The automatic onboard barrier is a safety
device that safeguards the user against roll-off
and entering and accidently exiting when the
user is on the platform. In combination with
the active ramp, the two mechanically driven
self-locking bars greatly increase the user’s
sense of security when the user is on the lifting
platform.
When the lift is resting at the lower level, the
bars hang down along the side of the lift and
allow access. When the lift moves away from
the lower level and before the lift is more than
50 mm above the lower level, the bars will tilt
up and lock. The bars will now act as a safety
barrier. When the lift moves back to the lower
level or is in stair mode, the bars will
automatically tilt down along the side and allow
access.
Liftup recommends that the automatic
onboard barrier option be chosen for 4, 5 and
6-step lifts.
IMPORTANT!
The automatic onboard barrier has an integral switch that registers whether the bars
are in the correct horizontal locked position. If the bars are NOT in a horizontal
locked position before the lift is more than 50 mm above the lower level, the lift will
stop its movement until the bars are released and free to tilt up into the locked
position.
WARNING!
Be aware of the risk of crushing between the
handrail and automatic onboard barrier when the
lift is transformed from a platform to a staircase.
