HOW THE RL3500S RACK LIFTER WORKS

The RL3500S consists of two units working in tandem – one on each end of the server cabinet. Both units have a foot which is placed under the cabinet as a lifting platform.  The cabinet is then strapped between the two sections. The operator rotates the handle on one of the lifts to raise the cabinet slightly off the floor.  The process is repeated on the other lift until the load clears the floor.  The frictionless ball screw technology enables anyone to effortlessly lift up to 5000 pounds/ 2268 kg.

During transport the weight is evenly spread across eight dual non marking antistatic castor wheels to distribute the load on raised floors.   Once the desired position is achieved the load is lowered to the floor and the units removed.  Optional Shoe and upper Pinch Blocks for Cabinet Side or 31″/79cm cabinet widths available at time of order.
