The SL500 Classic Powered ServerLIFT is the original specialized server lift device built exclusively for the date center. This durable lift is loaded with features making it easy for a single operator to lift and move heavy server chassis, switches or blade enclosure. Paired with the PL-500A Platform Extension, the SL500 Server LIFT can reach the bottom of standard racks for an easier install of heavy equipment.

2. An Integral Part of the Data Center
You strive to achieve the highest standards of uptime and service for your data center. Shouldn’t moving IT equipment
within your data center also meet those high standards?
Moving IT equipment has historically been done by manual labor, greatly increasing the chances of accidents and
work related injury claims. Unfortunately, even with a high level of expertise, IT staff faces dangers while lifting and
moving heavy equipment.
The ServerLIFT SL500 was created to safely and effectively handle valuable IT equipment in your
data center such as servers, switches, UPS’s and related equipment. Designed with the end-user
in mind, the ServerLIFT SL500 helps maximize productivity and reduce operator fatigue and
discomfort.
The ServerLIFT SL500 is capable of lifting 500 pounds to a height of eight feet using a single operator. The unit easily
navigates through doorways and narrow data center aisles. It is side loading, allowing the operator to work from
either the left or right side. For added convenience, it is equipped with a built-in battery charger and charge indicator.
The stabilizer brake system secures the unit so that the user can work safely.

Slide Equipment into Place
The ServerLIFT SL500 side-shifting platform conveniently moves
right or left. This provides an
additional 6 inches of travel for
a seamless transition of equipment to the rack. The platform is
capable of supporting an off-centered weight of up to 500 pounds.
