Set up example:

Best used in cantilever or 'hinged' style lifts, the inflatable jack may be used for vertical lifting when rigged so lateral movement of the lifted weight is restricted. Working on volume rather than pressure to create the lift, working from 8-10 psi / .5-.7 bar depending on the model. Unlike high pressure, low pressure inflatable jacks are able to lift maximum rated capacity at full height of the air bag. The Hypalon and Neoprene bags deliver superior duribility and strength, making them the number one choice for low pressure equipment among rescue squads, all branches of the US military, and civil defense agencies worldwide. Each inflatable jack comes with a 5 year manufacturer's warranty, but with normal care and maintenance, they should work well over 20 years trouble free. The low pressure inflatable jacks are CE certified.
