Vestil EH-78-25 is a hydraulic dock leveler designed for high-usage dock areas, offering a reliable push-button operation to raise and position the deck for loading and unloading. The unit features an automatic lip extension as the platform reaches the raised position, facilitating alignment with trailer beds. A red emergency stop on the control box provides an immediate safety stop, and when the truck pulls away, the leveler drops to full down, trips a limit switch, and returns to a level cross-traffic position. Telescopic steel toe guards on both sides are flush with the platform edge for added protection, and two laminated bumpers help absorb impacts at the dock edge. The system is configured for 460V 3-phase service, consistent with standard industrial installations.
This model is specified with a uniform capacity of 25,000 lb and a service range above the dock of ±12 inches, which supports operations with varying trailer heights and dock conditions. The package is listed as Each, aligning with how many installations implement a single leveler per dock bay. Typical applications include facilities with frequent trailer exchanges and heavy palletized loads, where quick hydraulic cycling and safe lip extension enhance throughput. For best results, verify compatibility with existing pit dimensions and power availability before procurement, as performance depends on correct electrical setup and proper integration with dock equipment.
Notes on suitability: while the description references standard features such as the auto lip extension and emergency stop, confirm that the intended installation matches the 86" W x 86" L x 24" D footprint and the specified service range. The product supports standard 460V, 3-phase electrical infrastructure; if your facility uses different power standards, consult Vestil for alternative configurations or factory options. Documentation lists the model with a 25,000 lb capacity, which informs handling capabilities, but does not specify additional certifications or country-of-origin details in the provided data.
