Product Overview
BYD EL20 is a 2.0-ton four-pivot balanced heavy seat electric forklift. Relying on BYD's mature new energy electronic control technology, the four-wheel chassis structure is stable, taking into account indoor storage and stacking and outdoor transshipment operations in the factory area. The vehicle runs smoothly, has strong adaptability to working conditions, and has good environmental protection performance with pure electric drive. It is a practical model for production plants and logistics warehouses to realize the electric replacement of fuel forklifts.
II. Core product advantages
1. Four-wheel stable chassis for smooth and reliable heavy-duty operation
The vehicle adopts a classic four-pivot balance weight structure, the center of gravity of the whole vehicle is balanced, and the bearing stability is good. The rated load is 2 tons, the load center distance is 500mm, and the standard 3-meter lifting gantry meets the needs of conventional industrial cargo stacking and pallet transshipment. Adequate ground clearance can adapt to the slightly bumpy road in the factory area, and can operate normally in multiple scenes indoors and outdoors. The turning radius is moderate, and the steering is flexible in the standard warehouse roadway. The site adaptation range is wide.
2. AC electronic control power system, stable operation rhythm
Equipped with AC AC electronic control system, equipped with 8.5kW drive motor and 12kW lifting motor, the power output is smooth and soft, and the start and stop are smooth. The no-load driving speed is 15km/h, and the full-load driving speed is 14km/h. The lifting speed can match the daily operation beat of loading and unloading stacks. Equipped with 80V/280Ah large-capacity battery, the battery life is stable, and it can support continuous operation in a single shift. Pure electric operation, no exhaust gas is generated during the operation, suitable for clean workshops with strict environmental control such as food, medicine, and electronics.
3. Humanized driving layout, easy to work for a long time
The seat, operating handle and pedal positions are ergonomically fitted, effectively relieving the fatigue caused by long-term continuous operation. The running noise of the whole vehicle is controlled within 80dB (A), and the working environment is quiet. The vehicle is equipped with a top guard and a hydraulic braking system. The braking response is timely, the operation is simple and easy to understand, and the new driver can get started quickly.
4. Low maintenance workload and economical long-term use
The AC drive motor is a brushless structure with few daily maintenance items and small part loss. The hydraulic system pressure is stable, the whole machine runs stably and has excellent durability. Compared with traditional internal combustion forklifts, there is no need to consume fuel, and there is no need to change engine consumables such as oil and three filters regularly, which can effectively control the operating expenses of the equipment throughout the cycle.
