Dock Levellers

Atlas Range Dock Levellers

For over two decades Chase has been designing and building quality dock levellers without compromise which has resulted in an enviable reputation for the extensive range of rugged and reliable hinged and telescopic lip dock levellers. In use, a dependable electro-hydraulic system provides total control at the push of a button for safe and precise control. The entire dock leveller range also fully conforms to the current European standards for dock levellers, EN 1398.

Our dock levellers are designed to maximise uptime of your loading bays. This combined with our planned maintenance support will give you a total life cost significantly better than alternatives that may initially appear cheaper solutions. Our dock levellers have a reputation for longevity and reliable service.

Features of the Atlas range dock levellers include:

  • All models are of steel construction and incorporate specially selected materials such as anti-slip deck and lip plates with high grade steels for hinge bushes and fulcrum pins.
  • Specific factors have been considered within the design of the leveller support frame to ensure that the loads transferred from the deck are correctly distributed to minimise long term fatigue.
  • The design of the deck permits limited diagonal torsion movement without fatigue to its structural integrity. This will enable loading/unloading of canted vehicle beds.
  • The electro-hydraulic system is powered by a motor rated between 0.75 and 1.1 kw depending on leveller size, requiring a supply voltage of 415/440V 3 phase and earth.
  • The control voltage is 24 volt via the transformer housed within the wall-mounted control box which offers protection to IP55.
  • Corrosion resistance is minimised with a high specification rust inhibiting paint.
  • Pit sitting or suspended frame - for tail-lift accommodation.
