Product description
DeWalt Grabo Suction Lifter | 18V XR | 120kg Capacity | DCE590 With 2.0Ah Battery
Capable of lifting an impressive 120 kilograms, this is the result of a pairing between DeWalt and Grabo. Grabo are the industry leaders in powered suction lifters, and DeWalt have an fantastic battery platform. The DCE590 combines the two for a DeWalt 18V XR Grabo Suction Lifter.
The lifter uses a foam pad to create a seal between it and any flat surface, even rough or porous surfaces. A built-in motor pumps air out of the space under the Grabo unit, which in turn creates a vacuum. Vacuum force is incredibly strong, which is what gives it the ability to lift 120kg.
Once the required vacuum has been reached, the pump stops, which allows the machine to last a decent amount of time on the included 2.0Ah battery. For glass and other smooth surfaces there would be very little vacuum leakage; but for more porous or uneven materials, there will naturally be some leakage. The onboard electronics constantly measure the vacuum pressure and if it drops too far, the pump starts back up again until the desired pressure is reached again.
There is a clear display on the unit which shows the vacuum in either PSI or Bar, with a control above the display to switch between the two. Above the pressure is a four bar gauge to show the status of the vacuum, with three to four bars being the ideal vacuum. The bars are green when the vacuum feature is switched on and red when it is switched off but still has a vacuum. The red button switches the vacuum on or off, and if off, the red button (with safety switch) can be used to drop the vacuum. The main power switch is to the rear and recessed low into the body to prevent accidental operation.
