DCD220-12 Kalmar diesel forklift specs & dimensions (1997 - 2018)

The Base for High Performance

We have equipped the Kalmar 20 – 30 tonne range with excellent drive trains. Engine, gearbox, drive shaft and wet disc brakes – everything has been built and combined into a unit with the highest performance and durability possible. The new drive trains provide a driving experience and level of control throughout the work cycle that has to be experienced to be believed.

Powerful Low Emission Engines

We can offer two different power trains. The engines provide high torque even at low revolutions. The engines fall well within the latest emission requirements and they also conform to the new noise power standards. Stage 3 engines require more powerful cooling than before and the trucks come fitted with an efficient and easy-to-service split cooling system – for air and fuel and coolant to the engine and gearbox. The air filter is a two-stage Donaldson with a pre-cleaner in stage one and a finer cellulose filter for the smallest particles in stage two. This can also be replaced by a metallic or dust particle filter as an option. The filter has a high cleaning capacity and is easy to replace.

Electronic Controlled Transmission

We are using the Dana TE17000 series transmission. The gearbox has integrated electronic control, monitoring and intelligence. The gearbox has built-in reversing lock and modulation, providing safe and smooth gear changing. In addition, we also calibrate slipping before delivery to provide the best gear-changing characteristics depending on power train, wheel dimension and drive shaft. There are two optional grades of "intelligence" to choose: automatic gear-changing and electronic inching with controlled slipping.

Reducing Operating Costs

The Kalmar 20 – 25 range consists of a series of models that have been designed in every aspect to provide long life with minimum downtime. This has been achieved by using technical solutions and components, and by not subjecting the truck to built-in stresses that result in unnecessary wear and higher costs. In addition, we utilise optimised chassis modules, frames, electronically controlled power trains, wet disc brakes, more reliable and more efficient hydraulic systems.

Fast Service and Maintenance

The Kalmar 20 – 25 tonne range has been designed to provide the best possible access for maintenance. Tilting the cabin (LB version) and opening the engine cover exposes the entire power train with easy accessibility to all vital components and service points.

Masts

All masts are constructed on the free visibility principle and can be supplied with the area controlled free-lift system which, in terms of function, is extraordinarily reliable and secure. The robust mast profiles of high tensile steel are designed for high stresses and long life. The positioning of profiles improves the visibility from the operator’s seat by minimising obstruction of the field of vision. The cylinders contribute to this as well and are positioned in the “dead” angles of the mast. The long-life mast wheels are fitted with high quality conical roller bearings. The standard lifting equipment for all models is the duplex, visibility mast.

Fork carriages

The fork carriages are, in most deliveries, supplied with hydraulic side-shift and fork positioning. Our carriages are designed for optimal visibility and wider carriages are available as an option.

Forks

The forks are a one-piece forged design manufactured from high tensile steel and fitted with four upper rollers and two lower rollers on each fork. This solution provides both accurate and smooth fork movements as well as long service life. To improve handling flexibility and ease of changing between forks and other attachments, a fork shaft system is available. In this case, the forks are mounted on a separate fork holder.

Spirit delta

Spirit Delta is one of the best designed driving environments available in the industry. Priority has been given to ergonomics for the driver. After a demanding shift in a Spirit Delta, the driver should be alert and attentive, resulting in improved working safety. The overall design and all the adjustment options mean that the Spirit Delta will benefit every driver. Instruments and control layout allow the driver to see at a glance and have control over all the machine’s various functions, while at the same time allowing the driver to work in an efficient and relaxed way. Comfort, with regard to noise level, climate, lighting and accessibility is at the highest level possible. The operator of the Spirit Delta can have access to Kalmar’s range of intelligent efficiency and safety options in one place.
