 TL85 Hydraulic Vehicle Restraint System
Electro-hydraulic operation. Simplicity of design,
heavy-duty construction materials and no regular adjustments or lubrication
requirements put the TL85 Hydraulic Vehicle Restraint in front of more North
American loading docks.
Features
- non-impact ”swing-up” arm designed to confine a vehicles rear impact guard or ICC bar.
Vehicles remain safely stationed at the dock without time consuming and
uncertain chocking.
- Services the widest range of trucks with rear impact guards
to 29” (737mm) above ground and horizontal ranges to 12” (305mm) beyond the face
of the dock. Problems with bent ICC bars, lock-up from hook and impact design
restraints are eliminated.
- Engineered with the focus of minimizing regular maintenance requirements
resulting in significant savings over the total life cycle of the product.
Driver Communications Systems
These combinations of signal lights, controls and signage advise both vehicle
driver and dock attendant of safe/unsafe, park/depart conditions. High
visibility safety systems are available for automated, integrated and manual
control situations.
The system is authorized by a key switch on the main control station. The
communication system includes interior red and green indicator lights at the
interior control station as well as exterior red and green high visibility LED
and dual driver warning signs with a mirror image. The lighting system alerts
both the vehicle driver and dock attendant. as to the operating status of the
vehicle restraint.
In the rare event of a vehicle being without a proper ICC bar, the ICC sensing
system alerts the dock attendant and driver of an unsafe condition. In addition
the control station is housed in a NEMA 12 (oil, dust and water resistant)
enclosure and features an optional LED light bulb burn out indicator and audible
alarm to signal an unsafe condition.
