Genie's DC units could be ideal choices for optimal suitability in industrial work locations, particularly when zero-emissions and low noise are required. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machines are required to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, utilizing the positives of a 48V DC machinery and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
Genie DC models have systems on-board to charge the battery and provide the operator with long battery life between charges. When being charged overnight or between shifts, there is a 30 amp universal smart charger system which would automatically convert to the AC voltage input and frequency. In order to save unnecessary power usage which would cost your company this charging system will 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 every function. This ensures precise positioning with 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 degrees in either direction as well as 135 five degrees to 139 vertically, which depends on the unit used. Working heights vary from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, which depends on the unit. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined areas. Due to lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift while rotating the turntable is not required. Up and over reach on these types of machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact model size is perfect for when lighter weight machines are needed.
Genie units are quite easy and quick to maneuver with no tailswing and a smooth ride on its pneumatic tires to produce long-lasting performance on tough jobs. Non-marking foam- and air-filled tires help to increase the advantages within industrial settings.
