Danger in the Data Center​

“Manual material handling is the principal source of compensable injuries in the American workforce, and four out of five of these injuries will affect the lower back.”
– Occupational Safety and Health Administration

“Over 36% of injuries involving missed workdays were the result of shoulder and back injuries…lifting loads over 50 pounds will increase the risk of injury.”
– US Bureau of Labor

No More Manual Lifting

IT equipment manufacturers typically specify using two to four people for handling and installation. Even with four people, manually lifting equipment unnecessarily increases the risk of accident. Manual lifting also delays other critical data center tasks from being performed.

Save Time and Money with ServerLIFT®

Installing servers and related IT equipment is both dangerous and inefficient. Depending on the number of people used to install equipment, data center efficiency can improve by up to 300% with ServerLIFT®.

Two salaried employees installing a new piece of rack-mounted equipment weighing 75 pounds* by hand provides a perfect example. This task requires 30+ minutes of high-tension work per employee, risking muscle strain, pinched fingers, and other injuries. Conversely, a single tech using a ServerLIFT® data center lift can make the move in 15 minutes with no risk involved.

SL-1000X FEATURES

Heavy Duty Platform

The platform stays rigid and level, even when lifting up to 1,000 lbs (454 kgs). This provides the critical post-to-post alignment needed to precisely rack-mount any server, making installation a breeze.

Side-Loading Capability

The side-shifting platform orients equipment for loading parallel to racks on either side of an aisle. With 6 inches (15.24 cm) of lateral movement in either direction, the platform provides the support you need while securing the equipment to the rack.

Swivel Handles Turn Easily​
As reported by one of our customers: "In 15 minutes, we racked an HP chassis and 15 new hard drive enclosures, with only one engineer. Using our new lift is much safer and quicker than using three engineers."

Dual-Point Stabilizer Brake​
The proprietary ServerLIFT brake system prevents any movement when transferring equipment on or off the platform, holding the entire machine rigid and stable.

Large Swivel Casters​
The large front and back caster wheels roll easily over any obstruction and won’t mark up data center flooring. The front casters can be locked for easy transport down straight hallways and aisles.

Compact Design​
The lift’s slim 24-inch (61 cm) base and oversized wheels smoothly navigate aisles, corners, and ramps while providing ample space for an operator — even in the narrowest of data center aisles. ServerLIFT’s unique mast design keeps the retracted lift height low enough to fit through standard-size doorways and elevators.

Telescoping Mast​
When fully extended, the mast lifts the platform equipment surface up to 8.75 ft (2.67 m) high to reach the highest racks (56U, or 64U when used with the RL-500 Riser attachment). As an added safety feature in height-restricted environments, the TouchSTOPⓇ overhead sensor prevents both structural and equipment damage by stopping the lift motor on contact with the ceiling or other overhead obstructions.

Fully Powered Lifting​
Capable of operating more than a full day on a single charge, the SL-1000X Super-Duty Lift features a non-hydraulic, heavy-duty winch motor and a leak-proof AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) battery that are safe for use in any data center environment. The unit comes equipped with the choice of a 110V or 220V 3-stage charging system.

Why OUR CUSTOMERS RELY ON SERVERLIFT®

I would recommend it 100%. It literally has saved my team’s backs. This last year was our biggest year, and for us to do as much as we did (we did almost 200 racks in 6 months)...you can’t do that kind of work without having something that makes your job easier. ServerLIFT® solutions have taken all of that burden off of my team.
April Turner,Groupware Tech
The ServerLIFT® unit was of great benefit during the racking of our blade centers. With the use of the strap kit, one person was able to unbox and safely place the 300-pound device into a rack on the rails. The benefit of not having to remove the blades and power supply components from the chassis to make it lighter saved time and potential damage.
Ken WardSr. Datacenter Engineer
Without a ServerLIFT® data center lift here, customers, they would be...let’s just say, very displeased if we didn’t offer that sort of a service when they got there and they went to rack their gear and they needed something to help them. It’s something that they rely on.
Bill Cory,Flexential
We really rely on our ServerLIFT® device. It was one of the best investments we made for our data centers. Thank you!
Scott Siewert,
Scott Siewert,Sr. Engineer, Metropolitan Airports Commission
We have a ServerLIFT® solution and it’s awesome. It can lift 500 lbs without issue. Even the largest Cisco devices can be installed using it. Our facilities group uses it to pull motors from CRAC Units. It’s well worth the investment.
Dan Balitewicz,Sr. Manager – Infrastructure Operations
In 15 minutes, we racked an HP chassis and 15 new hard drive enclosures, with only one engineer. Using our new lift is much safer and quicker than using 3 engineers.
Francisco Odiz, Triara
ServerLIFT® makes a great product that is easy to use, and promotes safety within the data center. It is especially useful to us in our new data centers, where we have standardized on 9ft. racks. I was most pleased with how easily it allowed us to move and re-rack our large AS/400 systems during a limited outage window.
Brad Gibbs,Lead Data Center Support
I was initially using a manual lift to move servers and other equipment. When the ServerLIFT® electric model came out it was an even better solution. If I have a server that needs to be installed and I am the only one available, I can get it down quickly and easily with the ServerLIFT® unit.
Dave Reno,IT Manager
Safety is our #1 priority. Originally, we didn’t have the resources to install the hardware safely. We were using other brands of both battery- operated and hand-crank lifts, but they required too much maintenance. Now, our ServerLIFT® unit is well-used and everybody is happy with the 'Cadillac' we bought. It’s a great investment.
