Handle heavy loads for indoor pallet storage, retrieval and transportation

Yale electric lift trucks must pass the same demanding 15-day environment test as ICE trucks, handling freezing temperatures, blistering heat, 30% grades and more. The ERC-VH is ready for loads up to 12,00 pounds in the most demanding conditions.

• ICE-like drive axle assemblly is designed with a cast ductile iron housing and full floating axle to withstand heavy loads
• Hydraulic components are industrial grade, including O-ring face seal fittings, hydraulic valves, fine micron filters and long-lasting hoist and tilt cylinders
• Mast channels built with one-piece, high-strength rolled steel
• CanBus electrical system offers strong performance and reduced wiring and electrical connections for improved reliability and excellent serviceability

Operator comfort enhances productivity and reduces fatigue. The ERC-VH prioritizes visibility, smooth, precise mast positioning, low-effort steering and human-engineerred controls to keep operators going strong, all shift long.

• Large, textured grab handles and deep, anti-skid steps for easy entry and exit
• Comfort-optimized seats, with no-cinch ELR seat belts and six inches of fore/aft adjustment with 13 latching positions
• Infinitely adjustable standard steering column through 26-degree range
• Rear drive handle with horn button
• Accutouch minilever electro-hydraulic controls (optional) offer shorter reach and throw, requiring considerably less effort to operate compared to mechanical levers
• Open floor plate design offers up to 11% more floor space
• Power-assisted braking reduces pedal effort, with ergonomic layout for greater comfort

The ERC-VH uses proven AC technology coupled with the Intellix VSM (vehicle systems manager) to provide enhanced performance through the usable battery discharge cycle.

• Selectable performance modes allow truck performance to be tailored to real-time conditions and operator skill
• AC motors provide powerful acceleration, fast travel speeds and fast lift and lower speeds
• Thermal management system enables high productivity while protecting key truck components

The largest share of money spent on a lift truck comes from operating costs, thrusting maintenance requirements, ease of service, durability and power costs front and center.

• AC traction and hydraulic motors completely eliminate brushes and rigging, reducing maintenance requirements and cost
• Disc brake system only requires periodic lubrication change at 4,000 hour intervals and automatically uses traction motor braking to reduce burden on service brakes
• Easy component access, including easily-removable floor plates and a rear-hinged hood that opens nearly 80 degrees
