Convenient Low Level Access Platform

Power Towers are compact safe and cost-effective pieces of low level access equipment. They feature large work platforms that provide a more convenient working space for one person at height. They also cover a large area without having to be moved as often as other platforms. Power Towers are a practical and efficient alternative to large podiums and scaffold towers. They are push around machines for indoor use, with an electric powered rising basket. The platform can be lifted to 3.1m height which offers a fantastic maximum working height of 5.1m.

The versatile Power Tower is ideal for anyone working at height within any industry. They provide a large work platform suitable for lifting an individual plus their tools and equipment. The 1520mm x 750mm platform is more than 50% larger than the closest alternative. However, these Power Towers remain slim enough to guide along corridors and pass through standard single doorways. These low level access towers can be used for a better reach in open spaces like warehouses, factories, and construction sites. They are also ideal for more crowded sites such as offices, shops, and schools, etc. They are excellent low level access platforms that can be used for installation, repair, inspection, maintenance, and more. Shopfitters, electricians, ductwork installers, painters & decorators, builders, and more can benefit from using a Power Tower.

The Power Tower provides a safe and convenient low level access platform for working at height. The tower is CE marked and fully complies with EN280 and all relevant European machinery directives. The lifting arms are part of a heavy-duty, fabricated steel superstructure with stainless steel components, bushed pivots, and a durable powder-coated finish. These features ensure the tower provides incredible strength and resilience in demanding industries. The hydraulic circuit is fully fail-safe with a check valve on the lift cylinder. The platform wheels have been redesigned and are now improved heavy-duty Auto-Lok wheels. When elevation is engaged, these wheels will lock automatically to provide a secure base that will not surf. There is also an emergency descent function and an audible descent and ascent drive alarm to alert anyone that is working close to the tower that the platform is moving. As there is no need for additional outriggers to stabilise the Power Tower, it is safer in busy, fast-paced working environments. The latched entrance gate and handrails are at the correct heights and dimensions to prevent falls.

The Power Tower is incredibly easy to use. The unit is designed to be pushed into location, and the swivel castors and brake wheels make it easy to steer. The base unit features ground controls and emergency controls as well as an emergency stop button. This panel is useful if whoever is using the work platform can no longer operate the controls themselves. The platform controls are simple push buttons that raise and lower the platform at a safe speed, and there is also a second emergency stop button in case the basic controls fail.

Please note: A Push Around Vertical Course (IPAF-PAV) is recommended by IPAF to make sure all operatives are trained & competent.
