To quote accurately for a multi service tunnel vehicle, our sales team will need details of your tunnel, your team and the work involved:
Get in touch with these details and our sales team will recommend the right vehicle.
Yes, speak to our team about arranging a demonstration on a multi service tunnel vehicle before you order. You can either visit our offices in Oldham, Manchester, or we can arrange an on-site delivery and producy demonstration of your chosen multi service vehicle.
Seeing a vehicle against your own tunnel layout and working practices is the most reliable way to confirm it’s the right fit. It also gives your operators the chance to try the controls and driving positions.
For tunnels and sites with hazardous area requirements, we can can advise and supply on ATEX-rated equipment. Suitability depends on your site’s zone classification, so share it with the team when you enquire.
Battery life on a tunnel vehicle varies by model and specification. Most multi service tunnel vehicles are configured to suit the job, so there’s no single figure that applies across the range. Operating time depends on:
Rather than working to a standard figure, we can specify your vehicles battery and charging set-up around your shift patterns. Our team can look at how long the vehicle needs to work between charges, where it will be stored and what power supply is available. The result is a vehicle that’s ready for your full working day.
Our electric tunnel vehicles can be used in rail tunnels where there’s a suitable walkway or hard floor, as these are trackless vehicles rather than rail-mounted. The width and surface of the walkwat, clearances to the track and infrastructure and how the vehicle will be b rought in and out of the tunnel all need to be considered when choosing the right model.
Whether a multi service vehicle fits your tunnel depends mainly on the tunnel’s width and height clearances and any pinch points along the route. The Jack Dual Drive for example is 980mm wide, which suits narrow walkways and tighter tunnels. Meanwhile, other models might suit tunnels with more space and heavier loads.
To check fit, measure your tunnel’s width and height and note any doorways, cross passages or access shafts the vehicle needs to pass through. Then send these details to the ePowerTrucks team for a recommendation of the right electric multi service tunnel vehicle.
Electric tunnel vehicles produce no exhaust emissions inside the tunnel and run much more quietly than diesel vehicles, which makes them better suited to enclosed spaces. With no fumes, there’s less for the tunnel’s ventilation system to manage and a cleaner environment for the team.
Quieter running also makes it easier for crew members to communicate while travelling and working. Electric vehicles also support projects and operators working towards diesel-free targets.
Maintenance multi service vehicles are smaller, lighter vehicles designed for tunnels already in use, while construction MSVs are heavy carriers that supply tunnel boring machines during the build. Construction MSVs typically carry tunnel lining segments to the boring machine.
Maintenance MSVs, like the Alke ATX4, Jack Dual Drive and MC 480 1120 AC, carry crews, tools and materials for the inspection and servicing work that keeps a finished tunnel running.
The Jobmaster HD can be used to move a wide range of wheeled loads, including:
This versatility makes it well suited to manufacturing, warehousing, aviation and large-site facilities operations.
After a full day of work, the Jobmaster HD will take around 4 hours to fully recharge using its 240V charger.
Range varies depending on a number of factors including load weight, frequency of stops, gradients and surface conditions. In typical use, the Jobmaster HD is designed to support full-shift operation without the need for mid-shift charging.
There is an approximate 4 hours recharge time with the 240V charger.
The Jobmaster HD is built to tow heavy wheeled loads such as trailers, trolleys, cages and dollies. It is commonly used to move multiple loads at once in industrial, logistics and facilities environments where manual handling or forklifts are impractical.
Yes, the Jobmaster HD is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, with electric drive providing zero emissions indoors and reliable traction on external hardstanding.
Benefits of using waste management electric vehicles include reducing emissions, improving fuel efficiency, reducing dependence on fossil fuels, reducing noise pollution, and helping to create a cleaner urban environment.
The maximum weight capacity of a bin tug can vary depending on the model. Generally, bin tugs are designed to hold up to 500kgs.
Yes, a bin tug can be used for multiple wheelie bins if desired.
A bin tug can be used to move a heavy wheelie bin. The bin tug attaches to the wheelie bin, making it easy to move it around.
No, a bin tug does not come with wheelie bins. The wheelie bins must be purchased separately.
A bin tug is a wheeled cart that is used to transport wheelie bins around. It is designed to make it easier to move heavy wheelie bins safely.
