Planet-friendly lift for vehicles
August 1st 2008 A new planet-friendly
vehicle lift from Stertil Koni
is battery-powered, uses
biodegradable oil and a
state-of-the-art
communication system
developed from military
technology.
Envirolift incorporates a
column made from 98%
recycled material and runs
on deep-cycle, 100%
recyclable batteries,
recharged via a single-phase
power supply. Batteries are
automatically recharged as
the lift lowers, reducing
overall energy.
The lift features Panolin
hydraulic oil, a specialist
biodegradable oil that runs
in a closed hydraulic system
providing 95%+ efficiency.
The Envirolift works via a
ZigBee system, a low-power,
wireless communications
technology that reduces
data size and allows for
lower-cost network
construction. It will enable
the lift's columns to 'talk' to
one another via a system
that is said to be more
secure than the standard
Bluetooth technology. More articles from Stertil UK Ltd: |
