Vestil Manufacturing DRUM-LRT-DC-SCL Drum Lifter Scale 550 Lb

Product Description

The VESTIL MANUFACTURING DRUM-LRT-DC-SCL is a fully powered drum lifter, rotator, and transporter built for industrial facilities that handle 55-gallon drums. The unit runs on a high-torque 24-volt DC drive system powered by two 12-volt lead-acid batteries with an integral charger and battery level gauge. An integrated scale with plus or minus 0.5 pound accuracy and automatic shutoff makes it possible to weigh drums at the point of handling without a separate scale station. Solid steel construction supports a 550-pound capacity. Installed by material handling technicians or maintenance personnel, this unit eliminates manual drum handling and reduces strain-related risk on the floor.

The DRUM-LRT-DC-SCL is designed for use in warehouses, chemical storage areas, manufacturing floors, and any facility that regularly lifts, weighs, and repositions 55-gallon drums. The powered drive handles transport across flat surfaces, while powered rotation lets the operator tilt or pour drum contents without manual effort. The scale head is positioned at an elevated height for easy reading, and the ergonomic handle includes a safety-enhanced emergency remote function and an audible horn for proximity alerts in active work areas.
