The heavy-duty module in the PU series — 2000g rated, 48mm no-load float gap.
Overview
The PU2000G is the heavy-duty module in Gleagle's push-up lineup — 2kg rated, 48mm no-load float gap. Same self-developed control architecture as the 3kg flagship, scaled for large sculptures and premium displays.
* Extended float (55mm) requires payload reduction to ~50% of rated max. Measured at 25°C, no-load, tolerance ±1mm.
Watch the PU2000G in action. It provides a 48mm no-load float gap, with height decreasing as payload increases.
Product Overview
Some display pieces are simply heavy — a full-size sculpture, a metal trophy, a product replica, an engineering sample. The PU2000G was built for exactly that range. It supports a rated 2kg payload and provides a 48mm no-load float gap, centers whatever you place on it automatically, and runs 24/7 on a simple DC 12V supply. It covers the heavy end of custom display projects.
This electromagnetic suspension system requires a little practice to operate — first-time users should practice finding the magnetic balance point. Once mastered, the PU2000G delivers reliable, energy-efficient 24/7 levitation for retail, gifting and exhibition environments.
Mechanical
Concentric build: a Ø200 mm steel base plate carries the drive core, with four M3 through holes on the Ø190 mm bolt circle — the module bolts straight into your custom base. All dimensions in millimeters.
| Payload | Float Gap (approx.) |
|---|---|
| No load | 48mm |
| 400g | 40mm |
| 1kg | 25mm |
| 2kg (full load) | Confirmed for your configuration |
1. Four M3 through holes on the Ø190 mm bolt circle (90° apart). 2. Tolerances: mounting holes ±0.2mm, other dimensions ±0.5mm, float gap ±1mm (measured at 25°C). The heavier the payload, the narrower the gap — for display pieces where visual height matters, stay within 50% of rated load. STEP files and DXF drawings available on request.
Options
Four standard single-disc magnet configurations trade float height against stability and load capacity — heavier objects want a larger diameter, lighter objects can float higher.
Rule of thumb: the heavier the object, the larger the magnet diameter you need. D100×18 (standard) is recommended for payloads approaching 2kg; D60×12 is for lighter display pieces where float height matters most. Custom magnet configurations on request.
1. Tall objects, irregular shapes (center of gravity off the geometric center), or payloads over 1 kg — go with the D100 for maximum stability. If magnet size is not a constraint, choose D100 directly — it is the most stable option.
2. Light objects (under 400 g) with regular shapes — spheres, cylinders, square boxes — the D60 works: the smallest magnet in this series, easiest to hide inside your product. The trade-off is lower stability — please test thoroughly and evaluate the risk before ordering.
3. D80 and D70 are the middle grounds — choose mainly by the space available inside your product. Rule of thumb: within the space you have, go as large as you can — a larger diameter means better stability, a wider controlled field area, and a broader sensing range.
Wireless Power Option
Add a spiral planar coil pair: a transmitting (TX) coil in the base and a receiving (RX) coil on the floater. It powers LEDs or other small loads on the floating object — no battery, no wires across the gap. Two placement rules decide how much power you actually get.
Mount the transmitting coil directly on the system's magnet ring — flush against it. No standoff, no offset: the coil face sits on the ring.
Mount the receiving coil at the bottom face of the floating magnet — or at minimum, level with the magnet's bottom face. Never recessed above it.
Wireless power transfer is a complex system that demands extensive testing and tuning. Every product shape — and every coil mounting position — shifts the resonant frequency. Only at the optimal resonance point does the system run at its lowest power draw while delivering maximum received power — and the brightest LEDs. This is precision engineering: if you want the absolute best result, send us your product and our engineers will tune the resonance for you.

Technology
Like poles repel — the PU2000G turns that one line of physics into a hybrid levitation architecture. A magnet ring carries the load passively on the vertical axis: pure permanent-magnet repulsion, zero circuits, zero power. Active electronics are reserved for the one thing passive physics cannot do — centering. Fully differential sensing channels watch the floater on X and Y, and an in-house slow-servo MID control loop nudges it back before any drift becomes visible.
The magnet ring holds the load with zero holding power — physics, not electronics.
Fully differential X/Y channels cancel thermal drift by construction.
Real-time correction by Gleagle's in-house MID control — centered means zero coil current.
Clamps the operating point under load, drifts back to zero current at idle — standby in the fraction-of-a-watt class.
Moving a 2kg payload means real energy in the field — generic heavy modules fight the heat by throttling power, which costs you float height and stability. The PU2000G barely makes heat in the first place: the load rides passively on the magnet ring, so the coils draw current only while correcting — and sit at zero current once centered. Static draw stays in the fraction-of-a-watt class, roughly a fifth of pull-up designs. Less power in means less heat out: the module runs cool through 24/7 retail operation, without giving up its 48mm no-load float gap.
Everything is developed in-house: PCB design, control circuitry, magnetics and coil winding, by Gleagle's 15+ R&D engineers. No outsourced core technology.

1. Levitation height tolerance: ±1mm. 2. Maximum height is measured under no-load conditions at 25°C. 3. Height decreases as payload increases — confirmed reference points are 48mm at no load, 40mm at 400g and 25mm at 1kg; the full 2kg gap is configuration-specific.

Guide
From the official Gleagle user manual. A few attempts and you will find the balance point with ease.
Place the base on a flat surface free from ferromagnetic materials. Connect the DC 12V adapter and turn on the power.
Hold the magnet disc over the base at about 15cm (6 inches), aligned with the center. Slowly move it downward — the balance point sits approximately 48mm above the base surface.
When the magnet feels almost weightless — neither falling nor pushed away — release it gently. If it falls, start over from Step 2.
Once the disc floats stably, gently place your object on it, centered vertically. If the disc drops, protect the base with foam padding and try again.
The magnet disc may detach and strike the base forcefully — consider placing a soft plate on the base while practicing. Auto-shutoff: the built-in temperature sensor cuts power if the base exceeds the safety threshold. If levitation fails after several attempts, wait at least one minute before retrying.

Support
Does the PU2000G work with 110V, 120V, 220V and 230V mains power?
Yes. The supplied wide-input AC adapter accepts 100–240VAC, covering common 110/120V and 220/230/240V mains supplies. No separate voltage converter is needed. The adapter supplies DC 12V to the module. Select the correct country-specific plug (EU, US, UK, AU or another local type) when ordering. Find your country's plug type →
What is the maximum weight the PU2000G can levitate?
2kg rated, 2.5kg peak. For the best visual height and long-term stability we recommend staying within 1kg — roughly the 50% load rule. The 48mm figure is measured at no load; reference measurements are 40mm at 400g and 25mm at 1kg. The extended configuration reaches 55mm at reduced payload.
What kinds of products is the PU2000G best for?
Anything regular-shaped, non-ferromagnetic and up to 2kg — large sculptures, metal trophies, product replicas, engineering samples and premium decor. It is the module behind our heaviest levitating display projects.
How is the PU2000G different from the smaller PU modules?
Same control architecture — in-house slow-servo MID control with near-zero power draw — scaled up for heavy payloads and a 48mm no-load float gap. For lighter objects see the PU300G and PU500G; for even heavier loads, the 3kg PU3000G flagship.
Module or finished product — which do I need?
The PU2000G is the bare levitation module: you integrate it into your own base, packaging or product. If you want a ready-to-use display out of the box, look at our finished products — for example the Programmable LED Levitating Display Stand, which adds world-exclusive wireless LED lighting to the same push-up platform.
Can I order a single sample?
Yes. MOQ is 1 unit for the standard PU2000G. Evaluation samples can ship as fast as 24 hours via DHL/FedEx/UPS. We encourage testing a sample with your actual product before placing bulk orders.
Do you offer OEM/ODM customization?
Yes — magnet disc size, float gap, load tuning, coil winding, housing, PCB layout, firmware and branding. Custom projects typically require 7–15 business days, depending on complexity and the agreed production scope.
What certifications does the PU2000G have?
Gleagle is ISO 9001:2015 certified. Available compliance documents depend on the exact module, configuration and destination market; please confirm the applicable documents before ordering, and each unit undergoes burn-in testing before shipment with individual calibration. Third-party factory inspection is accepted.
Does the 2kg payload rating include the floating magnet?
No. The 2kg rating refers to the display object and does not include the floating magnet. Send both the object weight and your preferred magnet configuration so we can check the complete setup.
Can I float an object containing electronics or a speaker magnet?
Use caution. Ferromagnetic housings and additional permanent magnets — including speaker magnets — can disturb levitation. Strong magnetic fields may also damage sensitive electronics. Compatibility depends on the complete assembly, so an actual prototype test is required before production.
How should I position the center of gravity, and will the object keep a fixed orientation?
Keep the center of gravity aligned with the object's geometric center and the system's vertical axis. An off-center load can tilt, rotate too fast or fall. Rotation is not actively controlled, so a fixed orientation cannot be guaranteed; a balanced, regular shape gives the best chance of a near-still display.
What float gap can I expect with a 1kg object?
Our reference configuration measures 25mm at 1kg. Final height still depends on magnet size, object shape, center of gravity and assembly, so we confirm it using the actual object or a representative prototype.
What happens to the floating object during a power outage?
The floater will drop onto the base when power is lost. Add a protective pad or enclosure, and design the display so the falling object cannot be damaged.
Can the PU2000G provide wireless power to the floating object?
Yes, as a custom engineering project rather than a standard PU2000G feature. Continuous output depends on the receiving coil area, working gap and electrical load. Provide your required DC voltage and continuous power in watts for a feasibility review and separate quotation.
Can you ship internationally, and are import duties included?
Yes. A full delivery address and postcode are required to calculate freight. Samples normally ship DAP, so import duties, taxes and local clearance charges are not included. DDP can be requested where available and is quoted separately.

Q"I want to float a 1.5kg metal trophy — which magnet should I choose?" — Mr. R., United Kingdom
AAt 1.5 kg you go straight to the D100 × 18 standard configuration — the larger magnet keeps heavy, top-heavy objects noticeably more stable. Expect a float gap around 22–25mm at that payload. If the trophy can be lightened toward 1 kg, the gap opens up to roughly 25mm and the display looks much better. If you are not sure, send us the figure’s weight and dimensions and we will confirm the configuration before you order. — Mr. Luo, Chief Engineer, Levitation Systems
Q"Can the rotation be controlled precisely?" — Mr. K., Japan
ANot by the base — and that is by design. The magnetic field is rotationally symmetric, like a frictionless perfect bearing: it neither drives nor brakes the spin. But the object you place decides 90% of it — center the weight and use regular shapes for a near-still display, or keep a touch of deliberate asymmetry for a slow, elegant rotation.
