JCB is leading the way in clean technology and reducing harmful emissions. The JCB 19C-1E electric mini excavator is the first of the electric generation and the industry’s first fully electric mini excavator.
The JCB 19C-1E gives the freedom to work anywhere, anytime, with quick charging and long battery life.
• The machine’s four-battery pack allows a full day’s work on a single charge
• If the machine is left on but not working, the battery will last up to 120 hours
• Battery status can be checked via a gauge on the instrument panel, and
• There are three charging options: 110V, 230V and 415V.
Economical
The JCB 19C-1E electric has maintenance-free batteries, needs minimal daily checks and requires less servicing, saving rental companies, hirers and owner operators time and money.
Electricity is far less expensive than fossil fuel, and the 19C-1E having no internal-combustion engine and associated hardware significantly reduces servicing time. There’s no need for emissions extraction, and with no engine fluid or filter checks, a considerable amount of time is saved in each working day.
Safety plus
And it’s not only the significantly reduced maintenance which causes the JCB to shine so brightly on the work site. The sound level at the operator station is a huge 10dB less than the diesel version, and safety features like a blue light indicator to show the machine is running, and three single-flanged bottom rollers, allied with short pitch tracks, ensure a quiet, smooth ride.
It all adds up to increased operator comfort and safety, and the option to work ‘out-of-hours’ or in confined spaces – something the diesel machines with their higher sound levels and high exhaust emissions can’t do.
The JCB 19C-1E electric operates completely free of any trailing tethers, has zero emissions, the canopy is ROPS, TOPS and FOGS certified, and JCB’s unique 2GO system safely isolates all controls.
Built to work
JCB’s 19C-1E has been designed and built with long-lasting components for minimum downtime. The bodywork is 100% steel for maximum protection and easy repair, and electrical circuitry has been extensively tested, including the heavy-duty cables, to maximise longevity. A full-width rear cast counterweight gives full protection against site damage, and extending undercarriage beams are constructed from 25mm solid-steel plate.
A great option
With a three-year/3000-hour warranty on batteries and machine, and continually tougher sound restrictions, JCB’s 19C-1E makes for an excellent investment.
