How This Calculator Works
This tool estimates fuel or energy consumption, cost, and CO₂ emissions for various telehandler models based on operating hours and fuel type.
Fuel Calculation Formula:
Fuel/Energy Used = Operating Hours × Consumption Rate (liters or kWh per hour)
CO₂ Emissions = Fuel/Energy Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors:
- Diesel: 2.68 kg CO₂/liter
- Electric: 0 kg CO₂/kWh (assuming renewable source)
About Telehandlers
Telehandlers are versatile lifting machines that combine the functions of a forklift and a crane. They are widely used in construction, agriculture, and material handling operations.
- Compact Telehandler: Ideal for tight spaces and light loads.
- Standard Telehandler: Suitable for general construction and handling work.
- Heavy-Duty Telehandler: Designed for lifting heavy loads in demanding environments.
- Electric Telehandler: Zero on-site emissions and quieter operation.
Fuel-Saving Tips:
- Reduce idle time between tasks.
- Follow regular maintenance schedules.
- Use the correct attachments for efficiency.
- Consider electric models for indoor or emission-sensitive projects.
