Electric Boom Lift Specs
An electric boom lift is a battery-powered aerial lift with an extendable boom arm. Also known as an electric man lift, this equipment lifts the operator in a bucket attachment. An electric boom lift is ideal for indoor operations because it doesn’t produce any harmful emissions.
An electric boom lift can be either telescopic or articulating. Telescopic models have a straight, extendable arm. Articulating models have pivot points along the arm that allow it to bend. Choose an electric boom lift type based on your individual workplace needs.
Lift Height
Designed for indoor use, electric man lifts have less lift height than gas and diesel-powered models. On average, these machines reach 30 to 60 feet. Telescopic models have more reach than articulating models. In contrast, full-sized outdoor boom lifts can extend up to 190 feet.
If you work in a crowded warehouse, choose an electric articulating boom lift. This equipment is better for navigating around obstacles. If you work in an open space and need extra lift height, load capacity, and stability, choose an electric telescopic lift. Consider facility type before purchasing an electric telescopic or electric articulating boom lift.
Load Capacity
Load capacity varies depending on the model and the type of electric man lift you choose. Most electric boom lifts have a load capacity between 500 and 1,000 pounds. Because of their ability to bend, electric articulating boom lifts have a lower load capacity than telescopic options.
Remember that load capacity changes depending on the load center and attachment type. Check the equipment’s load capacity chart before operating.
