Hyster® Battery Electric Empty Container Handler Helps Decarbonize Fleets

 


Hyster recently unveiled a new heavy-duty empty container handler powered by integrated lithium-ion batteries. The Hyster® J6-7XD-EC3/4 models are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of ports, terminals, container yards, and intermodal operations while supporting the decarbonisation of container handling fleets.

This latest addition to the Hyster electric truck range delivers consistent performance comparable to an internal combustion engine (ICE) machine but with zero tailpipe emissions. Featuring an electric drivetrain, the empty container hander supports intensive duty cycles, a lifting capacity of 6,000 to 7,000 kg, and the ability to stack containers 3 or 4 high.

The truck’s 350 V system architecture is optimised for both energy efficiency and uptime, providing a practical and cost-effective alternative to higher-voltage systems. The right-sized batteries can also be configured to meet specificapplication demands. Fast and opportunity charging is possible using the standardised CCS (Combined Charging System) for plug-in equipment, enabling easy integration with existing electric fleets and infrastructure.
The new electric container handler not only eliminates the emissions typically associated with diesel-powered equipment, but also the noise.

The operator environment is complemented by a spacious, ergonomically designed cab that offers excellent visibility through curved front and rear windows with tempered glass and an armoured overhead window, helping optimise productivity.

Built for durability in harsh container handling environments, the Hyster J6-7XD-EC3/4 electric empty container handlers feature a rugged chassis, and simplified service access. With the correct training, technicians can access all high voltage components behind removable panels.

What’s more, the lithium-ion battery is maintenance-free. Altogether, this helps minimise operational downtime and contributes to a lower total cost of ownership.
