Description

The ASSA ABLOY DL6210S swingdock is a dock leveler based on a smarter design with fewer single steel components to secure highest quality and performance.

Features and benefits:

  • The outstanding feature is that all steel parts are made of the high-strength steel grade S355 providing a solid construction without compromises.
  • It is designed for the toughest loading operation with high frequency.
  • Integrated connectivity is available as an option option to enable monitoring, controlling, and accessing door data via ASSA ABLOY Insight.

Advantages of the S355 steel construction:

The structural steel mechanical properties of the steel grade S355 are highly resistant to wear a tear and suitable for applications with heavy loads. Compared to the conventional steel grade S235, the S355 is stronger, and the key differences are:

  • S355 steel can withstand 26% more stress before it breaks.
  • S355 steel can withstand 51% more stress before it deforms.
  • S355 steel is 31% harder improving durability.
  • S355 steel is 10% more elastic absorbing the shocks of the forklift truck traffic.

Mode of operation:

The swing lip safely bridges the gap between the ramp and the lorry bed. When the dock leveler is raised, the lip swings out and the leveler lowers gently onto the lorry bed. After loading or unloading, the leveler is raised again, the lip swings down and the platform returns to its parking position, i.e. to ramp level.

ASSA ABLOY Insight:

Integrated connectivity to enable monitoring, controlling, access door data and features as:

  • Equipment performance reliability.
  • Real time alerts of errors or obstructions.
  • Operational performance.

ASSA ABLOY DE6190DI Dock-IN:

  • Combined solution with parking guide and traffic lights in one system.
  • Ensures a safe and secure dock in procedure with the help of white guiding lights and red traffic lights.
  • There is no need to paint and repaint guiding lines on the asphalt or install conventional steel parking guides, which are an obstacle in the yard.
  • With modern LED technology ASSA ABLOY Dock-IN has a low energy consumption and a long life.

Manufacturer guidance

Consult manufacturer's literature for dimensions.

Accessories

None.

EPDM seal.

Guidance for specification option:

To seal the gap between leveler and pit, an EPDM seal can be factory-installed between the flexible platform and frame. By reducing draughts into the building, working conditions improve and energy savings increase.

Slip protection/ noise reduction.

Guidance for specification option:

Applying a polyurethane slip protection coating on the lip and platform ensures a durable non-slip (R11 according to DIN 51130) and noise reduction surface. The effect is a smooth and comfortable surface for handling equipment that is less receptive to wear and tear.

The PU coating material is resistant to impact, to thermal impact and most types of chemicals and it has a high loading capacity.

DE6190WC Wheel chock.

Guidance for specification option:

The wheel chock has a sensor to detect the presence and position of the vehicle and is connected to the dock leveler control panel.

If no vehicle is detected, the docking station is blocked for safety reasons. Furthermore, the wheel chock prevents the vehicle from moving during loading/unloading.

DE6090TLS Traffic light system.

Guidance for specification option:

The traffic light system either has a sensor above the dock leveler that measures the presence of the vehicle or it is a wheel chock that detects the vehicle.

If there is no vehicle (dock leveler is free), the traffic light inside is red, outside is green. The traffic light can also be combined with a wheel chock or door/ leveler interlocking.

DE6090DL Dock Light Heavy Duty LED.

Guidance for specification option:

Where dock lights are often a vulnerable object in the docking area, the virtually indestructible Dock Light Heavy Duty LED is suitable to bring light in the truck and docking area. It is designed for the most demanding environments and can withstand possible hard hits from a moving forklift without being damaged.

DE6190FL Fan light.

Guidance for specification option:

The compact fan light is a combined solution of a fan and a dock light in one system.

The fan creates a continuous stream of fresh air that refreshes and cleans the air inside the trailer or container and the integrated dock light provides extensive light. It has a flexible solid arm that fits general industry and logistics applications, for an easy and fast docking process.

Parking guides.

Guidance for specification option:

This visual aid makes it easier to park the vehicle and reduces the risk of collision. Especially advantageous for docking stations with wide leveler lips and cushion shelters.

Parking guides can be bolted or cast in concrete on the floor before the leveller.

DE6190DI Dock-IN White.

Guidance for specification option:

  • Two white LED bars.
  • Designed to help guide a truck to the dock.
  • Offers much more visual aid than white stripes on the shelter or asphalt.
  • Mounted on the wall they are always clearly visible, less exposed to wear and tear and not hidden by dirt and snow.

DE6190DI Dock-IN Red.

Guidance for specification option:

  • Consists of one red LED light bar, a sensor for truck detection and a traffic light control box.
  • The sensor detects the truck when it is in the right position, very close to the dock.
  • The red LED turns ON to give the signal to the truck driver to break and let the truck roll against the buffer at the lowest speed, without the risk of damage.
  • The system includes interlocking of the loading bay control box functions which are only released when the truck is in place and the red LED is ON.

DE6190DI Dock-IN White and Red.

Guidance for specification option:

The optimum combination of the White and Red systems for easy and safe docking.

  • The white LEDs provide the visual target and the red LED positions the truck at the right distance to the dock.
  • The white guiding LEDs turn off when the truck is detected and at the same time the red LED turns ON.
  • Before the truck is leaving, the operator pushes the RESET button on the control box inside the building. Then the white LEDs turn ON and the red LED turns off as a signal to the truck driver that the loading is finished.

DE6190DI Dock-IN Green and Red.

Guidance for specification option:

As DE6190DI Dock-IN White and Red but white LED is replaced by a green LED.

Second red LED.

Guidance for specification option:

A second red LED bar can be added to have the red LED traffic light on both sides of the docking bay. This is an option for terminals with left and right hand drive international trucks.

Wheel chock connection.

Guidance for specification option:

To increase the safety it is possible to connect the ASSA ABLOY wheel chock to the traffic light function ASSA ABLOY Dock‑IN Red or ASSA ABLOY Dock‑IN White and Red.

The control box will be interlocked until the truck is detected and the wheel chock is in place.

1.5 m long 950 docking power cable.

Guidance for specification option:

With CEE-plus, pre-mounted.

Replaces the standard 1.1 m power cable. See Control system for related options.

Manufacturer guidance

Shape:

  • The standard swing lip is a single rectangular lip for use with a fleet of vehicles that is a standard size.
  • A tapered swing lip ensures that the lip reaches the lorry bed, even when the lorry is not parked in the exact centre position. Avoids damage to the truck and interruptions of the dock-in procedure. Front edge is 250 mm narrower than back edge (125 mm each side).

Angle:

  • Bent lip: the standard bent steel swing lip ensures smooth transition to a lorry bed both above and below dock level. Avoids tripping hazards according EN 1398.
  • Straight lip: a straight steel swing lip ensures smooth transition when the lorry bed is below or equal to dock level. Avoids tripping hazards according EN 1398.
  • Bevelled lip: the standard steel lip is 80 mm bevelled, designed to provide maximum comfort and smooth transition from the lip.
