Genie's DC units could be perfect options for optimal suitability in industrial work locations, particularly when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the equipment are required to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, making use of the positives of a 48V DC machine and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
Genie DC units have systems on-board to charge the battery and offer the operator with long battery life between charges. When being charged between shifts or overnight, there is a 30 amp universal smart charger system that would automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. To save unnecessary power usage that will cost your company this charging system will automatically shut down once the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional lift and drive controls that help the operator to use smooth and accurate movements and regulate the speed of every function. This ensures precise positioning with each and every lift. On non-jib units, 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, that depends on the model used. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, that depends on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined areas. Due to lack of tailswing, lift repositioning whilst 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 equipment are required.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie equipment are quick and easily maneuverable with the smooth ride of pneumatic tires and no tailswing. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the benefits within industrial environment.
