EP North America has debuted two new forklifts powered by lithium-ion batteries. The CPD45F8/50F8 and EFLA251 help warehouse and DC managers provide lithium-ion solutions that will upgrade fleets of diesel and LPG warehouse vehicles.
“EP North America continues to expand its portfolio to solve a wider range of material handling applications, leveraging our unparalleled strength in lithium-powered solutions,” said Jason Bratton, general manager, EP North America. “Whether leading occasional or multi-shift operations, these lithium-ion powered solutions provide exceptional value, quality and dependability that we believe our dealer network and their customers have been looking for.”
The CPD45F8/50F8 is an IPX4 Rated, pneumatic forklift designed for outdoor use and applications up to 10,000 lbs. The CPD45F8/50F8 utilizes an integrated EP Energy 80V lithium-ion battery, requiring zero maintenance. By removing the internal combustion engine, the units eliminate vibration, heat, noise and exhaust during use.
EFLA251 is a Class I forklift engineered to provide a direct alternative for Class IV LP equivalent machines. Featuring a lifting capacity of 5,000 lbs., the EFLA251 is powered by an EP Energy 80V Lithium-ion battery with onboard charging as a standard feature and is capable of fully recharging in just over two hours, eliminating dependencies on LPG.
