Overview

Built for hire fleets working oilfields

Hire fleets working the Permian Basin and other oilfield regions face an expensive, recurring problem: telehandler booms striking powerlines and overhead obstacles. Every contact means downtime, damaged equipment, electrocution risk and liability on a machine the rental company does not operate.

The Series 2H height limiter continually measures boom angle and telescopic extension, enforces a height ceiling and gives operators a simple touch screen that takes minutes to learn.

Key features

Simple to set, reliable every shift

Real-time height monitoring

Boom angle and telescopic extension are measured continually so height limits are never exceeded.

Manual or automatic limits

Key in a height limit, or position the boom at the required height and capture it automatically.

Touch-screen interface

A clear graphical interface and intuitive touch controls make it easy for any operator.

Key-switch override

An override mode is available through the key switch when height limits are not required.

Settings retained

Previous height limits are kept when the system is disengaged or the machine is powered down.

Fits every telehandler

Suitable for all kinds of telehandler, regardless of make, model or year.

How it works

How the Series 2H works

01

Measure

The system continually measures the angle of the boom together with the length of the telescopic extension.

02

Set

Operators key in a target height, or raise the boom to the required height and let the system capture it.

03

Restrict

While limits are engaged, the system enforces a height ceiling the boom cannot exceed, under powerlines or when lifting into buildings.

For rental companies

Why rental companies specify height limiters

Telehandlers working oilfield sites in Texas and across the Permian Basin face some of the highest rates of overhead-strike incidents, on machines operated by people the rental company does not employ.

Protect equipment you don't operate

Stop boom strikes before they happen, even when the operator is not yours. A single avoided powerline contact can pay for the system many times over.

Reduce downtime and repair costs

An incident can take a unit off rent for weeks. The Series 2H keeps machines on hire and earning.

Differentiate your fleet

Oilfield customers increasingly specify height-limited telehandlers in tenders. Equip your fleet and win more of that work.
