Genie's DC units could be ideal choices for optimal suitability within industrial work sites, especially when zero-emissions and low noise are needed. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machines are needed to drive long-distances. These units combine the best of both worlds, making use of the flexibility of diesel-powered generators and the positives of a 48V DC machine.
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 that would automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. In order to save unnecessary power usage which will cost your company this charging system will shut down automatically once the battery pack has reached full charge. Genie DC units offer proportional drive and lift controls which help the user to utilize smooth and accurate movements and regulate the speed of each and every function. This ensures precise positioning with each lift. On non-jib units, the self-levelling platform rotates to 90 in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 degrees in either direction as well as 135 five degrees to 139 degrees vertically, depending on the model used. Working heights vary from 12.52 meters to 15.94 meters, which depends on the model. Genie DC lifts are stable when rotating the turntable in tight areas. Because of lack of tailswing, lift repositioning while the turntable is rotating is not required. Up and over reach on these machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact model size is ideal for when lighter weight machines are required.
For long-lasting, all-day performance for tough jobs, Genie machinery are easily maneuverable and quick with the smooth ride of pneumatic tires and no tailswing. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the benefits within industrial settings.
