(5)
Boot-Lift® Railcar Connector improves the speed and safety of connecting a hopper car to under-track systems, without workers crawling under the car, and without losing material to wind or contamination.
Features and Benefits:
• Boot prevents material loss, air pollution and contamination.
• Boots are automatically connected.
• Connector rises as railcar empties.
• Unit uses only 10 cfm at 90 psi (28 l/min. at 6.2 bar).
• Including double- or single-pocket, round-opening and GATX. Adapter plates allow interchangeability.
Options:
• Manual Aligner - simplifies car positioning by allowing adjustment of the Boot-Lift® Railcar Connector up to six inches (152 mm) total—three inches (76 mm) in either direction—along the track.
• Pneumatic Aligner - air-powered aligner provides eight inches (203 mm) of total adjustment—four inches (102 mm) in either direction—along the track. Remote control operation requires only 10 psi (0.7 bar) of air.
