OZ Lifting Products LLC will exhibit at the Water Environment Federation’s Technical Exhibition & Conference (WEFTEC) on October 5-9, 2024, at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. The exhibition runs on the final three days of the event. See OZ Lifting at Booth 8229.
OZ Lifting returns to the WEFTEC show floor with a 20 ft. by 20 ft. booth, having exhibited on three prior occasions. The center of attention will again be its Tele-Pro Davit crane range, available in 500 lb., 1,200 lb., and 2,500 lb. capacities. It allows users to leverage the benefits of the company’s other davits while telescoping the boom in and out under load.
Richard Miller, sales manager at OZ Lifting, said: “The Tele-Pro has been a popular product in this industry because of its ability to make precise adjustments under load. Our customers have found this exceptionally beneficial for raising and lowering water pumps; we will be staging live demonstrations of this application in our booth at the show.”
Another popular product is the 1,200-lb. capacity CompOZite davit crane, renowned for being ultra-lightweight and having exceptional corrosion resistance, even in harsh environments where water and treatment chemicals are present. The crane is made from advanced composite material and weighs only 83 lb. A CompOZite boom section will be in the booth to allow WEFTEC attendees to feel the weight difference firsthand.
Attendees will see the CompOZite Elite, the world’s most innovative Davit crane, offering the same capacity as the CompOZite, with a total crane weight of only 37 lbs. The booth will also showcase the Steel 500, Alumi-Lite 500, and XR Series 500 davits, plus a new wheelbase, in addition to a full line of stainless steel products, including beam clamps, push beam trolleys, chain hoists, and manual winches. Not forgetting a range of lever hoists featuring the popular dynamometer-equipped Dyno-Hoist.
Miller said: “We’ve been seeing a surge in demand for portable cranes in the water and wastewater industry. The ability to quickly move a single crane around a facility using interchangeable bases has been a game-changer for our customers. It’s helped them save time and money and improve overall efficiency.
“Expanding our footprint at the show [up from 10 ft. by 20 ft. originally] allows us to showcase better our products, especially the Tele-Pro’s extending boom. With more room, we can comfortably demonstrate the full capabilities of this and other machines. The larger booth also helps us accommodate the increased traffic and provide a more enjoyable experience for visitors.”
Miller will be joined in New Orleans by Steve Napieralski, president; Parker Hale, inside sales specialist; and Ashley Blum, marketing manager.
