Genie's DC models can be ideal options for optimal suitability within industrial work sites, specially when low noise and zero-emissions are required. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machinery need to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, using the flexibility of diesel-powered generators and the positives of a 48V DC equipment.
Genie DC units 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 that will automatically convert to the AC voltage input and frequency. In order to save unnecessary power usage which would cost your business this charging system will shut down automatically when the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional drive and lift 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 every lift. On non-jib models, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 degrees in either direction. For jib units, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 vertically, which depends on the unit utilized. Working heights range from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, that depends on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in tight spaces. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while rotating the turntable is not needed. Up and over reach on these kinds of equipment is great for working in small areas and the compact model size is perfect for when lighter weight equipment are required.
Genie units are quite 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.
