Telescopic piston TCS series

for hydraulic lifts

The telescopic piston TCS is normally used in small-sized lifts where the shaft size is very reduced: it is possible to fit all the pieces, the piston, the chain and the fixtures, within a space of 170 mm between the shaft and the car. For these reasons and also due to the mechanical synchronization, the piston TCS is suitable for any type of passenger lift with 3 – 4 stops, even though it is normally used for goods lifts, bed lifts and home lifts. The telescopic piston TCS is available in versions with 2 and 3 stages, synchronized by means of a chain system connecting the different stages. The TCS-2N solution, equipped with an internal guide, is used for travelling heights of up to 6 m. There is no external guide for the piston needed. The TCS-2Y and 3Y solutions require external guides (T-rail 50x50x5) which are supplied as an optional. The piston can be supplied with either the traditional rupture valve or with the excess flow limiting device paired with the Pawl Device. The latter option can be convenient for systems with 2 or more pistons.
