Genie's DC units may be ideal options for optimal suitability within industrial work locations, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are required. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machines must drive long-distances. These models combine the best of both worlds, making use of 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 models have systems on-board. There is also a 30 amp universal smart charger system utilized 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 business this charging system would shut down automatically once the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units provide proportional drive and lift controls that help the operator to use smooth and precise 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 degrees in either direction. For jib units, the jib can rotate 80 degrees in either direction as well as 135 five degrees to 139 vertically, depending on the unit 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 while the turntable is rotating is not required. Up and over reach on these machinery is great for working in small areas and the compact model size is perfect for when lighter weight equipment are required.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie machinery are quick and easily maneuverable with the smooth ride of pneumatic tires and no tailswing. Non-marking foam- and air-filled tires help to increase the benefits in industrial settings.
