Frequently Asked Questions
The PVL12 has a 12,000 lb capacity, while the PVL15 has a 15,000 lb capacity. The PVL15 is designed for shops that regularly service heavier vehicles such as large SUVs, trucks, and commercial vehicles.
The standard PVL15 has an overall height of 174½ inches (4,430mm) and requires a minimum ceiling of 14½ feet. An optional column extension kit (PVL15-EXT, sold separately) raises the overall height to 198½ inches (5,040mm) and requires approximately 16½ feet of ceiling height for shops servicing taller vehicles.
The extension kit is optional and depends on your facility's ceiling height and the vehicles you service. If your shop has a minimum 16½ foot ceiling and regularly services taller vehicles (lifted trucks, RVs, etc.), the extension kit allows for improved clearance. The standard version is suitable for shops with 14½ foot ceilings.
Yes, the Atlas Platinum PVL15 is fully ALI (American Lift Institute) certified, meeting all professional safety standards for commercial service facilities. It includes all required safety features including an overhead anti-crush safety bar with automatic cut-off.
The PVL15 completes a full lift in 80 seconds and lowers in 40 seconds. These cycle times reflect the heavier capacity and are typical for professional-grade 15,000 lb lifts used in demanding service environments.
The PVL15 provides a maximum lifting height of 72½ inches (1,844mm) and a minimum lowered height of 4⅞ inches (118mm). This range allows you to service vehicles from ground level to a comfortable working height.
The PVL15 requires a dedicated circuit with 2HP motor operation at 208-240V/50-60Hz single-phase. Like the PVL12, a licensed electrician should verify your facility's electrical capacity is adequate for this heavy-duty equipment.
Yes, the PVL15 supports both symmetric (centered between columns) and asymmetric (offset) vehicle positioning. This flexibility accommodates various service bay layouts and vehicle sizes.
This proprietary system synchronizes lifting between both columns, maintaining perfect platform levelness even when servicing vehicles with asymmetric weight distribution. This prevents platform tilting and ensures safe, balanced operation under all loading conditions.
Regular maintenance includes checking hydraulic fluid levels, inspecting for leaks, testing safety systems quarterly, and performing comprehensive annual inspections. Consult the operator manual for detailed maintenance schedules. Professional servicing is recommended annually.
