Genie's DC units can be perfect options for optimal suitability within industrial work locations, particularly when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the equipment have to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, using the positives of a 48V DC machine and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
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 between shifts or overnight. The smart charger system would 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 when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC models provide proportional drive and lift controls that help the operator to use smooth and accurate movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures accurate 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 degrees in either direction as well as 135 to 139 degrees 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 spaces. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while rotating the turntable is not necessary. Up and over reach on these machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact unit size is ideal for when lighter weight machinery are needed.
For long-lasting, all-day performance for tough jobs, Genie equipment 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 advantages in industrial settings.
