Sara supplies dock levels to candle company
Sara/Loading Bay Specialists
Doc levellers
Candle manufacturer Partylite has installed five dock levellers supplied by Sara LBS into its main European manufacturing plant in Barrow, Cumbria.
Each dock leveller is constructed from high tensile steel, with the platform using an 8mm Dubar non-skid steel plate.
The levellers are supported by purpose-made longitudinal angles hinging at the rear on pivot shafts manufactured from ST52 grade steel, giving each leveller a loading capacity of up to 10,000kg per single axle load rated as required by EN 1398.
The dock levellers are powered using a 1.1kW electric motor and are delivered with a standard operating control panel.
Full composite control panels can also be supplied to incorporate door controls, as well as inflatable dock shelters and traffic lights.
There is a range of options that can be added, including: special colour finishes (red comes as standard), automatic return to dock level, LED traffic lights and traffic-management systems.
All levellers comply with BS EN 1398 standards.
