Safety

Safe control of the tail lift thanks to zone localization of the operator, intelligent sensor technology and also redundant hardware and software (Performance Level 3d).

All operations, whether via the outside control, a control bulb, by foot switch or radio control, are read in twice, processed twice and controlled twice. The Cobra 390 system is capable of self-checking and ensuring safety at all times (Performance Level 3d). Thanks to the full integration of tail lift control, tail lift safety is redefined. Your safety - and the safety of others around the tail lift - is guaranteed in any case.

Combined with the revolutionary zone localisation, the user is also protected from operating errors without having to restrict operation.

Time saving

Gain valuable time with every loading and unloading operation.
‍
Thanks to Cobra 390, valuable time is gained threefold:

  1. The tail lift can already be opened while the chauffeur is moving to the rear of the vehicle.
  2. There is no need for strenuous and unhealthy climbing up and down to the platform.
  3. The platform can be readjusted at any time during loading and unloading.

The following is an example calculation* of time savings.

*All times are based on exemplary empirical values and are without guarantee.

Variokey

If the Cobra 390 controller is equipped with the Variokey feature (optional), the radio control can be coupled to any Cobra 390 tail lift within the company fleet in just a few steps. This means that the radio control remains with the driver as a personal operating instrument, even if he changes the towing vehicle or couples a trailer. And it's that simple:

  1. Switch the driver's cab switch or the receiver power supply off and on again. The radio control can now be coupled in the next 3 minutes.
  2. Hold the handheld transmitter at a position sensor of the vehicle to be connected (distance < 0.5 m).
  3. Hold down the towing vehicle or trailer key.
    - During the pairing process, a flashing running light appears.
    - After 3 seconds, the connection setup starts, this is indicated with a running light.
    - If the connection is successful, the towing vehicle or trailer LED starts to light up.
  4. The radio control is now coupled and can be connected to the tail lift.

Variokey

Thanks to Variokey, the radio control can be easily coupled with several Cobra 390 tail lifts.

Robust technology in a small format

Optimally protected against environmental influences, vibrations and corrosion.

The handheld transmitter as well as the controller and the sensors are optimally protected against environmental influences, vibrations and corrosion. All external components are enclosed in UV-protected and stone impact-resistant materials.

All inputs and outputs are also electrically protected against almost all possible interference. The components are designed for an operating life of more than 20 years.

Thanks to the compact dimensions of the controller, which is the size of a Swiss chocolate, the technology can be stowed almost anywhere.

You can mount the position sensors on both sides of the vehicle and, thanks to their robust construction, they can withstand even hard stone impacts.

The platform sensor measures the angle of the platform for you and offers the possibility to read in the blinker lights, as well as foot switches on the platform. Not only the housing is designed in a stone impact resistant form, but also the plug connections are well protected mechanically and against water influences.
