Jekko launches Electric JF235

Jekko has introduced the lithium-ion battery version of its 6.15 tonne JF235 articulated spider crane that it launched in January.

The model has the same features and lifting performance of the diesel JF235 with a five section boom - a base and four telescopic sections - for a maximum tip height of just over 15 metres, at which point it can handle 5.4 tonnes. The maximum radius with the boom horizontal is 12.7 metres with a capacity of 1,280kg. A five section hydraulic luffing jib can be installed to take the maximum tip height to 25 metres with a capacity of 485kg, or a maximum radius of 22.7 metres with the boom and jib horizontal, at which point it has a capacity of 235kg.

Being emission free, the new electric model is aimed at indoor operation, it features a 48V 67kWh lithium-ion battery pack with a BMS (Battery Monitoring System) integrated into the machine's electronics. The battery provides enough power for the 12kW motor pump to operate for 10 working hours (on 35 percent duty cycle).

The crane can be recharged with both single phase (230V) or three phase (400V) chargers. It can be completely recharged in 6.5 hours and can continue to operate at full power while recharging.
