The CONTECH® MK-20/60 is a heavy-duty 20 ft container spreader specifically developed for the lifting and handling of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) containers and heavy battery modules.
With a 60-tonne harbour Working Load Limit (WLL), the MK-20/60 provides the lifting capacity required for BESS units and other heavy containerized loads that can significantly exceed the weight of conventional ISO freight containers.
The spreader is designed for use in ports, shipyards, industrial facilities and offshore or transhipping operations, providing a dedicated lifting solution for heavy containerized energy storage systems.
Battery Energy Storage Systems can concentrate considerable weight within a standard 20 ft container footprint. Battery cells, racks, cooling systems, electrical equipment and structural components can result in weights significantly above those normally encountered with conventional freight containers.
The CONTECH® MK-20/60 BESS spreader has been developed specifically for these demanding lifting operations, combining a standard 20 ft lifting configuration with a 60-tonne harbour WLL.
Offshore container lifting introduces dynamic forces that are not normally encountered during conventional harbour lifting.
For this reason, the permissible offshore WLL of a spreader should not automatically be considered equal to its harbour lifting capacity.
The MK-20/60 is designed and tested in accordance with the applicable requirements for Special Lifting Items and Design Load for Offshore and Transhipping Operations, including the applicable Dynamic Amplification Factor (DAF).
This allows the appropriate permissible load to be determined according to the actual lifting conditions.
Lifting and positioning of heavy 20 ft Battery Energy Storage System containers during installation, commissioning and project logistics.
Handling heavy BESS units and other high-weight containerized equipment during loading, unloading and transfer operations.
Handling containerized battery systems and heavy modules where offshore lifting conditions and dynamic amplification must be considered.
Positioning heavy containerized equipment in power generation, energy storage and other industrial projects.
Every BESS project has its own lifting requirements. Container Technics can support your project in selecting the appropriate MK-20/60 lifting arrangement, taking into account container dimensions, gross weight and operating conditions.
