B 2 Operating limits
Lifting capacity max. 800kg, but actual S.W.L depends of the total lifting capacity of the active
suction pads required for the job specific configuration.
Own weight c.a. 100kg
Load Steel faced composite roof and wall panels. It may also be possible to lift other non
porous materials but it is recommended that test lifts are performed.
The suction area may be flat as slightly structured.
The suction pad seal can compensate (when not too rough) unevenness’s up to 5mm.
Capabilities - 90

C with special precautions.
Service life At least 20.000 cycles 10 years, when properly maintained and used as intended.
Outside use This lifter can also be used outside, however not in area with explosive danger.
Rain and snow This lifter may also be used in rain and snow conditions, however there should be
taken care that excessive water, snow and ice is removed from the suction area.
Water or ice strongly reduces the necessary friction between suction pad and load.
This friction is essential to lift the load in vertical position of the suction pad.
Wind Do not use this lifter at wind speeds above 11 meter/sec.
The maximum wind speed will reduce as panels get longer.
See wind speed tables per machine configuration.
Non rigid plates This lifter is not suitable to lift non rigid plates.
( plate can peal of from the suction pad causing to release the load.
Extra regulations according CE standard EN 13155
When this lifter is being used for the erection, renovation or demolishing of buildings
or other building constructions, the use of a falling safety device is required.
