Wood’s Powr-Grip MT10FS10TDC - Manual (Page 5)

Rev 30.0/5-14 3 MT-FS10TDC: #35091
SPECIFICATIONS
Description: Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, MT-FS10TDC lifters employ
vacuum to hold a load for lifting, and they provide manual 90° tilt movement for load
manipulation.
Model Number: MT4FS10TDC MT6FS10TDC MT8FS10TDC MT10FS10TDCO
(4 Vacuum Pads) (6 Vacuum Pads) (8 Vacuum Pads) (10 Vacuum Pads)
Maximum Pad Spread: 1 11¾" x 53¾" 11¾" x 77¾" 21¾" x 77¾" 33¾" x 77¾"
(to outer edges) [298 x 1365 mm] [298 x 1975 mm] [551 x 1975 mm] [859 x 1975 mm]
Lifter Weight: 87 lbs [40 kg] 97 lbs [44 kg] 113 lbs [52 kg] 130 lbs [59 kg]
Load Capacity: (rated at 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces 2 )
Per-Pad: 150 lbs [68 kg] 150 lbs [68.5 kg] 150 lbs [68.5 kg] 150 lbs [68 kg]
Maximum: 600 lbs [270 kg] 900 lbs [410 kg] 1200 lbs [545 kg] 1500 lbs [680 kg]
Power Source: 12 volts DC, 10 amps (with Thomas pump) or 3 amps (with Dynaflo pump)
Battery Capacity: 7 amp-hours
Vacuum Package Weight: 27 lbs [13 kg]
Vacuum Pads:
10" [25 cm] nominal diameter (Model VPFS10T), standard rubber, spring-mounted (¼"
[7 mm] travel), with #60 filter screen and replaceable sealing rings for applications on
rough or textured surfaces.
Pad Shutoffs: Manual valves control vacuum flow at adjacent pads.
Tilt Capability: Manual, 90°
Vacuum Pump: Diaphragm type, 1 SCFM [28 liters/minute] nominal airflow
Vacuum Reserve Tank: Vacuum reservoir helps prevent immediate vacuum loss in case of power failure and
extends battery life by reducing pump cycles required to maintain vacuum.
Vacuum Gauge: Dial gauge indicates current vacuum level in positive inches of Hg and negative kPa.
Low Vacuum Warning Light: Red light is energized until vacuum level is sufficient to lift maximum load weight
(higher than 16" Hg [-54 kPa]) and whenever vacuum loss causes pump to re-engage.
Low Vacuum Warning Buzzer: (if applicable) Maximum Alarm Volume = 103 dBA at 2 ft [60 cm]. While vacuum
package is powered up, audible alarm warns the operator whenever vacuum is not
sufficient for lifting the maximum load weight.
Options: Available with Model LB4CSO - Center Spool Lift Bar. By eliminating the need for slings
or other rigging, this option allows the hook of hoisting equipment to attach directly to
the lift bar of the vacuum lifter, thereby reducing the overhead clearance requirement.
See separate instructions about other optional features.
Operating Elevation: Maximum = 6000 feet [1828 meters]
Operating Temperatures: 32° to 104° F [0° to 40° C]
Service Life:
This lifter is designed to have a service life of at least 20,000 lifting cycles, when used
and maintained as intended. Vacuum pads, filter elements and other wear-out items
are excluded; see MAINTENANCE and REPLACEMENT PARTS LIST for more information.
For the D
ISPOSAL OF THE L IFTER after its service life, see INTENDED USE.
ASME Standard BTH-1: Design Category "B", Service Class "0" (see www.powrgrip.com for more information)

requirements of other standards that also apply to this vacuum lifter. CE requirements are mandatory in geographical areas where CE
Standards apply, but may be optional in other locations.
