The Consul 2-Ram In-ground Lift, model designation 2.40 MKK, is an excellent quality, professional workshop equipment designed for lifting passenger cars and most light commercial vehicles (e.g., VW T5) up to a maximum capacity of 4000 kg. This electro-hydraulic system features an integrated cassette and hard-chromed guide cylinders, ideal for body repair work and use with vehicle benches, thanks to the carefully designed piston distance.
This model combines reliability, safety, and long service life with the demands of modern workshops.
This in-ground lift provides excellent access to the underside of the vehicle while remaining flush with the floor when not in use, thus maximizing the utilization of workshop space.
Integrated Cassette: The structure is housed in a robust installation cassette equipped with a hot-dip galvanized steel frame, which guarantees stability and corrosion resistance.
Twin Guide and Hydraulics: The hard-chromed twin guide system and hydraulic pistons ensure a smooth, even, and reliable lifting/lowering process.
External Drive Unit: The electro-hydraulic drive unit is located externally to the lifting unit, which facilitates maintenance and protects sensitive components from contamination.
Mechanical Synchronization: Mechanical synchronization is achieved with the help of a yoke, which also functions as a safety device, ensuring perfect alignment of the two cylinders.
Lowering Synchronization: During lowering, the adjustable check valves ensure synchronized and safe descent.
Electronic Control: The lift is electronically controlled and features a built-in stop valve for precise operation.
Cassette Ventilation and Piping: The installation cassette is equipped with a connection socket (DN 100 KG pipe) for cassette ventilation and for setting up potential supply line piping.
Durable Construction: The cassette cover at floor level is hot-dip galvanized, resistant to workshop conditions.
The Consul 2.40 MKK lift strictly complies with the highest safety and quality standards.
