FLEXR-HV11DC: #35037
SPECIFICATIONS
Description:
Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, the FLEXR-HV11DC
lifters employ vacuum to hold a load for lifting in the flat orientation.
Model Number:
FLEXR4HV11DC (w/4 Vacuum Pads)
FLEXR6HV11DC (w/6 Vacuum Pads)
Load Capacity:
(rated at 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces
1
)
Per-Pad:
300 lbs [136 kg]
300 lbs [136 kg]
Maximum:
1200 lbs [545 kg]
1500 lbs [680 kg]
Lifter Weight:
184 lbs [84 kg]
204 lbs [93 kg]
Power Source:
12 volts DC, 26 amps
Battery Capacity:
26 amp-hours
Vacuum Pads:
2
10" [25 cm] nominal diameter, lipped (Model HV11), 55 standard rubber, spring-
mounted (¾" [20 mm] travel), with #60 filter screen
Pad Spread:
(to outer edges)
Maximum:
41" x 70¾" [1041 x 1797 mm]
Minimum:
23" x 54¼" [584 x 1378 mm]
Vacuum Pumps:
2 diaphragm type, 1 SCFM [28 liters/minute] nominal airflow
or
1 diaphragm type, 3 SCFM [85 liters/minute] nominal airflow
Vacuum Reserve Tank:
Vacuum reservoir helps prevent immediate vacuum loss in case of power failure
and extends battery life by reducing pump cycles required to maintain vacuum.
Vacuum Gauge:
Dial gauge indicates current vacuum level in positive inches of Hg and negative
kPa.
Low Vacuum Warning Light: Red light is energized until vacuum level is sufficient to lift maximum load
weight (higher than 16" Hg [-54 kPa]) and whenever vacuum loss causes pumps
to re-engage.
Options:
See separate instructions about optional features.
Operating Elevation:
Maximum = 7000 feet [2133 meters]
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 D
