New Accessories for Enerpac Jack-Up System
29 October 2020Enerpac has announced new accessories for its JS-Series jack-up multi-point lifting system, including a new adjustable top barrel, bracing kits, and Base Frame Trolley System. The manufacturer says these accessories enhance the capabilities of the system.
A typical system set up includes four jack-up units positioned under each corner of a load. A load is lifted in increments as barrels are slid into the system and stacked, forming lifting towers. A Jack-Up System is operated and controlled by a computer control unit. Each unit’s lifting and lowering operations occur simultaneously; the computer control unit’s synchronous technology maintains the balance of the load.
The expanded capabilities include the ability to make fine adjustments to the starting height with the Enerpac adjustable top barrel. This base lifting unit comes with one top barrel and 3D swivel saddle. It includes a standard Enerpac HCRL series double-acting lock nut cylinder and can be operated with separate 700 bar (10,000 psi) pump. Designed for JS125, JS 250, and JS 500 models, it can be built into Jack-Up System on first purchase, or existing standard top barrels can be upgraded.
Enerpac says its bracing kits can lead to up to 50% higher lifts. Designed for the JS125 and JS250 models, the kits connect four towers and includes four mid barrels, four adjustable braces, and eight diagonal tension bars.
The Enerpac Base Frame Trolley System allows users to transport load horizontally. The system includes one trolley and is designed for the JS125 and JS250 models.
