Easy to Operate
The U-Series Airbag Dock Leveler comes standard with a NEMA4X / IP65 rated single push button control for sequenced deck and lip operation. When activated, the air bag inflates, raising the deck. When the button is released, the bag deflates, allowing the deck to be smoothly over the bed trailer.
Structural Integrity
A minimum of six heavy-duty U-beam channels are available at the underside of the deck at dynamic impact points, preventing dishing and extending the life of the dock leveler.
The Power of Air
The high-volume, low-pressure air-lift system is an environmentally friendly alternative to oil-powered hydraulics. The air bag can operate in extreme temperature conditions and withstand pressure without over-inflating. Its polyvinyl-chloride-coated polyester fibers make the bag resistant to chemical or puncture damage.
Designed with Safety in Mind
The airbag dock leveler operates safely and easily under the toughest conditions: extreme temperature, heavy usage, and exposure to caustic substances. The deck flexes under load to allow a smooth cross-docking transition, minimizing the risk of worker injury and cargo or equipment damage. The fall-safe system provides additional protection by the free-fall platform.
