for construction site use according to DIN EN 13155

Use

Handling flat glass panes and window elements. The suction areas of the elements to be lifted must be air-impermeable, have to have an even and clean surface and must not be covered with protective film.

Hoist

Truck-mounted crane, mini crane

Fastening

at the crane hook

Description

The vacuum based load lifting attachment OKTOPUS® GL-M 1400 is designed for handling large-sized glass panes and window elements up to a maximum weight of 1,400 kg. It is equipped with a dual-circuit vacuum system for construction site use according to DIN EN 13155. The crane eye of the device allows attaching the device to an existing hoist (provided by the customer). The suction frame can electrically be rotated endless by 360° and hydraulically tilted by 90°.

Operation with cable remote control (optional radio remote control) as well as the ergonomically arranged display and signaling elements allow positioning and moving the load comfortably. The electrically operated vacuum pump is supplied with energy by a 24 V DC battery system. Deviations from the nominal condition are indicated by optical and acoustical warning devices. In case of complete failure of energy supply, vacuum remains in the suction pads for at least 5 minutes. In this way a secure lowering of the load can be ensured at all times.

The integrated blow-off function allows compressed-air supported and by that a quicker release of the suctioned load.
