Electro-hydraulic dock leveler RH12B

swing-lip

The 2,000x2,560 [mm] RH12B is an electrohydraulic dock leveller with a swing lip. The installation of the dock leveller and the preparation of the dock pit are very simple, as this model features a self-supporting design. The dock dimensions and the installation method were designed so as to enable its installation in standard prefabricated dock pits with an undercut to accommodate the tail lift. The installation width of the dock pit for installing the dock leveller is 2,060-2,085 [mm]. The deck is moved with two hydraulic actuators (the swing lip is moved by a separate actuator). The deck is made of sheet 8 [mm] thick, swing lip 15 [mm] thick, grade S235JR. The dock leveller is provided with longitudinal and lateral reinforcement made of high-strength, grade S355NL steel. The rear part of the deck is attached with three hinges. Operation The dock leveller is operated with a single button. When the button is pressed, the deck is lifted from the home position and the lip is extended when the highest position is reached. When the button is released, the deck is automatically lowered until the swing lip rests on the vehicle cargo floor. Safety features • fully hydraulic “emergency stop” which uses a safety valve to block the hoses in case of rupture, • emergency switch with switch-on interlock, • side foot guard plates, • lip hold on the front beam in the home position (for reinforcement during lateral movement), • yellow and black warning stripes, • robust service support beam, • thermal relay motor protection.
