The Vertical Level Safety Cages’ unique tipping feature angles the cage to accommodate and access the top of inclined tanker designs. This therefore ensures that the gap between the cage and tanker is minimised all the way along the tank length for safe tanker filling and maximum fall protection. Mounted to a gantry or platform, the entire cage lowers pneumatically over the top of a tanker, therefore providing workers with full fall prevention along the length of the tanker. The VertiLev safety cage allows workers to operate along the length of the vehicle without the risk of falling and without the need for fall arrest equipment such as harnesses or lanyards.
Manufactured in Europe and designed to withstand the most challenging environments, the VertiLev offers safety, flexibility and control in a complete package. So, our vertical level safety cages are suitable for all types of chemical tanker loading and access situations. As well as providing access to non-hazardous tankers and ISO tanks where fall prevention and operator safety are paramount. Movable internal gates are also available as an option. These gates are fitted at both or either end of the cage and can be set to cut the cage size down, allowing smaller tankers to be safely accessed by staff. In addition, an optional walkway can be mounted to the inboard side of the tanker truck loading cage. This allows operators to walk along the cage, so they only have to access the tanker top at the required point, reducing slip and trip risks.
