The unit has a rubber support pad to suit gas bottles with diameters between 180mm to 450mm. The operator secures the cylinder against the pad using a ratchet and strap mechanism before lifting and manoeuvring it into place. The rubber pads provide additional grip between the cylinder and support pad ensuring the load is held securely throughout the handling operation. To detach the cylinder the ratchet mechanism is released, this is done by pulling the ratchet lever and rotating the handle forwards.

Manual hydraulic pump
Manual hydraulic pump
This machine makes use of a 13cc hydraulic hand pump to raise the load. Operators move the handle back and forth to pump hydraulic fluid to the lift ram from the tank. To lower the cylinder down a manual release handle is twisted anti-clockwise; this returns the hydraulic fluid back to the tank from the lift ram. We use only the highest-quality hydraulic components to ensure long-term reliability. Each hydraulic system is assembled by hand and hydraulic hoses are cleaned before use to ensure system cleanliness.
Chemical-resistant wheels
Chemical-resistant wheels
This machine is fitted with three wheels in total: two 160mm front wheels and a single 160mm rear steering wheel. All wheels fitted are aluminium centred and have a hard polyurethane tyre which is very robust. The wheels are resistant to oil making them ideal for use in harsh industrial environments. Due to the precision bearings used, these wheels make for a low rolling resistance when used on a flat and level floor.
ATEX / UKEX-certified model for zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 (optional)
ATEX / UKEX-certified model for zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 (optional)
Within certain industries, explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres exist; these areas are classified as ATEX / UKEX. We provide fully-certified 'Ex' rated cylinder lifters for use in these hazardous areas.
Our DTP08-150kg-R500-CA10-Ex is suitable for gas and dust classified spaces: Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22. The cylinder handler is manufactured to ensure electrical continuity, and a path to ground is always present. We supply our ATEX / UKEX units with a manufacturer’s Declaration of Conformity.
