Genie has expanded the provision of its electrical S-60 DC and hybrid S-60 FE – light-weight, four-wheel drive electrified telescopic increase lifts within the 60-foot top class – into the North American market.

The lifts have a working top of 65.1 toes (20 m) and a 61-foot, 2-inch (18.6 m) platform top, and are constructed on the success of Genie’s FE hybrid and DC electrical expertise to ship clear, quiet job website efficiency that require much less upkeep and have a decrease whole price of possession.

Out there in some markets since Might 2022, the S-60 FE and S-60 DC have already been acknowledged for his or her capability to supply efficiency, versatility, and a diminished environmental footprint. In addition they meet rising demand on massive job websites for versatile tools that may work indoors and out, together with on tough terrain. Each models are able to working in these circumstances.

Genie’s “no compromises” hybrid expertise provides the S-60 FE all of the efficiency advantages of a 4×4 diesel machine, in addition to the advantages of a clear, quiet electrical increase. The S-60 FE can be utilized indoors and outside and work multiple week on a single tank of gas. Each the S-60 DC and the S-60 FE – when run in full electrical mode – ship a full day’s efficiency on a single battery cost. Moreover, the FE mannequin’s clever management system retains the batteries charged and the machine able to work by utilizing each regenerative braking expertise and computerized engine begin and cease. By charging the batteries whereas the increase works, job websites can virtually completely remove downtime normally attributable to plug-in charging.

Just like the S-60 FE, the S-60 DC delivers true four-wheel drive capabilities with 4 environment friendly AC electrical drive motors. Moreover, the S-60 DC mannequin gives a low weight of 17,600 kilos (7,983 kg) and quiet operation for finish customers on the lookout for a strong, all-electric increase. The FE model weighs 17,750 kilos (8,051 kg), simply barely greater than the DC model, making both increase best for functions the place ground loading have to be managed.

On the similar time, high-efficiency AC drive motors on all 4 wheels present comparable torque as hydraulic drive motors whereas utilizing 30-40 % much less vitality. 4-wheel drive plus digital traction administration and lively oscillating axles allow excellent efficiency on uneven terrain with 45 % gradeability in tough terrain.

A 24.8 hp DPF-free Stage V engine eliminates the necessity for after-treatment or low-sulphur gas, decreasing the time and expense of upkeep and repairs whereas providing on the spot efficiency – it takes simply seconds to begin the engine, delivering on the spot energy and torque when wanted. Moreover, upkeep wants are additional diminished by a design that has 70 % fewer hydraulic parts and transferring components.
