The EC600SJ by JLG is an innovative electric and hybrid telescopic boom lift designed for applications where high reach, capacity, and environmental considerations are critical. This model excels in construction, maintenance, or industrial settings where access to significant heights is needed without compromising on environmental impact or noise levels.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Provides a platform height of 60 feet 3 inches (18.36 meters), offering a working height of 66 feet 3 inches (20.19 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 51 feet (15.54 meters), allowing for extensive outreach over obstacles or to distant work areas.
- Up and Over: While primarily telescopic, its design includes some capability for up-and-over tasks.
Power and Efficiency:
- Electric Option: Powered by a 96V DC electric system, ensuring silent, zero-emission operation for indoor or environmentally sensitive areas.
- Hybrid Option: Features a hybrid power system that can switch to a diesel engine for extended operation or recharging the batteries, offering flexibility in power usage for various job site conditions.
Capacity and Platform:
- The platform capacity is 500 pounds (227 kg) in unrestricted mode, with options for higher capacities in restricted modes:
- Restricted: Up to 750 lbs (340 kg)
- Further Restricted: Up to 1,000 lbs (454 kg)The platform dimensions are approximately 8 feet by 3 feet, providing ample workspace.
Terrainability:
- Equipped with 4-wheel drive and an oscillating axle for superior performance on rough terrains, with a gradeability of up to 45%. This ensures stability and mobility in challenging outdoor environments.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: Enhances durability and reduces maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- Automatic Load Sensing System: Adjusts performance based on load for safety.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For comprehensive reach around the base without repositioning.
- Hybrid Technology: Combines the benefits of electric power for indoor use with diesel for outdoor or prolonged tasks, reducing overall emissions and fuel consumption.
Operational Benefits:
- The EC600SJ is designed for productivity with its extensive reach and height, offering the environmental benefits of electric operation for indoor tasks or when emissions are a concern, while the hybrid system extends its utility for outdoor or longer-duration operations. Its high-capacity options make it suitable for tasks involving multiple workers or heavy equipment at height.
Dimensions and Transport:
- When stowed, it measures approximately 28 feet 7 inches (8.71 meters) in length, 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) in width, and 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) in height, requiring planning for transportation but justified by its capabilities in reach and load handling.
