Electric lift trucks

Hyster introduces its next generation of electric lift trucks. The E30-40XN Series delivers lifting capacities of 3,000 to 4,000 pounds, and offers 16-percent more floor space and newly designed operator compartments in the cab. Relocated multifunction displays are designed to enhance visibility and ensure precise pallet control. By utilizing AC motors and transistor controller technology for both the traction and hydraulic systems, the company reduced the frequency and cost of maintenance. The Hyster-designed thermal management system continuously monitors the E30-40XN series’ controller and motor temperature and, upon identifying irregularity, the system protects the component by automatically adjusting truck performance. www.hyster.com/
