems on-board to charge the battery and offer the operator with long battery life between charges. When being charged overnight or between shifts, there is a 30 amp universal smart charger system that would automatically convert to the AC voltage input and frequency. In order 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 offer proportional lift and drive controls which help the operator to use accurate and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures accurate positioning with each and every lift. On non-jib models, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 degrees in either direction. For jib units, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 vertically, which depends on the model used. 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. Because of lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift whilst the turntable is rotating is not required. Over and up reach on these machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact model size is ideal for when lighter weight machinery are required.
Genie units are quite easy and quick to maneuver with a smooth ride on its pneumatic tires and no tailswing to produce long-lasting performance on tough jobs. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the benefits within industrial settings.
