Test operation and initial acceptance
>
Lift a load with a surface that is fully impermeable to air. Leave the load suspended on the
lifting unit and observe the entire unit for hissing sounds to ensure that no leaks have occurred
during installation.
>
Lift a load of around 5 kg with a surface that is impermeable to air. Leave the load freely
suspended on the tube lifter and then switch off the vacuum pump. The load and lifting unit
should now slowly sink down to the floor. If this should not be the case, please contact our
Technical Sales Department.
>
Lift a load with a surface that is fully impermeable to air and that is the maximum permitted
weight for this model. See the "Troubleshooting" section if the load cannot be lifted.
>
After the FIPALIFT Smart tube lifter has been installed on a suitable crane system, a sign stating
the maximum permitted load must be attached to the control unit. The maximum permitted
load must be equal to the maximum load of the installed tube lifter and the maximum load of
the lifting system. Please note that these signs are not provided by FIPA.
