Genie's DC models can be perfect options for optimal suitability within industrial work locations, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machinery 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 input and frequency. In order to save unnecessary power usage that would cost your company this charging system would shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional lift and drive controls that help the user to use accurate and smooth movements and regulate the speed of each and every function. This ensures accurate positioning with each and 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 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 areas. Due to lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while the turntable is rotating is not required. Over and up reach on these machines is great for working in small areas and the compact unit size is ideal for when lighter weight machinery are needed.
For long-lasting, all-day performance for tough jobs, Genie machines 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 in industrial environment.
