Q:
How does Smart Chock differ from mechanical
restraints?
A: Versatility – It can be used on
any vehicle and is not dependant on the
size of the vehicle or the condition of
the ICC bar.
Smart Chock interconnects: wheel chock/dock
communication lights/dock door.
Inside
control panel can interlock and control
dock light, fan, & leveler.
High
intensity LED lights for inside and outside
boxes.
No
bypass switch.
Integrated
warning system if chock is prematurely
removed while door is open.
Less
costly to purchase and maintain –
initial cost is about a third of a mechanical
restraint.
Plus, mechanical restraint problems lead
to costly downtime and re–scheduling.
Oversized,
high strength aluminum chock with non-skid
steel back plate.
Q: Is Smart Chock energy efficient?
A: Smart Chock’s entire system runs
on 115V/.5 AMP – very low energy consumption.
Smart Chock is able to integrate with other
dock equipment to save on unnecessary energy
costs by interlocking the Versa Light dock
light, AeroTec fan, and leveler to function
only when the wheel is chocked and the door
is open.
