Specific Pros of the P200
Versatility: The P200’s adaptability allows it to be used in various industries and working environments, making it a versatile solution for elevated access needs.
Stability: Equipped with stabilising features and frontwards extending outriggers, the P200 ensures a stable working platform even on uneven or sloping ground, promoting safety during operations.
Compact Size: The compact design enables it to operate in tight spaces, making it suitable for confined work areas and allowing for easy manoeuvrability through narrow passages.
Precise Controls: With multifunction electric controls, this Palfinger unit offers precise manoeuvring, enhancing productivity and ease of operation while ensuring accurate movements of the platform.
Multiple Stabilisation Options: The P200 provides three choices for platform stabilisation, catering to different working environments and allowing for optimum performance while maintaining a compact size. Before using the automatic stabilisation, the operator decides whether to extend both outrigger arms to required position. The automatic stabilisation cycle continues until two conditions are satisfied: The measured inclination of the frame fits with the set value in the inclinometer and both axes are not any longer in contact with the ground. After that, the process stops automatically, and safe work can begin.
The P200 platform has proven its worth as a reliable and efficient solution for elevated access. With its flexibility, stability, compact size, precise controls, and multiple stabilization options, the P200 serves a wide range of industries, from construction to facilities management. Embracing the advantages of the P200 can unlock new levels of productivity, safety, and effectiveness in accessing elevated regions across various sectors.
