Viewing Forklift Trucks » Electric 3 wheels, 48V Specifications Model Voltage Capacity EP16K T 48V 1.6 ton EP18K T 48V 1.8 ton EP20K T 48V 2.0 ton Features Description: EPK-T models feature the exclusive Caterpillar MicroCommand controller, which combines economy of operation with control precision, system protection, pre-set performance parameters and personalised programming. Rack and pinion steering on the twin-wheel design steer axle working with state of the art electronics results in sure, slip-free steering precision in all situations, even on slippery or damaged work surfaces. When work conditions call for intensive short shuttle work, or when ramp activity is frequent, there is no match to the productive power of the dual-motor 48Volt EPK T Series trucks. Versatility is second nature to these trucks. Equipped with the fully programmable MicroCommand controller, which includes a selection of pre-set operating modes, it takes only moments to set the best balance between productivity and economy, for your work situation. Unique built in protection systems help reduce your total ownership costs by letting you decide on the optimum balance between performance and energy efficiency – based on your application and productivity constraints. And if the situation changes, it only takes moments to re-set the truck to the new environment. This same, advanced controller also features run-time system monitoring to protect components from damage during operation while warning you of impending service requirements or problems. Comfort Features: Ergonomic, quiet and functional operator compartment with generous, all round visibility and well laid out controls, for a highly productive work environment. Low step height and handy grab bars enable easy on/off access. Generous foot and legroom – even on the most compact models. Adjustable full suspension seat and tilt steering column ensure a comfortable driving position for any operator. Fingertip hydraulic controls contribute to a relaxed operation and infinite precision, no matter the nature or configuration of goods handled. The instrument panel is not only informative and comprehensive, but keeps your driver informed of machine running status and potential problems. Extremely quiet operation is one of the design objectives, which Caterpillar has achieved on the complete electric range. Motor and pump operation is extremely quiet for a comfortable working environment. Standard Features: Dual 48V motors fitted to front axle. Short turning radius with permanent power to the (front) drive wheels. Twin-wheel steer axle improves stability, lowers ground pressure and reduces tire wear. Electronic wheel angle sensor communicates power and torque requirement to the drive wheels ensuring safe, slip- free traction on all floor surfaces. Fingertip hydraulic controls are fitted as standard. Manual (MC) hydraulic controls are available on option. Caterpillar MicroCommand controller with 5 pre-set operating modes. Programmable performance parameters for job-matched energy requirement and efficiency. Run-time diagnostics and fault memory ensure continuous surveillance of main operating systems. Characteristics: Commonality of masts between 48V and 24V models ensures economic inventorying of mast components for fleet owners. Regenerative braking ensures efficient use of battery energy while preserving service brakes. Easy service access. Run time-and self diagnostics along with the fault memory function, simplifies troubleshooting operations and reduces downtime.
