Yale ERC040VA overview

Yale ERC040VA features overview

Voltage

36 and 48 volt systems are available to meet a variety of application requirements. A solid-state, return-to-neutral feature reduces the possibility of inadvertent truck movement.


Drive

AC Transistor Traction Control

AC technology offers smooth acceleration and directional changes, as well as proportional regenerative braking. The controller converts battery power to three phase AC power, and adjusts frequency and current to meet performance demands. Performance control settings and extensive diagnostics are accessible by technicians through the dash display or a PC. A Vehicle Systems Manager utilizing CANbus technology monitors and controls key truck components and systems. The advanced thermal management system keeps component temperature and gradually adjusts performance to prevent damage to key components.


Power Assisted Braking

Power Assisted Braking is accomplished via the VSM. The VSM monitors brake line pressure. When this pressure exceeds a set threshold, the VSM sends a signal to the traction controller to decelerate the traction motor proportionally to the brake pressure. The higher the brake pedal pressure being applied, the more quickly the truck will decelerate. Duo-servo hydraulic brakes are self-adjusting and self-energizing for reduced pedal effort. The master cylinder is sealed and has an external fluid level sensor connected to a warning indicator on the display. A foot applied/hand-released parking brake is manually adjustable and has an audible warning if the operator leaves the truck without applying the brake. The standard Auto Deceleration System automatically slows the truck when the operator’s foot is removed from the accelerator pedal, extending brake life.


Foot Directional Control Pedal (FDC) (Optional)

The foot directional control pedal is a highly productive directional/accelerator pedal. One pedal allows the operator to change direction and acceleration, reducing operator movement and resulting in increased productivity.


Hydraulic Components

A transistor control hydraulic system is powered by a brushless, AC induction motor for long life and low noise. The motor and pump are designed for exceptional performance.


Hydrostatic Power Steering

Hydrostatic power steering is standard, and the all-hydraulic design gives precise, reliable control while eliminating mechanical linkages and road shocks at the steering wheel. An infinitely adjustable tilt steering column provides excellent operator comfort and visibility.


Handling

Frame

The frame is a unitized construction, stress tested for durability. An integral step is provided for easy entry and exit. The truck has a two-piece floor plate that can be easily lifted out for service access. An easily removable counterweight top cover gives easy access to components. A stamped steel dash and gas spring-assisted hood allow easy changing of the battery. The battery compartment can be fitted with rollers.


Safety

Steering axle

The steering axle is a one-piece ductile iron casting mounted on elastic cushions that reduce shock and provide a softer ride. The Continuous Stability System enhances truck stability in an uneven, maintenance-free design, without compromising uneven surface travel.


Cabin & Equipment

Operator Interface Display

The repositioned display is conveniently located in the upper right area of the operator’s compartment. The display includes an hour meter, LCD display for status codes and descriptions, battery discharge indicator with lift interrupt, warning indicator for brake fluid, performance mode indicator, and parking brake indicator. The display also permits access for service technicians to adjust performance control settings, allowing the truck to be customized to meet customer applications. Additionally, extensive diagnostics allow service technicians to quickly troubleshoot problems. Operator selectable performance modes are standard. Options for operator passwords and a pre-shift operator checklist are also available.
