SEATTLE & BRUSSELS--Power Climber Wind, a division of SafeWorks, LLC, introduced the next generation of its Turbine Service Lift (TSL), featuring increased travel speed and advanced electronics at Windpower 2012, held in Atlanta.

Driven by a proven, proprietary hoist with integrated overspeed and slack rope safety devices, the service lift's 70 feet/min travel speed provides a dramatic increase in technicians' productivity. Additionally, solid state electronics with active fault monitoring and an active system status display enhance operator safety and confidence.

"The success of our market-leading IBEX® climb assist has demonstrated that putting the operator in control dramatically increases safety, productivity and confidence," explained Gregory Crew, Global Product Manager.
