PWRS-G Power Seat Gas Version

The Harken Industrial Gas PowerSeat ascender has revolutionized working at height, providing the worker with the ability to ascend quickly, stay in position longer, and work in comfort. The PowerSeat provides quality, convenience, safety, and is the best solution for completing a task on time. Fuel consumption varies with weight and usage, but the motor is extremely efficient and only uses a few liters of unleaded gas with 4-stroke mix for a full day’s work at height. The PowerSeat is simple to use and ideal for a wide range of applications, including wind turbines, building exteriors, and search and rescue – not only as a powered ascender, but also as a portable winch or hauler. The portable unit weighs just 14 kg (31 lb), so it’s easy to carry around, yet strong, durable, and corrosion-resistant.

Speed Control
The unit is operated using a fail-safe dead man’s switch to control ascent speed, up to 15 m/min (49.2 ft/min).

Ergonomic Design
The PowerSeat is designed to stay in an upright position, conserving operator energy.

Brake
The braking system controls descent and provides workers protection against free falls. The encapsulating jaw cover protects fingers and clothing from catching in the winch.

Durability
Stainless steel load-carrying gears and pins provide strength and durability. Sealed gearbox and high-load roller bearings reduce friction under load. Roller bearings are corrosion resistant and do not require lubrication.
