Genie's DC units can be ideal choices for optimal suitability in industrial work locations, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the equipment need to 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 units 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 will automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. To save unnecessary power usage which will cost your business this charging system would automatically shut down when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units provide proportional lift and drive controls which help the user to use precise and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each function. This ensures precise positioning with every lift. On non-jib units, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 in either direction. For jib units, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 five degrees to 139 vertically, depending on the unit utilized. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, depending on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in tight areas. Due to lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift whilst rotating the turntable is not necessary. Over and up reach on these machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact model size is ideal for when lighter weight machinery are required.
Genie models are fairly quick and easy to maneuver with no tailswing and a smooth ride on its pneumatic tires to produce long-lasting performance on tough jobs. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the advantages in industrial settings.
