EPX 16 Clark electric forklift specs & dimensions (2008 - 2008)

Brakes

Regenerative braking returns energy into the battery, not into the brakes in the form of heat and is standard on the EPX. This is accomplished one of three ways; via releasing the accelerator pedal, changing direction of travel or applying the service brake. Using regenerative braking also prolongs the life of the truck’s service brakes.

Hydraulic System

One AC motor for lifting and steering operation. A flow control valve ensures that steering has priority. A linear potentiometer on the lift handle provides fully proportional lift. To conserve energy, the motor only runs as fast as needed, and its speed can be adjusted to meet attachment needs. The pump motor is designed to reduce steering and lift noise.

Upright

Sealed and canted rollers minimize deflection and free-play in both the upright and carriage. Six carriage load rollers spread out the load significantly improving roller life. Side thrust rollers help prevent racking during off-center loading, and massive high-strength steel fork bars significantly extend component life. Visibility is critical to an operator’s performance and safety. CLARK’s nested upright rails provide positive rail interlock and a narrow “column” to maximize the vision window. The overhead guard safety bars run parallel to the operator’s line of sight, resulting in less product damage when picking and pulling loads from rack locations. A clear, unobstructed view also protects your most valuable asset – your employees.

Safety

The ramp start feature provides additional torque to eliminate roll back when starting on an incline. The EPX-series has a CE certificate and conforms to European safety standards.

Miscellaneous standard

A complete light package and an amber strobe beacon lamp, a multi-function diagnostic dash display with hour meter and battery discharge indicator with lift interrupt is standard. The standard painting is CLARK-green, while the operator’s compartment and upright are black.
