Edge of Dock Leveler (EOD) MRS-V
Mechanical operation for minimal height differences
The Bar Lift Edge-of-Dock model MRS-V has been ergonomically designed to offer a mechanical advantage for assisting the gas spring lift assembly. Using the bar as a lever, the attendant can easily position the deck plate and lip with only a minimum amount of lifting required. This feature eliminates the need for any excessive manual effort or lifting by the dock attendant resulting in fewer back problems and improved employee safety.
Best of all, installation by simply welding the unit to the front of the dock means that no special concrete work or pit is required, saving valuable time and expense.
MRS-V Dock Leveler Construction
Reliable, sturdy, and flexible design
- Torsionally Flexible Dock Leveler Platform
The platform is made of anti-slip steel S235 (0.25” thick). - Robust Hinged Lip
The hinged lip supplied is made of ½” thick S355 anti-slip steel. The closely-spaced hinge strips (32 units on a 3.25’ wide dock leveler) improve rigidity and strength compared to hinge bushings. The open construction prevents dirt collecting in the hinge. The angle of the lip allows a convenient support on the loading surface. - Made to Withstand Tough Environments
The self-supporting steel articulated design is resistant to working stresses up to 35,000 lbs (static load capacity) as standard (rated load according to MH30.1-2022). - Simple Operation
The platform is raised using the control bar. The hinged lip folds out in an opposing movement and is positioned on the loading surface. The force is within the limits set by MH30.1-2022. - Gas Spring Support
The gas spring ensures counterbalance and facilitates the operation. The force remains within the limit values set by ANSI-MH-30-1-2022. - Corrosion Protection
The steel surfaces are sandblasted and supplied in 2C PU-coated black. On request, galvanized finish is also available. - Steel Bumpers
Formed steel bumper blocks with molded rubber bumpers are standard (21” total projection). - Toe Guards
Toe guards are a standard safety feature in our mechanical edge of dock levelers.
