Easily Unpack Servers from Boxes

The ServerLIFT LE-500X™ and LE-1000X™ Lift Extensions are used to safely lift and remove servers, switches, UPS devices, and other rack-mounted equipment out of boxes and off of pallets without destroying the packaging or straining your back. These critical tools free operators from ever having to manually unpack boxes or lift equipment ever again.




Lift IT Equipment Into the Rack

ServerLIFT creates lifting solutions that are durable and designed for data centre use. Two lift extension models are currently available to support IT equipment hardware weighing up to 1000 lbs. (454 kg). With the LE-500X and LE-1000X lift extensions, handling heavy IT equipment from start to finish can be done safely and effectively. These lift extensions are popular attachments as a functional addition to our server handling solutions.

Angle In or Out of Slotted Rails

The RS-500X™ Rail Lift supports server equipment while giving the operator control over the angle of the server at all points of installation or removal from the rails. Capable of attaching to any ServerLIFT platform, the RS-500X can be used to easily tilt servers into slotted guard rails or keep them level for non-slotted, bolt-in installs.

Applications



Faster Installs
Dual-Side Aisle Compatibility
Drop-in Rails





Angle In/Out of Slotted Rails with a ServerLIFT RS-500X Rail Lift

Many servers are designed to be installed into racks using extended slide rails. Often, the server comes with nail heads on its sides, which line up with and insert into J-shaped slots in the slide rails.

Aligning these nail heads with the rail slots and guiding them into (or out of) the J-shape of the slot is awkward, tricky, and time-consuming. Doing this while supporting equipment that can range from 50 to hundreds of pounds is daunting—and dangerous.

The RS-500X Rail Lift can be used to safely and securely support servers at an angle or perfectly level, making it simple and easy to perform all manner of rack-mounted installations or removals.




The Must-Have Data Center Accessory

With the ServerLIFT RS-500X Rail Lift, no type of assisted install is out of reach for data center techs. The ServerLIFT RS-500X Rail Lift is compatible with all our data center lifts: the ServerLIFT SL-350X®, SL-500X®, SL-500FX™, and SL-1000X® model units.

IT Equipment Handling Down to the Floor

Extend your reach beyond and below the ServerLIFT machine frame, enabling you to perform assisted moves in even the most challenging of spaces.

Near-Ground Access
Lifts Servers Out of Boxes
Fine-Tilt Adjustment

Lifting Servers from Boxes and Pallets

You and your staff will never again have to lift IT equipment off pallets or out of boxes, avoiding the risk of a back injury and/or server damage.



The Platform Extension gives you reach beyond the ServerLIFT Wheel Base for interference-free overhead access to new server packaging.

With the four sling hooks installed on the extension, slide the heavy-duty yellow slings under the server you want to un-box, and secure each end to one of the hooks. Then, the ServerLIFT machine and PL-500X Extension combine to lift the server and its packaging right up off of the ground.

You can easily remove the box and packing foam from the server fully intact to save for later, in case of a return or future migration project.

After setting the server down onto a table or counter and transferring it to the ServerLIFT or PL-500X platform surface, you’re ready to shift to installation mode.
