Summer is coming, and after a typhoon or heavy rain, water accumulation will often occur. More and more people are concerned about the safety of electric forklifts in water: "If an electric forklift runs in water, will it leak electricity?", "What will happen if the electric forklift is exposed to rain for a long time?" Faced with this question, SANY electric forklift's answer is: as long as the protection of the three electrics reaches the required level, it can pass with confidence. The protection standard adopted by SANY electric forklifts is IP67."

SANY 's C6 series of high-voltage lithium-ion counterbalanced forklifts cover different tonnage scenarios from 2 to 5 tons, and all series are equipped with IP67 level protection as standard. In the field of electric forklifts, few brands can achieve IP67 level protection for their entire series of products.

So what kind of protection standard is IP67? Will it perform better than fuel vehicles when wading in water?

Interpretation of IP67 protection level

IP is the abbreviation of Ingress Protection, which defines the protection ability of an interface against liquid and solid particles.

IP is followed by two digits. The first is the solid protection level, ranging from 0-6, which respectively indicates protection from large particles to dust. The second is the liquid protection level, which is commonly used in the range of 0-8, with the highest being 9, which indicates protection from vertical water drops to underwater pressure. The larger the two numbers, the higher the protection level.

The explanation of IP67 is: the first item "6" means complete sealing to prevent foreign objects and dust; the second item "7" means that at normal temperature and pressure, when the shell is temporarily (half an hour) immersed in 1 meter deep water, it will not cause harmful effects.

Therefore, SANY electric forklifts that adopt the IP67 standard can not only be immersed in water for a short time, but driving on rainy days is not a problem for the forklift battery. If you encounter wading, it is also very safe to ensure that the wading time is not too long.

IP67 is a ceiling-level protection standard, but most electric forklifts with the same level of protection on the market only have IP67 protection for the battery or three-electric system. Not only does the SANY electric forklift reach this level in the three-electric system, but it also achieves IP67 in components such as high-voltage wiring harnesses, and the entire vehicle has achieved IPX4 protection. Because of this, the SANY electric forklift, which is equipped with an extreme liquid cooling system, can achieve a wading depth of 300mm and uninterrupted operation in heavy rain of any intensity. It is applicable to all conditions such as outdoor rain and snow weather, low temperature working conditions in cold storage, and high temperature and heavy working conditions (-30°- 50℃), and is particularly suitable for heavy dust scenes such as stone factories.
