Information

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

All POWERAMP® LHP Series hydraulic 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 1/4” thick 4-way high tensile 50,000 minimum yield A572 steel safety tread-plate. Platform is reinforced and supported by full-length 6” roll formed “C” channels for 25,000 and 35,000 lb CIR and 6” structural “C” channels for 40,000 lb. CIR capacity units. Front header plate is 1/2” x 7” hot rolled steel. POWERAMP LHP Series lips are made of 4-way safety tread-plate, the 25,000 lb CIR is 1/2” thick and the 35,000 and 40,000 lb CIR are 5/8” thick. The standard lip length is 16” on all capacities. Hinge tubes are 1 3/4” OD x 5/16” wall, 1 7/8” x 3/8” wall, or 2 1/8” x 1/2” wall depending upon CIR. All lip hinge pins are 1” M1044 steel. Steel joist gussets welded to front header are standard on all roll form “C” channels. All platforms are designed to compensate for up to 4” of canted truck beds.

HYDRAULICS

Platform is raised by hydraulic cylinder, all hydraulic hoses are elevated under the leveler platform, away from debris. Hoist cylinder is hard chrome-plated single acting design with 2 1/2” OD rod and 3” 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” ID bore and is fully yieldable. Elevated, frame mounted pump and motor assembly keeps clear of debris accumulation in pit.
