Single scissor lift tables
1. Flat or tear drop pattern deck top, The top roll over edges of our scissor lifts are are square (not radius) for greater strength, smoother load transfer and flush mounting of handrail, conveyors etc.
2. A perimeter safety trip frame is fitted to the undersides of the platform to prevent further lowering should an obstruction be encountered. For added safety, operator reset is standard.
3. The scissor arms for lift tables up to 3 metres in length are usually profiled, solid steel. For larger lifts, steel hollow section is used to provide greater stability. A substantial torsion tube is fitted between the armsets to help ensure good synchronisation and stability even when the scissor lifts are eccentrically loaded.
4. Bearing bushes - Pre-Lubricated, replaceable type bearing bushes are standard features
5. The 1.400 rpm power packs are selected for their exceptional reliability and low noise (<70dBA). A built in high pressure filter helps protect the lowering valve from malfunction. The lowering speed is adjustable on site and is controlled by a pressure compensating valve. Mains supply 400V, 3 phase, 50Hz; control circuits 24V, 50 Hz. except for types marked *(230V, 1 phase, 50Hz), Each lift is protected to IP54 and is ready to use when connected to a mains supply and suitably installed. The control station is on 3 metres of flexible cable complete with Emergency Stop and deadman (constant pressure) UP and DOWN push buttons.
