Genie's DC models may be ideal choices for optimal suitability in industrial work sites, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machines should 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 machine.
To charge the DC battery and to offer 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 company this charging system will automatically shut down when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC models provide proportional lift and drive controls which help the operator to utilize accurate and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures precise positioning with each lift. On non-jib units, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 vertically, which depends on the model utilized. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, which depends on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined spaces. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning whilst the turntable is rotating is not needed. Over and up reach on these machinery is great for working in small areas and the compact model size is ideal for when lighter weight machines are required.
For long-lasting, all-day 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 advantages in industrial environment.
