TMHE offers a comprehensive range of cold store equipment, ranging from hand pallet trucks to very narrow aisle (VNA) equipment, automated storage solutions as well as counterbalanced forklifts and racking solutions.
The standard BT product specification is suitable for operation in stores to -10ºC without cold store protection. Some condensation will occur during the in-out work cycle and the truck must therefore always be parked outside the cold store when not in use and for charging and maintenance schedules.
To get the truck working good also in very cold stores, as down to -30°C there needs to be some adaptations. The viscosity of the oil used in this type of application to cope with the wide differences in operating temperatures will cause some reduction in truck performance during the stay in period of the shift. The largest threat to the truck is the condensation mentioned above. So most important is to let the truck dry up before entering and exiting the cold store. The key point is that the condensation must not be allowed to freeze on the truck at any time. Heated cabin versions are available on the BT Reflex and the BT Vector VCE150A.
The battery must never be left standing idle inside the cold store for long periods. Condensation must not be allowed to freeze on the truck.
