HLU LE-X: Proven technology rethought

The new, patented HLU LE-X is the logical further development of the previous generation of locking units. In the aspects of dimensions, load capacity, stroke lengths, emergency actuation, corrosion protection and design, considerable progress and simplifications have been achieved in order to integrate our locking unit even better into your system landscape.

The LE-X (M) hydraulic locking unit is certified with the TÜV SÜD component certificate according to DIN EN 13814:2019 / ISO 17842:2015 (co-applicable: ASTM F 2974-20 / F 2291-20) and ISO 9001. LE-X (E) TÜV SÜD certificate is pending and expected in December 2021. Both units are also RoHs and REACH compliant.

What is new about the type LE-X?

More design freedom for you thanks to many design advantages:

Stroke lengths from 80 up to 250 mm
Envelope dimensions reduced by up to 71% (see HLU LE32 K)

--> Increased compatibility with many different restraint systems in amusement rides

Exchangeability of existing units significantly simplified.

The external dimensions are closely based on existing units on the market
"One size fits it all", i.e. you can scale the same designs of your restraint system to various rides and save costs

--> Retrofitting and exchange in case of service - Test the LE-X!

Newly developed emergency release

with push-pull remote control
different lengths available
Plug & Play installation

--> Quick release in an emergency without prior removal of components / cladding
