Energy expenses in a warehouse can easily add up quickly. Fortunately, implementing a preventive maintenance program can limit this cost while optimizing daily performance. For example, you can implement the Rite-Hite Pitmaster system to optimize the operation of your leveling bridge.

Specifically, the loading dock pit is usually an open space, exposed to cold or heat depending on the season. This can be a huge expense that you can easily save.

Don't wait until the electricity bill is too high before taking action.

Pitmaster, an effective sealing system

Pitmaster is a device for sealing the forward part of the loading dock pit. In this way, the latter is no longer exposed to the external environment, which significantly reduces energy loss.

On the one hand, there is no more transfer of hot and cold air since the openings are sealed. On the other hand, the Pitmaster avoids the phenomenon of heat transfer via the levelling plate. In the end, you save a lot.

How does it work?

Sealing the forward part of the levelling pit with the Pitmaster creates an air pocket under the dock leveller. This then acts as a thermal insulator and prevents energy dispersion. Whether it's cold or heat. Energy costs are then kept under control day after day and the savings remain valid whether or not there is a truck on the dock.

Multiple positive impacts

In the end, investing in the Pitmaster system pays off a lot. Thanks to its different options, this device saves energy, but not only. It is a system that allows you to guarantee the cleanliness of your installations and reduce the risk of obstruction. At the same time, the servicing and maintenance of loading docks is facilitated.
