The HLA series is an articulating boom aerial platform made by Bronto Skylift. Like most of Bronto's platforms the booms also telescope making the unit more compact for travel.
The HLA was designed to provide the maximum vertical reach possible to support operations at high rise buildings. The 370 foot F 112 HLA is currently the world's the tallest elevating platform. HLA stands for High Level Articulated.
It is provided with integral plumbing and has a 1000gpm monitor at the platform.
The platform can tip up or down to maintain a level floor, but also has the capability of turning 60 degrees to either side. It has a safe working load of 1100 lbs.
The HLA comes in five lengths ranging from 78 to 112 meters. The HLA requires a specialized multi-axle chassis as even the lightest unit requires a GVW of more than 100,000lbs.
