Fork Lift Oil Tanks
Industry stats have revealed that LPG is increasing in popularity in the forklift market place. For the second consecutive month, LPG has outsold diesel and in June 20101, sales of LPG fuelled counterbalance forklift trucks took a massive 188 per cent increase over the previous month's sales2. BITA figures also show that monthly LPG sales have increased year on year every month since May3.
The British Industrial Truck Association (BITA) retail delivery statistics are announced monthly, providing an overview of the UK forklift truck market and the number of products sold, breaking down market share by fuel type. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) powered forklift trucks now account for 30.2 per cent of all counterbalance forklift trucks sold in 20101.
Calor's forklift truck specialist, Jim Moyes, says the figures come as no surprise as more and more operators realise the benefits of LPG. He explains: "The benefits of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the forklift market have been widely recognised over recent years with all of the major equipment manufacturers now offering LPG models in their product ranges.

"LPG avoids the lengthy charging periods associated with electric trucks and, as a cleaner burning fuel than diesel, LPG results in less potential for oil contamination and reduced overall engine wear4. What's more, lower carbon emissions from engines means that they can be used inside in sensitive environments as well as outside on more difficult terrains5.

Midsize utility machines in the 450 class are already light and easy to handle, but that doesnt mean they cant be even more agile and rider friendly. Yamaha ATV riders have a strong desire for power steering options within all utility segments, so the Tuning Fork crew decided to equip the Grizzly 450 with EPS for 2011. Yamaha chose Washingtons claustrophobic trails of the Capitol State Forest to demonstrate why the new 450 EPS is worth every penny.
Yamaha's newest Grizzly ATV is a seriously capable machine that impressed us. Want to see why? Watch the 2011 Yamaha Grizzly 450 EPS ATV Video .
In order to build the best product for customers, a company like Yamaha first has to know what those customers want. In the case of 351-450cc utility ATVS, the three largest demographics are by far trail riding, hunting and farming. On top of that, affordability and value are paramount. These ATV users are widely active and financially shrewd. Its not a market segment governed by chest-thumping power claims, marketing bravado and unlimited budgets. What these machines need to survive in this hard-nosed reality are bulletproof design, capable performance and usable features. One of the hottest new additions to utility quads is electronic power steering. The non-EPS version is still available, but the new model costs only $600 more.
The new lighter chassis and EPS make getting through tough situations more manageable. This trials course we discovered was difficult enough that it drew specators.

New from Atlas Copco is the QAS 500 generating set which offers dual frequency operation rated at 500kVA at 50Hz (571kVA at 60Hz). It also has noise reduction and environmental protection features for continuous on-site power in industrial, public utilities and construction applications.
The QAS range, comprising a wide variety of models rated between 14?571kVA has been designed for fast, easy and safe transportation and on-site handling on virtually any unprepared surface.
Housed in a noise attenuated enclosure made from zinc plated steel and painted with powder coating paint, the QAS 500 meets a sound power level (LWA) of 99 dB(A) at 50Hz; making it suitable for applications in noise sensitive areas. The enclosure also provides optimum resistance against corrosion ensuring that it remains in good condition and retains an improved resale value, says the company.
An integrated lifting structure on the enclosure has been designed contributes to the total sturdiness of the set to ensure safe and efficient handling. It is positioned in the centre point of gravity for correct balancing and is dimensioned to support at least four times the maximum weight without breaking.
