ANVER’s
Battery Powered
Vac-Pack Vacuum Generators contains the same features as the standard
Electric Powered Vac-Pack Vacuum Generators but include a rechargeable 12 volt DC battery, making
it suitable for handling non-porous loads. |
Some Information about Battery Powered Vacuum Lifters:
| When other
alternatives won't work When a Mechanical lifter will not work and electricity or compressed air is not readily available, battery powered lifters can make it possible to handle a load with vacuum. Battery powered lifters have been used in the glass industry for many years, primarily for the occasional field installation job. Putting in glass windows into a store front for example is an ideal application. Fine for worksite Glass Handling Battery Lifters work best on smooth, non-porous loads like glass because the lifter vacuum attachment can be nearly airtight, making it possible to use small, low power consumption, fractional horsepower vacuum pumps with small gel-cell batteries. Battery powered lifters are generally not suitable for semi-porous or porous loads as these lifters require considerably larger, higher powered vacuum pumps with correspondingly larger, massive battery arrays. Our larger BAE1 battery Vac-Pack uses a 3.2 CFM Pump and a 75 amp hour battery which is fairly large. Going above that gets expensive fast. |
OK for smooth stone handling but
marginal for rough stone. If, however, you need a
lifter in the field, a battery unit is worth considering. Battery powered lifters are best suited for jobsite installation work in the glass and polished
stone industries, as forklift attachments, and for other specific applications where
a power source is not available.
Battery lifters are not Production Grade
nor recommended for the Metals or other Sheet and Plate Industries |
All Battery Lifters are slower to attach require more maintenance and are more expensive. A Battery pumps CFM Flow
and HP vs a standard electric or air powered vacuum lifter is low. In
general battery powered units have less vacuum flow and do not achieve
as high a vacuum. They attach much slower even when brand new. |
If you are considering a battery
system make sure you are informed. Get the specifications and compare them
to a standard lifter. Our years of experience tells us that a standard
lifter is usually a better choice (cheaper, faster and more reliable) in all but
a few applications.
