Genie's DC units can be ideal choices for optimal suitability in industrial work sites, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery must 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 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 would automatically convert to the AC voltage input and frequency. To save unnecessary power usage that will cost your company this charging system would automatically shut down once the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units provide proportional lift and drive controls that help the operator to utilize 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 models, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 degrees vertically, depending on the unit utilized. Working heights vary from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, that 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. Over and up reach on these types of machinery is great for working in small areas and the compact model size is ideal for when lighter weight machines are required.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie machinery are quick and easily maneuverable with no tailswing and the smooth ride of pneumatic tires. Non-marking foam- and air-filled tires help to increase the benefits within industrial environment.
