VL411LDC: #35162
SPECIFICATIONS
Model Number:
VL411LDC
Description:
Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, the VL411LDC lifter
employs vacuum to hold a load for lifting in the upright orientation.
Power Source:
12 volts DC, 10 amps (with Thomas pump) or 3 amps (with Dynaflo pump)
Battery Capacity:
7 amp-hours
Vacuum Pads:
Four 11" [28 cm] nominal diameter, lipped (Model G3370), standard rubber,
spring-mounted (¼" [7 mm] travel), with #60 filter screen
Pad Spread:
23½" x 58" [597 mm x 1474 mm] to outer edges
Load Capacity:
(rated at 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces
1
)
Per-Pad:
175 lbs [80 kg]
Maximum:
700 lbs [320 kg]
Lifter Weight:
60 lbs [27 kg]
Vacuum Pump:
Diaphragm type, 1 SCFM [28 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 pump
to re-engage.
Options:
See appendix for instructions about optional features.
Operating Elevation:
Maximum = 6000 feet [1828 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
