The EP-CB range of 3- and 4-wheel 48V and 72V electric counterbalance products from Cat® Lift Trucks gives drivers everything they need to do their job efficiently.
At the same time, it reduces operating costs to maximise profitability. These economical and easy-to-handle forklift trucks, with capacities from 1.0 to 3.5 tonnes, cover all application environments. They can carry out warehouse duties as well as outdoor tasks – for which IPX4 waterproofing is specified.
Smooth and comfortable electric forklifts
Cat® EP-CB forklifts are equipped with a host of ergonomic and safety features which allow drivers to work quickly, comfortably and confidently.
Automatic increases in torque maintain steady, fluid movement when climbing slopes or carrying heavy loads. A high-stability design, with a low centre of gravity, gives a further sense of confidence and smoothness in all operations
Fast but safe
The latest electric hydraulic steering enables fast, precise and safe manoeuvring. A variety of standard and optional safety systems automatically adjust travel, lift and tilt speeds according to the truck’s activities at any moment.
Economical
High productivity combines with great energy efficiency and robust design to drive down the total cost of ownership and increase profit for the truck user’s business.
Lifetime costs are lowered by the EP-CB trucks’ high-endurance construction. This includes a one-piece frame, a cast counterweight and a rear axle built to IC engine forklift standard.
A large, easy-to-read LCD display, giving clear information on condition, helps drivers and service engineers to use and maintain the truck optimally.
Wide-ranging
The EP-CB range adds several models to the extensive Cat electric counterbalance line-up, which extends up to 12.0 tonnes. It offers 48V 4-wheel models from 1 0 to 2.5 tonnes, 72V 4-wheel models at 3.0 and 3.5 tonnes, and 48V 3-wheel models from 1.3 to 2.0 tonnes.
Along with an impressive standard specification, each lift truck can be fitted with optional features to match the user’s needs and wishes perfectly.
