Description

Reid Lifting 2000kg PortaGantry (2879-4079mm): Agile Power for Diverse Lifts

The Reid Lifting 2000kg PortaGantry, configured with the "Tall" A-frame, offers an excellent balance of high lifting capacity and adjustable height, making it an extremely adaptable solution for material handling and safety applications. Its lightweight aluminium construction allows for easy manual assembly and transport, providing flexible lifting capabilities where permanent overhead systems are not feasible or available.

Features

  • 2000 kg (2 Tonne) Goods Lifting Capacity: Engineered to safely lift substantial loads up to 2,000 kg, making it suitable for a wide array of equipment, machinery components, construction materials, and other heavy items.
  • Adjustable Height Range (2879mm - 4079mm): The "Tall" A-frame configuration provides a highly versatile height range for the lifting eye, from a minimum of 2,879 mm up to a maximum of 4,079 mm. This extensive adjustability allows for precise positioning of loads and adaptability to various site conditions and headroom requirements, typically in 200mm increments.
  • Personnel Lifting & Fall Protection (WLL up to 1000kg / 5 Persons): In addition to goods lifting, this PortaGantry is certified for personnel lifting up to 1000 kg (depending on exact configuration) and can function as a reliable overhead anchor point for fall protection for up to 5 persons. This significantly enhances safety in work-at-height or confined space rescue scenarios.
  • Lightweight Aluminium Construction: Expertly manufactured from high-grade aluminium, the PortaGantry is remarkably lightweight relative to its strength. This characteristic facilitates easy manual transport and assembly (often requiring only four bolts), eliminating the need for heavy lifting equipment during setup.
  • Manually Assembled in Minutes: Designed for rapid deployment, the complete system can be assembled by a small team quickly and efficiently, without the need for complex tools or specialized machinery, thereby enhancing operational efficiency.
  • EN795:2012 & ATEX Certified: Fully compliant with EN795:2012 standards for anchorage devices, ensuring the highest level of safety for fall protection. It is also ATEX certified (Zone 2 as standard, Zone 1 optional), making it suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres
  • Versatile Beam Length Options: The PortaGantry system is modular. While the A-frame dictates the height, it can be combined with a range of beam lengths (e.g., from 2.5 meters up to 8.4 meters or more, depending on specific model and configuration) to suit different span requirements.
  • Interchangeable Components: The A-frames and beams are interchangeable within the PortaGantry range, offering excellent modularity and allowing users to reconfigure systems to meet diverse operational needs.
  • Ergonomic 360° Swivel-Locking Castors: Equipped with high-quality, 360° swivel-locking castors as standard, enabling easy manoeuvrability around the workspace. Options for directional lock or pneumatic castors may also be available for specific terrain or operational needs, sometimes allowing movement under load.
  • Anodised for Corrosion Resistance: The aluminium components are anodised, providing enhanced protection against corrosion and wear. This makes the gantry suitable for aggressive environments and facilitates easy cleaning, including for "clean room" applications.
  • Integrated Ratchet Raise and Lower System: For safe and controlled height adjustment, a robust ratchet system is often integrated, allowing for precise raising and lowering of the gantry legs.
  • Supplied with Masterlink Trolley: Typically comes complete with a Masterlink Trolley, ensuring compatibility and readiness for immediate use with a variety of lifting equipment (e.g., chain hoists, wire rope hoists).

Applications

The Reid Lifting 2000kg PortaGantry (2879-4079mm) is exceptionally versatile and finds extensive use in:

  • Construction Sites: Lifting and lowering heavy building materials, machinery, and pre-fabricated elements (within its 2-tonne capacity).
  • Maintenance & Repair: Ideal for machinery overhaul in workshops, factories, and remote locations where permanent lifting solutions are unavailable.
  • Confined Space Entry & Rescue: Providing a critical overhead anchor point for personnel access, retrieval, and rescue in confined spaces like manholes, tanks, and pits.
  • Water Treatment Facilities: Lifting pumps, valves, and other equipment in often corrosive or restricted environments.
  • Utilities & Energy Sector: Supporting maintenance tasks in power plants, substations, and other energy infrastructure.
  • Clean Room Environments: The anodised finish makes it suitable for environments requiring high levels of hygiene.
  • Marine & Offshore: Its corrosion resistance is beneficial for use in challenging coastal or offshore conditions.
  • Manufacturing & Assembly: Facilitating the assembly and movement of heavy components within production lines.
