RCL C-30Li™ Loader
Helping ensure compliance with current and future environmental regulations, RCL’s C-30Li™ Loader has been developed as a zero emissions vehicle for GSE while remaining focused on the uncompromising quality our customers have become accustomed to for over 30 years.
The 96V Lithium-ion Smart Battery has sufficient capacity to sustain the energy demands of the loader through a rigorous daily duty cycle. Charging the battery is easy and rapid through either a smart charger or 400Hz Ground Power/jetbridge. And unlike our competitors, RCL's Lithium-ion Smart Battery is built and maintained in house -- if you ever have any issues, RCL is here to help.
The lithium-ion battery is estimated to last at least two times longer than a well-maintained lead acid battery thereby spreading the initial investment out over a significantly longer time period while reducing cost per kilowatt hour dramatically.
The lithium-ion solution is an efficient 96V system requiring only one battery with precision energy consumption control through a single controller.
Replacing the internal combustion engine with a maintenance free lithium-ion battery eliminates the need for regular preventive maintenance, significantly reducing total cost of ownership as a result of less time and people to support the battery operation.
The electric motor automatically times out after 2 minutes of no functions to preserve battery life. When a function is demanded by the operator through using the loader, the electric motor will instantly turn back on to meet said demand.
The lithium-ion battery has many fail-safes to prevent an operator from running down the battery below it's nominal voltage.
- The lithium-ion battery consists of sealed cells with no risk of acid spills and resultant environmental contamination.
Charging the lithium-ion battery is much faster than charging a conventional lead acid battery resulting in more in-service time and a lower investment in charging facilities and equipment.
Specifying a single 625amp hour lithium-ion battery to provide sufficient power to operate the loader through a complete daily duty cycle.
The lithium-ion battery guarantees efficient and fast charging time with onboard 400HZ opportunity charging capabilities.
