How Does the EP14-20(C)N2T Compare to Traditional Forklifts?
The EP14-20(C)N2T outperforms traditional diesel or gas forklifts with zero emissions, lower operational noise, and reduced maintenance costs. Its lithium-ion battery charges faster and lasts longer than lead-acid alternatives, while the compact design allows superior maneuverability in narrow aisles. Energy recovery systems further enhance efficiency, making it 30% more cost-effective over time compared to internal combustion models.
What Are the Key Specifications of the EP14-20(C)N2T?
This model offers a 1.4-2 ton load capacity, 24V/48V lithium-ion battery options, and a lifting height of up to 6 meters. It features a travel speed of 12 km/h, a turning radius under 1.5 meters, and optional AGV compatibility for automated workflows. The IP54-rated electrical components ensure durability in humid or dusty environments.
The EP14-20(C)N2T’s compact dimensions (2,450mm length x 1,150mm width) enable operation in confined spaces where traditional forklifts can’t maneuver. Its 48V battery system delivers 18 kW peak power output, sufficient for simultaneous lifting and travel operations. The dual front-wheel drive configuration provides exceptional traction on inclines up to 15%, while the 80Ah battery capacity supports 8-10 hours of continuous medium-intensity use.

| Service Weight | 3,250kg | 3,800kg |
| Max Travel Speed | 12 km/h | 10 km/h |
Where Is the EP14-20(C)N2T Most Effectively Deployed?
Ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical storage, and e-commerce warehouses, the EP14-20(C)N2T operates efficiently in temperature-controlled environments (-20°C to 45°C). Its corrosion-resistant chassis suits cold storage facilities, while precise hydraulic control enables delicate handling in electronics manufacturing. Multi-shift operations benefit from rapid opportunity charging during breaks.
Why Choose Lithium-Ion Batteries for This Forklift Model?
Lithium-ion batteries provide 8-hour continuous operation with 1.5-hour fast charging, eliminating battery replacement needs. They maintain consistent power output throughout discharge cycles, unlike lead-acid batteries that lose efficiency. Built-in battery management systems (BMS) prevent overcharging and optimize energy use, extending the forklift’s lifespan by up to 40% compared to conventional power systems.
How Does the EP14-20(C)N2T Enhance Workplace Safety?
The forklift features automatic speed reduction on inclines, LED warning lights, and emergency stop systems. Its stability index exceeds ISO 6055 standards, with load-sensing hydraulics that prevent tip-overs. The operator cabin includes anti-slip flooring, ergonomic joystick controls, and a 360° camera system with object detection alerts.
What Maintenance Strategies Prolong the Forklift’s Lifespan?
Implement predictive maintenance using IoT sensors that monitor motor temperature, brake wear, and hydraulic pressure. Lubricate mast chains every 500 operating hours and calibrate sensors quarterly. Battery health is maintained through partial discharge cycles (20%-80%), with firmware updates delivered via OTA (over-the-air) to optimize energy management algorithms.
The integrated telematics system tracks 38 operational parameters in real time, providing maintenance alerts through cloud-based analytics. Hydraulic filters should be replaced every 1,200 hours or when pressure drops below 12 MPa. Conduct thermal imaging scans annually to identify potential electrical hotspots in the power distribution system. Proper maintenance can reduce downtime by 60% and extend service intervals by 2.5x compared to manual inspection protocols.
“The EP14-20(C)N2T represents a paradigm shift in electric material handling. Its modular design allows customization—we’ve integrated it with warehouse management systems for real-time load tracking. The regenerative braking system recovers 15% of energy during deceleration, which is critical for operations targeting net-zero emissions.”
