Lift&Drive DC15 U42 – Compact High-Capacity Server Lifter for Data Centres

The Lift&Drive DC15 U42 is a high-capacity, professional server lifter designed to deliver safe, precise, and efficient handling of IT equipment in tightly configured data centre environments. Its compact design and excellent manoeuvrability make it ideally suited for working in narrow aisles, confined technical spaces, and high-density server installations where control and accuracy are essential.

Despite its compact footprint, the DC15 U42 offers an impressive lifting range, providing one of the market’s lowest reach capabilities down to just 1U, while still achieving a maximum height of 42U. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide variety of server installation, maintenance, and removal tasks across modern IT infrastructure.

The trolley’s extremely low deadweight, combined with four swivelling wheels, ensures it is exceptionally light and easy to operate. Low roll resistance further enhances manoeuvrability, while electric lifting power provides smooth, controlled, and ergonomic vertical movement. This reduces operator strain and improves safety when handling sensitive and high-value server equipment.

For added control and stability, the rear wheels are fitted with an easy-access central brake system that also includes a directional lock, allowing precise positioning during operation in restricted environments.

A key feature of the DC15 U42 is the PRX control system with Ergoswap technology. This system incorporates a removable battery that can be safely recharged outside the data hall, helping to reduce overheating risks, support regulatory compliance, and improve overall operational uptime and safety standards.
