GENERAL DESCRIPTION

All POWERAMP® EH Series dock levelers incorporate the use of hydraulics to raise and lower both the platform and lip. A single push button activates a hydraulic pump for operating both lip and hoist cylinders. Systems, LLC is an active member of Loading Dock Equipment Manufacturers (LODEM), a product section of the Material Handling Industry. Unit conforms to OSHA, U.S. Department of Commerce Standard CS-202-56 and is manufactured in compliance with the American National Standard of Safety Performance and Testing of Dock Leveling Devices (ANSI) MH 30.1. Unit manufactured by Systems, LLC.

CONSTRUCTION

The platform is constructed of ¼” thick 4-way high tensile 50,000 minimum yield A572 steel safety tread-plate. Platform is reinforced and supported by full-length roll formed “C” channels (25,000 and 30,000 lb Comparative Industry Rating (CIR)), structural “C” channels (35,000 & 40,000 lb CIR), and a combination of structural “C” channels and “I” beams (45,000, 50,000 and 60,000 lb CIR). Front and rear header plate is of either ½” x 7” or ½” x 8” hot rolled steel. POWERAMP EH Series lips are made of 4-way safety tread-plate, the 25,000 lb CIR are 1/2” thick, the 30,000, 35,000 and 40,000 lb CIR are 5/8” thick, and the 45,000 50,000 and 60,000 lb CIR are 3/4” thick. The standard lip length is 16” on all capacities except the 60,000 CIR which is 18”. Hinge tubes are 1 3/4” OD x 5/16” wall, 1 7/8” x 3/8” wall, 2 1/8” x ½” wall, or 2 5/8” x 3/4” wall depending upon CIR. All lip hinge pins are 1” M1044 steel. Steel lip gusset are standard on 50,000 and 60,000 lb CIR models. Steel header gussets are standard on all models 35,000 lb CIR and above. All platforms are designed to compensate for up to 4” of canted truck beds.

HYDRAULICS

Platform is raised by an inverted hydraulic cylinder, all hydraulic hoses are routed under the leveler platform, away from debris. Hoist cylinder is hard chrome-plated single acting design with 3” OD rod and 3 ½” ID bore. Hoist cylinder is equipped with a velocity safety stop to limit free fall of loaded platform to 3”(±1”). Lip operation is controlled by a hard chrome-plated cylinder having a 2 ½” ID bore and is fully yieldable. Elevated, frame mounted pump and motor assembly keeps clear of debris accumulation in pit.

STANDARD OPERATIONAL FEATURES

The EH Series Leveler is controlled remotely from wall mounted control panel. An array of optional control panel features are available. Lip keepers welded to frame members provide nighttime security and cross-traffic support. Full operating range toe guards are provided as standard. Maintenance prop with ‘Lock-out Tag-out’ capability is provided as standard. Each leveler is shipped with two (2) (B410-14) 4½” thick x 10”h x 14”w laminated bumpers as standard on all capacities except the 60,000 CIR which gets 6” thick bumpers.

ELECTRICAL

Hydraulic pump motor shall be 1½ HP TEFC at 115v single phase. Optional 3 Phase motors are available, consult factory. Electrical control panel is non-metallic NEMA 4 enclosure for single push-button or NEMA 4X for iDock™ Controls. All electrical components, connections and wiring are UL listed or recognized.
