The lifting platform for yachts is designed to lift vessels from the water for winter storage, repairs, and other purposes. Using the platform significantly extends the vessel’s lifespan, protecting the hull from darkening and other negative effects caused by prolonged water exposure.
Owning a yacht lift allows you to spend more time operating your boat and less time on cleaning and maintenance. The use of lifts is especially valuable during winter storage, as it keeps the vessel safe from ice and spring ice flows. The yacht elevator is engineered to operate under conditions corresponding to placement category I per GOST 15150-69 and GOST 15543-70.
Operating Conditions
- Ambient temperature range: -10°C to +40°C;
- The pumping station must be shielded from direct sunlight and precipitation;
- Platform protection level: IP13 per GOST 14254-80.
Principles of Operation
- The yacht elevator performs vertical linear motion, driven by executive mechanisms—hydraulic cylinders and tackle blocks. The hydraulic cylinders are powered by an electro-hydraulic system connected to a pumping station and control panel.
- Platform movement begins with the press of a button and stops immediately when the button is released. This control mechanism enhances safety during operation.
- Synchronization of the hydraulic cylinders is achieved by monitoring the rotation of rollers located in both mechanism boxes. The synchronization unit is built using the “OVEN” component base.
