Cold storage electric Forklift
CPD20TV8 Forklift Model
The CPD20TV8 is the 2.0 tonne version of EP’s TV8 cold-storage series. EP positions the CPD15/18/20TV8 range around cold-rated hydraulic oil, sealed wiring, corrosion-resistant components and reliable operation down to -30°C. The CPD20TV8 also uses solid tyres, a seated counterbalance layout and a 1605 mm turning radius, making it a realistic fit for heavier cold-chain work.
For Perth operators, the CPD20TV8 is the one to consider when cold storage handling is getting heavier but the forklift still needs to stay controlled and reliable on cold, potentially slippery floors. It suits refrigerated distribution centres, frozen food storage and heavier-duty cold room work where a standard electric would not be the right long-term choice. Compass Forklifts can supply the CPD20TV8 for purchase, hire or lease, with finance options available if buying outright is not the right fit.
