SPECIFICATIONS

Model Number:

MT49AC

Description:

Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, the MT49AC

lifter employs vacuum to hold a load for lifting, and it provides manual 90°

tilt movement for load manipulation.

Power Source:

See serial number plate for specific AC voltage, frequency and amperage.

Vacuum Pads:

Four 9" [23 cm] diameter (Model VPFS9), 55 durometer natural-

polybutadiene rubber, spring-mounted (¼" [7 mm] travel), with #60 filter

screen

Maximum Pad Spread:

23½" x 46½" [597 mm x 1184 mm] to outer edges

Load Capacity:

(rated at 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces

1

)

Per-Pad:

125 lbs [56.5 kg]

Maximum:

500 lbs [225 kg]

Lifter Weight:

88 lbs [40 kg]

Tilt Capability:

Manual, 90°; Latch engages when pad frame is in vertical orientation.

Vacuum Pump:

Rotary vane type, 4 SCFM [113 liters/minute] nominal airflow

or

Diaphragm type, 3 SCFM [85 liters/minute] nominal airflow

Vacuum Reserve Tank:

Vacuum reservoir helps prevent immediate vacuum loss in case of power

failure.

Vacuum Gauge:

Dial gauge indicates current vacuum level in positive inches of Hg and

negative kPa.

Vacuum Lift Light:

Green light is energized whenever vacuum level is sufficient for lifting
maximum load weight (higher than 16" Hg [-54 kPa]).

Options:

See appendix for instructions about optional features.

Maximum = 10,000 feet [3048 meters]

Operating Temperatures: 32° to 100° F [0° to 38° C]
Service Life:

This lifter is designed to have a service life of at least 20,000 lifting cycles,

when used and maintained as intended. Vacuum pads, filter elements and

other wear-out items are excluded; see MAINTENANCE and REPLACEMENT

PARTS LIST for more information.
