Battery voltage is one part of a powered pallet truck’s electrical design; it does not by itself tell you run time, speed or capacity. Compare the complete battery pack, motor and charger system specified for the truck.
Manufacturers choose voltage to suit current draw, motor design and duty. A well-designed 24V walkie can be entirely appropriate for its capacity while a larger rider uses higher voltage for a different duty cycle.
Confirm input power for the charger, charging time and whether the battery can be opportunity-charged. A warehouse can buy the right truck and still create downtime with the wrong charging setup.
For “24V vs. 36V vs. 48V Warehouse Equipment: What Changes?,” these three models give you concrete products to compare against the requirements above, instead of leaving the answer at theory.
Our strongest starting point because 3,300-lb capacity and Full electric • 48V class give the buyer two concrete traits to verify against this requirement.
A useful second comparison because 3,300-lb capacity and Full electric give the buyer two concrete traits to verify against this requirement.
A contrasting third option because 5,000-lb class and Manual hand pallet truck give the buyer two concrete traits to verify against this requirement.
