The CSAF-30 3 ton electric forklift uses a 72V lead-acid battery system and is rated for 3000kg. Standard lifting height is 3000mm and chassis length is 2600mm excluding the forks.
The listed drive configuration includes a 7500W AC travel motor and a 5000W AC hydraulic lifting motor.
CSAF-30 or CSAH-30: Lead-Acid vs Lithium at 3 Tons
| Specification | CSAF-30 | CSAH-30 |
|---|---|---|
| Lifting Capacity | 3000kg | 3000kg |
| Voltage | 72V | 72V |
| Battery | 10 pieces of 70Ah maintenance-free lead-acid batteries | 300Ah Lithium Battery |
| Travel Motor | 7500W AC | 7500W AC |
The capacity and voltage are the same, so the battery system becomes one of the clearest selection points. The CSAF-30 uses lead-acid batteries, while the CSAH-30 uses a 300Ah lithium battery.
Lithium is generally easier to use with shorter charging opportunities and requires less routine battery maintenance. Lead-acid remains a familiar configuration for operations that already have suitable charging procedures. Battery choice should therefore follow the site’s charging schedule rather than the 3 ton capacity alone.
