The Consul 2-Ram 2.55 MKK type inground lift was designed for modern service centers and workshops where maximum space-saving and high load capacity are essential. This twin-cylinder, chrome-plated guide cylinder lift offers an ideal solution for lifting passenger cars and certain light commercial vehicles, up to a total weight of 5500 kg.
Thanks to the long lifting arms and the special chassis design, this lift is excellently suited for lifting longer-wheelbase vans (e.g., LT2 or Sprinter types), ensuring stable and safe work performance. Important note: The lift can only be operated together with the associated chassis (installation cassette).
This model combines reliability, long service life, and compliance with strict safety regulations, making it an ideal choice for professional vehicle maintenance.
The Consul 2.55 MKK lift incorporates several design elements that guarantee excellent performance and durability:
Robust Structure: The installation cassette features a galvanized steel frame, providing excellent corrosion protection and stability for the in-ground unit.
Premium Quality Hydraulics: The hydraulic system is powered by a hard-chrome-plated, twin guide cylinder system, which enables an extremely smooth and reliable lifting/lowering process.
Electro-Hydraulic Drive: The power unit is located externally to the lifting unit, which facilitates maintenance and optimizes the installation space.
Mechanical Synchronization: Mechanical synchronization occurs via a torsion bar, which also functions as a safety device, guaranteeing perfect coordination between the two cylinders.
Lowering Synchronization: During lowering, adjustable check valves ensure a precise and even descent.
Electronic Control: The electronic control unit has a built-in stop valve for increased safety.
Excellent Ventilation and Duct System: It features a connection stub for a DN 100 size PVC duct system, which serves for cassette ventilation and routing of the hydraulic lines.
Protected Cassette Cover: The cassette cover is fully galvanized, resisting environmental effects.
Safety Certifications: The lift has an IP54 protection rating, GS certification, and DIN EN 1493 and CE approvals, complying with the strictest European safety standards.
