Construction & Design Specifications...
FlorLIFT MULTI-LEVEL handicapped lift is a hydraulically driven totally enclosed, vertical lifting device on a cantilevered platform used to provide secure, economical and safe transportation for handicapped persons from one floor to another. Designs can incorporate service from simple two level structures up to any number of multilevel applications as permitted.
The INTRICATE MAST FRAME, which can be either Free-Standing or Bolt to Wall, is constructed of electrically welded heavy structural steel. Any application that requires travel of more than six feet will have bolt type splice section to reduce overall mast height for shipping and ease of installation.
FS - Free-Standing means that the structural mast frame will be designed to support cab reactions imposed by the platform cab and its load.
BTW - Bolt-To-Wall means the structural mast frame will be designed to support cab reactions; however, pull-out forces at the wall brackets necessitate construction at the load bearing wall strong enough to accommodate the reactions imposed thereon.
The PLATFORM CARRIAGE travels within the mast frame rails. Four (4) solid steel guide wheels with sealed roller bearings and side thrust cam rolls are useful for efficient and smooth operation.
The PLATFORM DECK intricately bolts to the carriage. This aids in shipment and installation. The support legs are structural steel channel with a heavy gauge steel sheet deck.
The PLATFORM CAB encloses the deck on the sides and top. The cab comes standard with a hatch and light. Entrance/exit can be on one, two, or three sides. (See cab configurations.) Protection at the openings is by an EZy-Roll folding gate equipped with an electrical interlock (to prevent operation of unit if open). Standard construction cab designs are available, such as wood paneling, Formica/Wilson Art panels, egg crate roof, special railings or ornamental trim.
Each Multi-Level handicapped lift is individually designed to meet your unique application whether its use will be in new construction or in renovating an existing building. FLORLIFT can solve your handicapped accessibility needs.
The HYDRAULIC DRIVE SYSTEM raised or lowers the platform cab. This is achieved via a positive displacement, full rod, hydraulic ram. The Carriage is suspended by two (2) independent steel roller chains riding over a heavy duty, sprocketed equalizing head assembly. The design is a 2:1 ratio so that the platform's travel is twice the cylinder stroke. This design allows the ram to be completely housed within the mast frame, thus eliminating the need for a costly submerged plunger or deep pit. The hydraulic pumping unit is completely self-contained and remote, operating on 115/208/230 volt, single phase. The system utilizes state of the art components for sale, trouble-free operation. Since the hydraulic ram is single acting, the pump-motor is only to run in the rising mode. Lowering is a gravity function and is accomplished simply by opening a solenoid valve. The internal check valve will hold the cab firm at landings. In the event of a power failure, the built in emergency lowering device can be used to safely lower the cab.
The ELECTRICAL CONTROLLER and landing stations control the rising and lowering of the platform cab. The main controller houses the magnetic contactor, control relays, and transformer. All controls operate on a 24 volt AC safety circuit. Standard cab station for a two (2) level application will be keyswitch controlled on/off pushbutton operated up/down/stop/alarm flush type mounted on the back cab panel. Landing stations are keyswitch controlled on/off push-button operated call only for flush mounting. All control functions are constant pressure (deadmen). Included are upper and lower terminal limit switches. Many optional controls and stations are available, such as multi-level call and send, automatic self maintained, illuminated buttons, etc.
The FALLING DECK SAFETY DEVICE is a standard feature on all FlorLIFT Multi-Level Lifts. In the unlikely event that both suspension chains were to become slack or brake simultaneously, the quick acting safeties, which are two (2) independent serrated braking cams, will engage, driving the hardened teeth deep into the mast rails holding the platform cab in place.
The SLACK CHAIN LIMIT SWITCH is another standard safety device incorporated into the Multi-Level Lift. If either or both suspension chains become slack, the limit switch will close the lowering solenoid holding the ram in place not allowing it to bottom out.
The design construction of the FlorLIFT ML-102-TE lift is unsurpassed in its field. Many years of manufacturing practices have refined this product insuring the user many years of safe, trouble-free operation.
Multi-Level Pumping Unit Requirements: Generally it is recommended that the electric/hydraulic pumping unit be located at the lower level behind the mast frame bearing wall. However, if the application requires an alternate location, the pumping unit can be located anywhere within the location of the shaft. Note: Hydraulic feed lines from the base of the hydraulic ram and pumping unit greater than 10'-0" will need to be hard piped.
Multi-Level Electrical Requirements: Standard lifts operate on a 1 HP dual voltage single phase motor and require a main feed disconnect. For best efficiency it is recommended that the motor's high voltage be used. A secondary line on 115 Volt 15 amp dedicated breaker is also needed for the lowering solenoid, alarm bell, and cab lighting. Note: Electrical control [panel can be shipped loose for wall mounting.
