Dual-Rated Product
With a few simple equipment configurations, the AC40-152S can easily transform from crane to aerial mode of operation in a matter of minutes, allowing crews to maximize work by reducing the requirement to have multiple products on site. When configured for aerial operation, the operator can send crews aloft to work at heights in excess of 220 feet with optional equipment. When configured for crane operation, the user has all the benefits of a crane with a main boom length of 152 feet.
Quick Attach Platform
Altec’s patent-pending quick attach platform reduces the overall time required to install the platform on uneven ground. The platform interfaces with a lightweight bracket that seamlessly secures to the main boom, the end of the jib, or to the optional composite reach extension. Once the platform is in position on the ground and the bracket is attached to any of the above listed locations, the operator can simply extend the boom until the bracket engages the platform.
Load Moment and Area Protection (LMAP)
The AC40-152S features Altec’s new LMAP system. The convenient menu navigation with intuitive user interface displays load on hook, rated capacity percentage, boom length and angle, and load radius. Altec was the first boom truck crane manufacturer to include operator-defined audible alarm set points (Area Protection) as standard equipment with the Load Moment Indicator (LMI).
Longer Outrigger Jack Cylinders
Longer outrigger cylinders allow for easy unit setup on uneven ground and alleviates the need for extra cribbing. This feature reduces fatigue, minimizes set up time and provides more payload on the deck of the unit and comes standard on the AC40-152S.
The AC40-152S will be added to the Global Rental fleet, and is now available to order. To learn more about Altec cranes and equipment, call 866-966-2969 or contact an Altec representative online.
