Road Speed Control
ENHANCES SITE SAFETY BY LIMITING THE FORKLIFT TRUCKS TRAVEL SPEED
The new iTEch Speed v2 has been designed to limit the travel speed of a forklift truck with a cable-operated throttle, by detecting that the truck is travelling above a pre-set speed and then applying a throttle restriction to limit the truck speed. As long as the truck is travelling below the pre-set speed, lifting is not affected.
The unit can be programmed with two separate speeds, which can be switched by, for example, the directional selector (giving a slower speed in reverse than forward), a key switch where the Supervisor holds the key, or our iTEch Zone or Proximity Alert systems. Due to its ability to give a proportional restriction (where if the speed begins to drop, the limit is relaxed gradually), the climbing of gradients is not affected either.
Features
- Suitable for IC and diesel vehicles with torque converter transmission
- Suitable for conventional cable-operated throttles
- Low maintenence – designed to be ‘fit and forget’
- Does not affect lifting or ramp climbing capabilities
Benefits
- Increased site safety
- Vehicles cannot exceed set speed limit
- Reduced fuel consumption
- Reduced damage and wear to vehicles
