Triumph NTO-20S Features

Direct Drive Cylinder System

The Triumph NTO-20S uses direct drive cylinders that connect directly to the lifting carriages, eliminating the cables and chains found in other lift designs. This results in smoother operation, reduced maintenance, and more consistent lifting performance. The direct drive system delivers the full 20,000 lb capacity with a 40-second rise time.

Electrical Override Safety Shut-Off

Safety is built into every aspect of the NTO-20S, including an automatic electrical safety shut-off system. This feature cuts power to the lift if it detects any irregularities during operation, preventing accidents and protecting both technicians and vehicles. The override provides an additional layer of protection beyond the mechanical safety locks.

Single-Point Lock Release

The single-point lock release system allows the operator to disengage all safety locks from one convenient location. This streamlines the lowering process and reduces the time spent walking around the lift to release individual locks. The system maintains full safety compliance while improving workflow efficiency.

Overhead Design Configuration

The overhead style two-post design positions the connecting beam at the top of the columns, keeping the floor area completely clear for vehicle access. This configuration provides 113 in of drive-thru width and eliminates any obstacles that could interfere with longer wheelbase vehicles or impede technician movement.

Wide Drive-Thru Clearance

With 113 in of drive-thru width and 124 in between posts, the NTO-20S accommodates wider commercial vehicles that won't fit on standard automotive lifts. The generous clearance makes positioning large trucks, vans, and dual-rear-wheel vehicles straightforward without concern for mirror or body damage.

Heavy-Duty 3 HP Motor

The 3 HP motor powers the NTO-20S through demanding daily use in commercial environments. Running on 220V single-phase power, the motor delivers consistent performance and the torque needed to lift fully loaded commercial vehicles. The 40-second lift time keeps productivity high even with the heaviest loads.
