Genie's DC models may be perfect alternatives for optimal suitability in industrial work locations, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are required. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery have to 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 between shifts or overnight. The smart charger system will automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. In order to save unnecessary power usage that will cost your company this charging system would shut down automatically once the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC models offer proportional drive and lift controls that help the operator to utilize accurate and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each and every 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 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 vertically, which depends on the model utilized. Working heights vary from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, depending on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined spaces. Due to lack of tailswing, lift repositioning whilst rotating the turntable is not required. 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 required.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie equipment are easily maneuverable and quick with no tailswing and the smooth ride of pneumatic tires. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the benefits within industrial settings.
