Genie's DC models may be perfect alternatives for optimal suitability in industrial work sites, especially when low noise and zero-emissions are required. Genie bi-energy, hybrid systems are available for applications where the machines should drive long-distances. These models combine the best of both worlds, using the flexibility of diesel-powered generators and the positives of a 48V DC equipment.
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 which would automatically convert to the AC voltage frequency and input. 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 provide proportional drive and lift controls which help the operator to use 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 degrees in either direction. For jib models, the jib can rotate 80 in either direction as well as 135 to 139 vertically, depending on the unit used. Working heights range 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. Due to lack of tailswing, repositioning of the lift while rotating the turntable is not necessary. Over and up reach on these machines is great for working in small spaces and the compact unit size is ideal for when lighter weight machinery are needed.
For all-day, long-lasting performance for tough jobs, Genie machines are easily maneuverable and quick with no tailswing and the smooth ride of pneumatic tires. Air-filled and non-marking foam tires help to increase the advantages within industrial settings.
