TECHNICAL INFORMATION
ERGONOMICS & COMFORT
The light, spring-loaded design of our RPX Series’ steer handle requires
less effort, and allows operators to find their ideal operating position. A
full 190º steering range enables smoother navigation within tight spaces.
Ergonomic layout of the truck’s control head includes rotary-thumb
travel speed controls, which can be operated from either side.
Ergonomic placement of lift, lower and horn buttons provides intuitive
fingertip control. Soft-touch switches also simplify load lifting and
lowering.
Standard cruise control allows operator to maintain high-speed travel,
without the need to continuously hold down button. Optional coast
control allows operator to let the truck coast for more efficient order
picking. Optional feature is actuated by a manual toggle lever at the
base of the handle.
Rubber padded, intermediate high speed handrail features thick tubular
construction for greater dependability. Large, sealed buttons provide
operator with greater control of fork raise/lower and truck high speed
travel commands, as well as horn functions. It’s bolted to the truck
frame for faster replacement or repair.
The RPX is designed with the largest operator platform in the industry.
Combined with a compact hood design, operators have several
comfortable positions, to reduce fatigue and promote sustained
productivity. Soft, cushioned platform mat provides added comfort.
EFFICIENCY & CONTROL
Advanced motor controller/AC inverter electronically distributes power
as needed to the AC drive motor or DC pump motor. System offers
programmable regenerative neutral braking and proportional plugging.
Its AC design eliminates forward and reverse contactors, with electronic
travel speed control for precise, efficient performance.
An optional multi-function LCD includes three hour meters and Personal
Identification Number (PIN) codes to restrict truck access for greater
fleet control. It provides access to customized performance settings
and displays a battery discharge indicator with graphic representation of
the remaining battery charge. The optional feature also offers on-board
diagnostics and troubleshooting without the need for a separate hand
tool.
EFFICIENT PERFORMANCE & GREATER
UPTIME
Heavy-duty 5.2 Hp, brushless, three phase AC drive motor, provides
high power and torque to handle tough applications. Motor delivers peak
performance throughout the battery range. Longer run times per battery
charge are achieved by using less energy per cycle.
RPX includes an IP65 rated sealed controller. Sealed switches and logic
boards allow operation in multiple environments including coolers, wet
rooms and freezers down to -20ºF (-28.9ºC).
Digital CAN communication between the controller and control handle
uses just four wires in the control handle harness to send multiple
signals. Hall Effect speed and acceleration control sensor simplifies
maintenance and limits downtime due to its non-contact design with
fewer moving parts, and no mechanical wiping action, potentiometers,
or heaters. Elimination of directional and lift contactors combined with
enhanced thermal capabilities mean optimum performance and minimal
downtime.
Electrical braking system uses regenerative motor torque prior to disc
brake actuation, for less component wear and longer life. The spring-
applied/electronically released disc brake system eliminates the need for
adjustments. Brake actuation occurs when the handle is in the upper
and lower braking range.
RUGGED FORK ASSEMBLY
Forks are 9¼” wide, constructed from ¼” plate steel, and designed with
a reinforced tip for extra durability. Tapered ¼” steel fork slides facilitate
pallet entry and exit without the use of entry rollers or discs. Various
lengths available for both double and single pallet fork options. All
come with a standard 27” wide fork spread.
Steel push rods are constructed from 1½” x 1½” solid bar stock to
absorb high impact shocks caused by dock boards and dock plates
and never need replacing. Push-type design achieves full 6” of lift
without tie rods extending beyond the fork plane, preventing the
possibility of damage and reducing maintenance costs.
Tie rods are positively aligned and pinned, so no field adjustments are
required. Full-length, angle iron reinforcements enhance strength to
reduce torsion, for increased durability and longer life. Each fork extends
under the battery box for greater strength.
DURABLE DESIGNS
The RPX Series is manufactured with a rugged frame for tough
applications. Powder coat paint, inside and out, delivers a durable, high
gloss, scratch resistant finish. Heavy-duty integrated lift system (DC
motor, lift pump and fluid reservoir) includes a check valve and flow
regulator. Lift limit switch is not needed since the controller cuts the
pump. Return line filtering protects the system against environmental
contaminants. A quiet, spiral beveled gear drive system with sealed ball
bearings provides solid performance with low steer effort.
LOWER OPERATING COSTS
Brushless AC drive motor uses fewer components and requires less
maintenance for lower operating costs. Easily accessible, rotation
sensing encoder is externally mounted on the drive motor for simplified
replacement. Motor and controller feature thermal protection system to
slow or shut down truck in response to high temperatures.
Unique steer race and enclosed frame design help keep major
components (such as drive motor, controller and hydraulic system) free
from debris kicked up by the drive tire for less maintenance and longer
life. Heavy-duty caster wheel design uses single-point height adjustment
and angled side bracket to prevent plate hang-ups. Accessible grease
fittings on swivel and axle promote routine maintenance.
One-piece cover with two-bolt removal makes access to the drive unit,
and major components quick and easy. Five nut removal of the drive
tire simplifies replacement when needed. All lubrication fittings are easily
accessible with the truck upright and the battery in place.
Optional auto-lift feature ensures forks are lifted 2.5" during operation,
providing ample clearance to reduce pallet and or load carry component
damage.
Electrical braking system uses regenerative motor torque prior to disc
brake actuation, for less component wear and longer life. The spring-
applied/electronically released disc brake system eliminates the need for
adjustments.
