ANVER’s BAE1-GEN3 series Vac-Pack vacuum generator contains many of the same features as the standard VPE1-GEN3 series. Designed for use with a wide assortment of vacuum pad attachments and lifter assemblies, the BAE1-GEN3 series includes a rechargeable, heavy duty 12 volt DC 79 amp hour battery, making it suitable for handling non-porous loads. It is commonly used for special applications where AC power is not readily available.

Safety features:

  • Load sensing lifting bail with safety lock-out
    Pendant controls are only active when the lifter is lowered completely and there is no load on the bail. This eliminates the risk of accidental release of a suspended load by the operator. (Feature not present on the BAE1-GEN3-RD Series, which is a standalone version, or the BAE1-GEN3-T, which is a tilter version.)
  • Vacuum control
    A solid-state vacuum control combines all the required vacuum generator controls in one rugged unit. It controls all vacuum pump functions and safety lights, and is fitted with a standard audible vacuum leakage warning system.
  • Energy saver technology
    A vacuum-controlled valve shuts off the vacuum pump when the pre-set vacuum level is reached, reducing wear and tear on the pump.

  • Audible vacuum leakage warning system
    Integrated electronically controlled vacuum leakage sensor monitors vacuum level and will sound an alarm if a slow vacuum leak is present when the vacuum level drops to a pre-determined set point.
  • Vacuum retention
    The system includes an internal check valve to stop leakage of vacuum in the event of a power failure (non-porous loads). A 627 cu. in. vacuum reservoir assists in maintaining a safe vacuum level during a power failure (non-porous loads).

Additional features:

  • Front control panel and gauges
    All gauges, lights and power switches are mounted on the front of the control panel. The two vacuum gauges on the face of the panel display the level of vacuum in the manifold and in the reservoir.
  • Indicator lights
    Green light indicates “safe” vacuum level.
    Red light indicates “unsafe” vacuum level.
    White light indicates “power on.”

Generator shown with radio controls

Your choice of four control styles to suit your application:

Standard controls
Electric self-cycling system
Electric self-cycling video

Electric self-cycling attach/release
Instant attach/release is provided via the hoist up and down movement. The attach and release alternate each lift cycle for fast, efficient handling. Similar to our line of mechanical generators.

Features:

  • No pendant or radio controls required for attach/release.
  • Extremely safe: load cannot be released until it is set down on a surface.
  • Simple to operate.
Optional controls
RCT 3 button radio control transmitter

Radio controlled 3 button attach / release / interlock transmitter with plug-in receiver
Hand held device with attach, release and safety interlock push buttons with holster mounted on front handlebar. Plug-in receiver is mounted on side of vacuum generator.

Includes:

  • Radio control transmitter and mounting holster
  • Radio control receiver and mounting bracket
EPK-AC/DC-ARI control pendant

Plug-in attach / release / interlock control pendant
Attach/release momentary switch and safety interlock push-button located on control pendant with 10 ft long coiled cord.

Includes:

  • Pendant control and mounting holster
  • Plug-in, replaceable coil cord, 10 ft. long.
34000332 radio receiver interface harness

Plug-in harness, customer radio receiver interface
Control harness allows you to wire your own radio receiver for integration of attach / release / interlock.

Includes:

  • Cord, 3 ft. long.

  • Recommended battery charger (CHARGER-BAE) (sold separately)
    The battery charger is designed specifically for today’s high performance, deep-cycle lead-acid batteries. The straight blade plug accommodates a standard extension cord using a 110V AC wall outlet.
  • Ergonomic control handlebar
    Easy to grasp, large loop handlebar enables the operator to easily and safely maneuver the attached load without touching the load itself. Handlebar can be adjusted for smaller size loads.

Maintenance:

  • Bottom hinged front & rear panel cover
    The front and back covers fold open for easy access to all components.
  • Air filter
    Over-sized air filter provided inside of front cover features a screw-on clear filter bowl for easy filter inspection and cleaning.
  • Removable battery case cover
    Standard battery case with strap and cover provides easy access to the battery, which is mounted on a rugged mounting bracket(s) bolted directly to the Vac-Pack.
  • Battery cable plugs
    Allows easy connection and disconnection to and from the Vac-Pack during battery maintenance or replacement.

Vacuum pump:

  • The dual 2.5 CFM diaphragm vacuum pumps are driven by a 1/16 hp 12 volt DC motor and generate 24” Hg (at sea level) of vacuum. The ANVER vacuum control module maintains a safe vacuum level by cycling the vacuum pump/motor on or off as required, which extends both the vacuum pump life and the battery charge.

Battery specification:

  • 79 amp hour, deep-cycle battery can provide up to 8 hours of continual operation in many applications.

Options:

  • Optional moisture traps (32000216)
    For damp applications: prevents saturation of filter and possible damage to pump. Not for handling wet loads. Mounts on vacuum manifold.
  • *Optional generator configurations available:
    In addition to our standard line of Vac-Packs noted above, other configurations and set-ups are available.
