Tower Climber
No more climbing
3S LIFT tower climber is a lithium battery powered climb-aid equipment used on the tower crane. It can be installed within the tower section, or on the existing ladder within the tower.
With the advantages of high safety, stable running, compact structure design, simple operation, easy installation and disassembly, the tower climber enables the tower crane operator to get on and off the crane with an improved safety and efficiency.
The Tower Climber is designed and manufactured to the latest European standards and has passed the CE certification.

Smooth and Stable Running
Easy and efficient installation
Multiple Usage Scenarios
Tower Climber can be applied in various industries, such as tower cranes, wind turbine tower, high-voltage power transmission tower, cooling tower, warehouse storage, Refinery, Grain Silo, and bridge tower inspections etc.
Safety and efficiency when working at height
Upper-end stop with buffer
Two mechanical end stops with buffers are installed at the upper and lower ends of the guide rail respectively. This can prevent the car from overrunning the running pathway in the event of switch failure.
Operator Fall Arrester
Operator fall arrester is connected to the guide rail and full body harness. When accidents happen, fall arrester locks inside the guide rail immediately, to prevent serious injury.
Manual descent function
In case of sudden power failure, the operator can operate the manual descent lever to descend the car safely and steadily.
Car Fall Arrester
The Car Fall Arrester is located on the lift’s car and runs inside the guide rail. It locks immediately in case of a fall, keeping the car in place and preventing it from falling.
Overload protection system
Should an overload occur, the Tower Climber will sound an alarm and the power will instantly be cut off, stopping the lift in place. The Climber will not start again until the overload is corrected.
Lower-end stop with buffer
Two mechanical end stops with buffers are installed at the upper and lower ends of the guide rail respectively. This can prevent the car from overrunning the running pathway in the event of switch failure.
Key Features
1. Two-handle start-up switch
To use the Tower Climber, the operator must press and hold the switches on both handles simultaneously. If the operator releases either switch, the system stops immediately.
2. Remote operation system
The Tower Climber can be conveniently sent up and down without an operator at the push of a button. This allows the operator uptower to send the Climber down to a colleague at the bottom.
3. Top and bottom limit and ultimate limit protection
Thanks to the top and bottom limit switches, the Climber will stop automatically at the top and bottom of the tower. Additional safety is provided by the mechanical ultimate limit protection at the top and bottom.
4. Low battery protection function
When the battery is less than 15%, it allows the car to travel down only, but only descent.
5. Audible and visual alert while running
When the Tower Climber is in use, a light and an audible alarm will ensure other operators along the pathway are alerted to the approaching lift.
6. Collapsible footboards
The collapsible footboards enable rapid evacuation in case of emergency.
