Description

The vacuum based load lifting attachment OKTOPUS® GL-M 8000 DES So 430 R EA B24 P is designed to handle large-sized glass panes and window elements with a maximum weight of up to 8,000 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 hydraulically be rotated endless by 360° and tilted by 15°. A counterweight balancer with motor-driven counterweights serves for balancing the load. The operating and display elements are arranged ergonomically and allow comfortably positioning and moving the load. 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. Even in case of complete energy breakdown, vacuum remains in each suction pad for at least 5 minutes. In this way a secure lowering of the load can be ensured at all times.
