Compact Building Maintenance Unit (BMU) 2000 Series

The CoxGomyl 2000 Series Building Maintenance Unit (BMU) is a reliable, high-quality façade access solution for low- to mid-rise buildings up to 130 m. Its simple, compact design combines dependable performance with the lowest possible maintenance effort.

Built to EN 1808:2015, the 2000 Series offers a 250 kg safe working load and a configurable aluminium cradle up to 2.5 m in length. Standard equipment such as fall-arrest PPE, overload protection, anti-collision protection and a safe, easy-to-use rescue system comes as standard, making it a dependable choice for reliable, long-term operation, even on demanding façades.

2000 Series Compact BMU Specifications

The 2000 Series Compact BMU is engineered around a balanced set of technical specifications that suit low- to mid-rise façade access work. Maximum outreach reaches 3,100 mm, paired with a 130 m lifting height that covers most buildings in this segment.

The luffing jib operates with a multi-layer drum hoist to manage a 250 kg rated load on an aluminium cradle available in three lengths. Power demand stays modest at 3 kVA from a standard three-phase supply, with control signals carried through copper cores within the suspension ropes.

Key Benefits of the Compact BMU 2000 Series

  • Lightweight design for retrofit on existing rails. The 2000 Series is engineered as a lightweight system that fits onto existing rail track installations. Roof load stays low, which supports retrofit work without the need for major structural reinforcement on most buildings.
  • One-day on-site installation. On-site installation is completed within a single day, and the unit is operational the same week. This compressed timeline limits disruption for building owners and speeds up handover to the operations team.
  • Premium engineering built to last. Components are specified for long service life on demanding façades. The 2000 Series Compact BMU continues to perform year after year, with no compromise on safety or output.
  • Premium quality at a competitive price. Owners receive a complete, ready-to-operate Compact BMU at a price point suited to mid-range projects. Value is delivered without trade-off on durability or function.
  • Simple maintenance and low ownership costs. A clean mechanical design keeps service requirements minimal. Lifecycle costs stay manageable, supporting predictable budgeting across the unit’s service life.

Standard Safety Features and EN 1808 Compliance

Safety is built into every 2000 Series Compact BMU as standard. The fall-arrest system protects operators in the suspended cradle, and load control prevents overloading at source. Cradle anti-collision with obstacle detection avoids contact with the façade or rooftop features during operation.

Emergency stop functions are fitted at both the cradle and the roofcar for immediate shutdown. A safe, easy-to-use rescue system supports operator recovery from suspended positions. The hoist over-speed device adds a further mechanical safeguard.

Every unit is built in compliance with EN 1808:2015 and carries the CE mark. This meets the leading European standard for suspended access equipment.

Optional Features for the 2000 Series BMU

The 2000 Series Compact BMU supports several optional features to match specific project requirements.

  • A 22 m cable reeler manages power supply on longer cable runs.
  • A wind anemometer mounted on the cradle gives direct measurement of conditions at the working face, supporting safe operation in changeable weather.
  • A rotating spreader in front of the jib aids stable cradle positioning on non-rectangular façades.

For taller buildings, a suspension-rope guide is recommended on heights over 40 m to control rope deflection. A pendant control station is also available for ground-level operation where access is required from outside the cradle.
