MTCL8HV11FDC: #35079

SPECIFICATIONS

Model Number:

MTCL8HV11FDC

Description:

Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, the MTCL8HV11FDC lifter

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

manipulation.

Power Source:

12 volts DC, 8 amps

Battery Capacity:

35 amp-hours

Vacuum Pads:

Eight 10" [25 cm] nominal diameter, lipped with closed-cell foam rings for applications on

rough or textured surfaces (Model HV11F), low-marking rubber, spring-mounted (¾" [20
mm] travel), with #60 filter screen

Pad Spread:

1

(to outer edges)

Load Capacity:

1

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

)

Per-Pad:

150 lbs [68 kg]

Maximum:

700 lbs [320 kg] with 6 or 8 vacuum pads in use

Lifter Weight:

245 lbs [112 kg]

With Extensions:

360 lbs [164 kg]

Tilt Capability:

Manual, 90°; Latch engages automatically when pad frame reaches vertical or horizontal

position (if desired)

Dual Vacuum System:

2 vacuum system circuits allow the lifter to maintain the vacuum level in one circuit even if an

unexpected vacuum loss occurs in the other one (eg, due to load breakage).

Vacuum Pumps:

2 diaphragm type, 1 SCFM [28 liters/minute] nominal airflow

Vacuum Reserve Tanks:

2 vacuum reservoirs help prevent immediate vacuum loss in case of power failure and extend

battery life by reducing pump cycles required to maintain vacuum.

Vacuum Gauges:

2 dial gauges indicate current vacuum level in positive inches of Hg and negative kPa.

Vacuum Lift Lights:

2 green lights are energized whenever vacuum level is sufficient for lifting maximum load

weight (higher than 16" Hg [-54 kPa]).

Low Vacuum Warning Buzzer: Maximum Alarm Volume = 103 dBA at 2 ft [60 cm]. While the lifter is powered up, an

audible alarm warns the operator whenever vacuum is not sufficient for lifting the maximum
load weight.

Options:

Available with Model EO8RC3 - Remote Control System. This option features a radio

transmitter and receiver that can activate apply and release functions at distances up to 250

ft [76 m]. The system uses either a 310-320 or a 433-434 MHz signal, depending on
requirements in your geographical location. See separate instructions about other options.

Operating Elevation:

Maximum = 6000 ft [1828 m]

Operating Temperatures:

32° to 104° F [0° to 40° 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. For the

INSTRUCTIONS manual only when requirements of a CE Standard are different from

requirements of other standards that also apply to this vacuum lifter. CE requirements are mandatory in geographical areas

where CE Standards apply, but may be optional in other locations.
