MEGA Lift from Passenger Lift Solutions
The UKโs first purpose-made coach lift was launched by PLS in 1997 and was an instant success. Combining the PLS Access liftโs renowned reliability with high-floor stability and the highest all-sides guarded platform, the PLS Mega lift has been the industry benchmark for over 25 years. Now into its fifth design generation, todays PLS Mega lift utilises high tensile steel construction and ECO designed powerpack and motors to provide the lowest power and consumption and pressure usage in its class. With a fully flexible installation system, the PLS Mega lift has been fitted to every major coach design to make coaches accessible to all in the last quarter of a century. If there is space for a lift, the PLS Mega lift can be fitted.
The Mega lift range can be adapted to be installed anywhere on a coach from top, middle and bottom of lockers, to in-front or behind each axel. There will be a version of the PLS Mega lift to suit all applications. The most common is to install the lift directly on the bottom of the locker (first or second locker) to retain as much usable luggage space over the lift as possible (false floors are built over the lift to handle luggage). An access panel is cut into the locker side door to allow the lift to operate without having to open the entire locker door.
Safest Platform
The PLS Mega lift has the largest usable platform of any coach lift available in the market today. With two standard widths 825 / 925mm, and several lengths 1450 up to 2000mm, all platforms are fully guarded to meet and exceed with BSi standards. Platform sides are 80mm high ensuring passenger and operator safety and feature full side guards which are incorporated into the handrails. These provide piece of mind for the passenger and help to keep wheelchair foot plates away from the platform sides. The PLS Mega lift has the most stable platform of any cassette lift due to its โlocked outโ lifting cylinders. Unique to PLS, we design and build your lift to your vehicle and the floor height is set during lift production. This enables a โfull pressureโ locked out platform with zero movement side to side or front to back. This ultimate platform stability provides passengers with confidence whilst using the lift at any height
Aftersales Support
The PLS Mega lift has been in constant production since 1997, with thousands sold worldwide. Although the lift has been subject to several design upgrades and constant evolution, part of our design ethos is to ensure continuity of parts and components. All standard Mega lift parts are held in stock and can be supplied next day if ordered before 2pm on any working day.
Simple Manual Backup
Easy to manually override without needing for any specialist tools, the lift can be pulled in and out of the cassette easily without having to use tools or the need to unscrew locks etc. Once power is restored, the drive automatically engages again without having to re-engage the drive. The up and down platform movement is simply operated from the lift hydraulic powered with the handpump handle (which is provided with each lift). The lift easily โpumpsโ up and the down facility works by turning the lock-tap open (using the slotted end of the pumping handle).
Easy Upgrades
All PLS Mega lifts are manufactured with the option to upgrade when manufactured in our UK facility. This makes adding โextraโ features simple and easy to achieve once the lift is in service. All platforms have the brackets for the Stop Safe door barrier built inside, plus simple โknock-outsโ are located into the end of each platform aluminium to slot it in easily. Handrail extensions and seat-belt locks are moulded into each handrail, leading to multiple custom options being made available.
More as Standard
Due to the additional considerations of working at the increased heights of coaches the PLS Mega lifts all feature warning LEDs and sounders/buzzers as standard, plus an additional safety cable lock (for side mounted lifts). All electrical elements are โplug and playโ so can be changed in the field easily ensuring your coach is back on the road with minimum VOR time.
