Genie's DC units could be ideal alternatives for optimal suitability within industrial work sites, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are required. Genie hybrid, bi-energy systems are available for applications where the machines need to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, using the positives of a 48V DC machine and the flexibility of diesel-powered generators.
To charge the DC battery and to provide 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 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 would cost your company this charging system would shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC models offer proportional drive and lift controls which help the operator to utilize smooth and accurate movements and regulate the speed of every function. This ensures accurate positioning with each and every lift. On non-jib models, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 degrees in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 five degrees to 139 vertically, that depends on the model utilized. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, depending on the unit. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in confined spaces. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while the turntable is rotating is not required. Over and up reach on these kinds of machines is great for working in small areas and the compact model size is perfect for when lighter weight machinery are required.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie machines are quick and easily maneuverable 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.
