CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution
CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution
The patented CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution is a pneumatic lifting device for the front of the vehicle for easy and safe crossing of road obstacles such as thresholds or unfavourably angled entrances.
In addition, the CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution is particularly suitable for uncomplicated loading of the vehicle onto a transporter, as this process is significantly facilitated by a raised vehicle nose.
Thanks to the CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution, the body, measured on the front fender, can be raised by 55mm, which, in the case of the Porsche 997, means a 72mm increase in the front spoiler!
The CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution is primarily based on a special air spring, a rubber bellows which can be filled with air and which unfolds with the aid of incoming air. This air spring, specially designed for space-saving use, is installed underneath the upper chassis dome bearing and thus does not affect the original chassis behaviour or the choice of wheel/tire combination used.
The only requirement for installation in the vehicle is a coil-over suspension.
The CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution is available as an upgrade kit for mounting on an existing coilover suspension or, alternatively, as a complete solution together with a BILSTEIN suspension of the proven B16 series.
The CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution offers clear advantages over hydraulic systems, i.e. systems filled with oil, due to its pneumatic mode of operation alone. The absence of hydraulic fluid alone prevents possible leakage and associated damage.
Furthermore, unlike other lifting devices, the CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution is flexible in its choice of coil-over suspension and wheel/tyre combination due to its simple but clever design.
The system is filled either by the vehicle's own air compressor of the breakdown set, which does not impair the boot volume, or by an optionally available compressor, which requires an even shorter period of time for lifting.
In summary, the CARGRAPHIC FA-LiftSystem Evolution offers the following advantages and product features:
- Raising of the body by 55mm, measured at the fender
- Fast response time: maximum increase within 15 seconds
- No change or impairment of driving behaviour
- Safe control with automatic lowering from 50km/h
- Pneumatic operation, thus no liquid in the vehicle
- No reduction of the luggage compartment volume
- Low weight of approx. 3Kg
- Short installation time of approx. 3 hours.
- Operation via radio or permanently installed switch
- German TUEV certificate
- Tested by world champion Walter Röhrl
