Telescopic Lip
The ZEUS <=> HANDLING dock leveller is designed to carry the load and produced to your exact requirements and fully comply to European regulations BSEN1398.
Our bespoke Telescopic lip dock leveller can be manufactured to suit any new or existing formed pit,
We produce the following configurations: standard pit type, suspended frame type, cast in concrete type and also a free standing version.
Features include hydraulic hose break cartridge, Integral safety prop, Integral toe guards, and hazard marking to sides of platform. The platform deck is designed to flex laterally by 100mm to cater for uneven trailer canter whilst retaining its integrity.
The ZEUS <=> HANDLING electro/hydraulic Telescopic lip dock leveller is powered by a motor rated between 0.75 and 1.1 Kw dependent on size of dock leveller, requiring a power supply of 415v 3 Phase and Earth.
The control voltage is 24v via a transformer installed in the wall mounted control panel which has a IP55 rating.

Deck Construction
The ZEUS <=> HANDLING dock leveller deck system is manufactured with 8/10mm steel durbar plate with steel strengthening ribs welded to the durbar plate longitude, the platform is designed to canter with the trailer but remaining its integrity.
Lip Construction
The ZEUS <=> HANDLING dock leveller lip system is manufactured with 12.5mm durbar plate to the 250mm leading edge with 8mm durbar plate to the remainder of the projection of the lip, 10no longitude steel fingers welded to the underside of the lip durbar plate which locate with the deck ribs. Also welded to underside of lip durbar would be the adjustable parking legs which coincide with the parking legs of the base frame.
Base Frame Construction
The ZEUS <=> HANDLING base frames are manufactured in three configurations;
Standard pit mounted type: Where the dock leveller is installed into a prefabricated concrete pit with steel kerb angle sections in place, The dock leveller sits on the pit floor and is welded to rear and front sections.
Suspended type: Where the dock leveller is installed on top of the pre-installed concrete pit with recess kerb angle set. As the name suggest this system is used where tail lifts are used to allow a recess to the underside of dock leveller to stow tail lift.
Cast in type: Where the dock leveller is placed onto a flat pit floor and fixed then concrete is poured around the dock leveller, the leveller is supplied with a cable lance so is ready to operate when civil works are complete, NOTE: Kerb angle sets are not required for this configuration.
Operation
When the lift button is pressed the deck will rise until the full height is reached at this point the telescopic lip can be activated, when the telescopic lip is fully extended the timer will time out allowing the deck to descend onto the parked trailer. The deck will move vertically up and down with the trailer movement in its float mode. Following the loading/unloading has taken place to park the dock leveller into its ready state the lift button is to be pressed this will activate the deck to rise then the retract button can be pressed, when lip is fully retracted the timer will then time out allowing the deck to descend to its parked ready state.
