What Is The Function Of H30-40a Forklift Model?

The H30-40A forklift is a Class IV internal combustion (IC) engine-powered model designed for heavy indoor/outdoor material handling. With 3,000–4,000 kg load capacities, it excels in lumberyards, shipping docks, and manufacturing. Key features include 5–7 m lift heights, compact rear profiles for tight spaces, and dual hydraulic pumps for simultaneous lifting/tilting. Safety systems include automatic engine shutdown during oil pressure drops.

What defines the H30-40A forklift model?

The H30-40A is a diesel/LPG-powered counterbalance forklift with 3-4 ton capacity and IC engine durability. Its dual-stage mast allows precision stacking up to 6.5m, while 160mm ground clearance handles uneven surfaces. Pro Tip: Use LPG for indoor operations—it emits 90% fewer particulates than diesel.

Engineered for high torque, the H30-40A runs on Kubota V2203 (47 kW) or equivalent engines, generating 245 N·m at 1,800 rpm. The hydraulic system operates at 16 MPa, enabling 540 kg/s lifting speeds. Unlike electric models, IC variants like this don’t suffer voltage sag during cold starts. But how do they handle fuel efficiency? Advanced fuel injection cuts consumption to 3.8 L/hour under 60% load. For example, a distribution center using H30-40As reduced refueling stops by 30% compared to older H25-35A units. Always check hydraulic fluid viscosity—ISO 46 works best between -10°C to 40°C.

What are the H30-40A’s key performance metrics?

Critical metrics include load center stability, travel speeds, and lifting energy efficiency. At 500mm load centers, it maintains full 4T capacity, dropping to 2.8T at 1,200mm. Dual drive modes offer 18 km/h (unladen) or 12 km/h (loaded).

The H30-40A’s performance hinges on its powertrain and chassis design. The 115 Ah alternator supports continuous operation of lights and data loggers without draining the battery. Service brakes provide 4.2 m/s² deceleration—critical when moving 3T pallets down 10% gradients. Pro Tip: Replace brake linings every 1,200 operating hours in dusty environments. Transitioning to operational costs, diesel models average $14/hour in fuel vs. $9 for LPG. However, LPG tanks require 3-minute swaps every 6 hours. Ever seen a forklift tip-over? The H30-40A’s 1,800 kg counterweight prevents this up to 4° lateral inclines.

How does its lifting mechanism handle heavy loads?

The dual-stage simplex mast uses synchronized roller chains and ISI-certified steel carriage. Each 2.5m lift stage completes in 25 seconds under full load, with ±3° tilt adjustment.

Hydraulic pressure is distributed through load-sensing valves that prioritize lift-over travel functions. The 80mm diameter lift cylinders prevent buckling under asymmetric loads—imagine lifting a lopsided machinery crate. For heavy-duty tasks, the optional reinforced fork carriage adds 15% capacity but reduces maximum lift height by 1.2m. Why worry about hydraulic leaks? A single failed seal can drop system pressure by 40% in seconds. Redway’s onsite teams recommend ultrasonic testing of hoses every 500 hours.

What industries use the H30-40A most effectively?

Primary users include steel fabrication, port logistics, and construction material suppliers. Its all-terrain tires and IP54-rated electricals handle rain, dust, and temperature swings.

In steel yards, the H30-40A’s 4,000 kg capacity moves coiled sheets that would buckle smaller forklifts. Ports benefit from its 55 cm wheelbase, allowing tight turns between shipping containers. Did you know some models integrate RFID cargo scanners? These auto-log inventory during transport. One automotive plant reduced part transfers by 40% after deploying H30-40As with side-shifting forks. For lumber applications, clamp attachments increase grip force to 12 kN—enough to secure 3T timber bundles without slippage.

How does H30-40A compare to H20-30A models?

The H30-40A offers 33% higher capacity and 20% faster cycle times but requires 15% more maintenance. While H20-30A suits lighter 8-hour shifts, H30-40A handles 24/7 operations with planned downtime.

Structurally, the H30-40A’s 12-liter larger fuel tank extends runtime by 4 hours versus H20 series. Its durable transmission absorbs 400,000+ load cycles before overhaul—twice the H20’s lifespan in high-use scenarios. But what about costs? The H30-40A’s $42,000 price tag is 25% higher, but ROI improves in heavy industries needing fewer equipment swaps. For example, a paper mill saved $18,000/year using two H30-40As instead of four H20-30As.
