10 AVANTI Work Cage for Wind Turbines

4. Description of equipment

4.1 Purpose

The work cage described in this User’s Manual

serves the following purposes:

- transportation of staff and material inside wind

turbine systems, lettuce towers for wind tur-

bines, and telecommunication towers.

- transportation for mounting, inspection and

repairs.

The work cage may be used for transportation

of two persons plus their tools and equipment

to the most convenient height for performing

work on the tower.

The work cage is designed for permanent in-

stallation in one speciﬁc tower.

The lift is not designed for use

- in silos,

- at drilling sites,

- as a permanently installed facade lift,

- as a crane lift,

- in environments with explosion hazards.

4.2 Function

The work cage uses a traction hoist for ascend-

ing and descending on a wire secured to the

building.

Two safety brake safety gripping devices se-

cures the work cage to a separate safety wire.

Upward and downward travel is controlled

from within the work cage in hand mode, from

the remote control transmitter in remote mode

(optional), or from the outside in the automatic

mode (optional).

A lifting force limiter prevents upward travel in

case of an overload of the traction hoist.

Two guide wires on either side of the work cage

prevent the lift from swivelling/tilting.
