Received my first SYS-CART 495.020 yesterday.
Wanted to design "stack combinations" before I received it but I was unable to find any dimensional information.
The new SYS-CART works with the old and new design containers but there are dimensional differences:
the total height of a SYS-CART + an old design systainer 1 = 250mm
the total height of a SYS-CART + a new design systainer 1 = 252mm
Height differences are due to two things:
(1) because of foot design differences, the two systainer designs are supported differently on the cart - even though they both lock properly.
(2) the two systainer designs have slightly different overall heights (when you include the feet)
A few other notes about the new SYS-CART - some of which may be obvious:
- It's much higher than a custom designed unit can be
- It has a larger footprint, making it impossible to have stack widths = sum of container widths.
- Owing to the larger casters, they roll much easier over uneven floors than my old custom design with the little casters.
- The locking casters are really nice. Ever lean against a stack and have it roll out from under you? This could be considered a safety feature.
