Beacon Industries, Inc. a material handling Equipment Company is proud to present the HPK line of Loading Dock Levelers, which meets the strict requirements for a government institute establishing standards for the United States.\u00a0 Event ID: 6565<\/p>\n

The Beacon HPK hydraulic dock leveler<\/a> has passed and is certified with the MH 30.1 ANSI <\/a>Standard for the Safety, Performance and Testing of Dock Levelers Devices. The objective of the test is to perform dynamic and static loading testing. The dock leveler description was a four movement hydraulic dock leveler rated at 30,000 lbs capacity.<\/p>\n

The test description summary included a cyclic 30,000 lb. load applied at mid-span of the dock leveler through a 3\u201d wide by 1\u201d thick contact surface of material with 80 shore \u201cA\u201d hardness.\u00a0 The contact of the material extended across the full width of the loading dock leveler.\u00a0 The loads were applied and removed 50,000 times.<\/p>\n

Standard Beacon HPK Hydraulic Dock Leveler, rated for 30,000 lb dynamic force.<\/p><\/div>\n

In addition, a cyclic 30,000 lb load was applied directly over the juncture of the lip and platform of the dock leveler through a 3\u201d wide by 1\u201d thick contact surface of material with 80 shore \u201cA\u201d hardness.\u00a0 The contact of the material extended across the full width of the loading dock leveler.\u00a0 The loads were applied and removed 50,000 times.<\/p>\n

Finally, a 15,000 lb load was applied through an 8\u201d wide by 3\u201d long by 1\u201d contact surface of material with 80 shore \u201cA\u201d hardness footprint centered at the midpoint of the unreinforced section.<\/p>\n

The HPK hydraulic leveler has been manufactured and in the field starting in the early 1950\u2019s.\u00a0 However this specific 30,000 HPK dock leveler testing was accomplished between December 29, 2009 and January 2010.<\/p>\n

The test model had negligible, permanent deformation (less than the 0.060\u201d allowed by the ANSI specifications).\u00a0 This also pertains to the localized, 15,000 lb loading of the deck plate where as much as 0.250\u201d distortion is allowed by ANSI.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
