The SLL-60 Static Line Lifter supports the static line with the same crane being used to hold multiple energized conductors. This frees up bucket trucks or other equipment previously dedicated to holding the static line, thereby allowing linemen to make use of the equipment to perform other functions. The SLL-60 also maintains the static line’s relative position above and ahead of the conductors.
The SLL-60 has a 1,000-pound (450kg) vertical lift capacity, is 60 in (1.5m) long and features angular adjustments to meet the needs of various applications. The jib is constructed of continuous roving, filament-wound fiberglass and includes an additional finish over the fiberglass gel coat for added durability. The SLL-60 is tested to 13.5 kV and exceeds the applicable requirements of ANSI 892.2 and ASME B30.5.
The lifter requires a custom-made steel attachment adapter custom-made for the crane it mounts on, which is included in the package.
Development of the SLL-60 was initiated through a request from a leading electrical utility company, with the product concept derived from actual line crews in the field.
