Rent the Zoomlion ZT18JE-Li – electric telescopic boom lift with 20.6 m working height

The Zoomlion ZT18JE-Li is a fully electric telescopic boom lift with 20.60 m working height, 13.30 m horizontal outreach and 300 kg lifting capacity. It works locally emission-free and much more quietly than a comparable diesel lift – making it suitable for jobs where exhaust fumes or noise rule out other machines. Rent the ZT18JE-Li from Luibl anywhere in Europe, with transport and operator familiarisation on request.

20.60 m working height and 13.30 m horizontal outreach

With 20.60 m working height, the ZT18JE-Li reaches the eaves of a five-storey building, roof trusses in standard halls and lighting or ventilation systems under typical industrial ceilings. In practice, horizontal outreach is often more important than height alone: 13.30 m means you can reach the work point without positioning the machine directly underneath. This lets you reach façades, roof edges or plant components over green areas, railway tracks, racking or stored components.

The two-section telescopic boom is also fitted with a jib that articulates through 135° (−60° to +75°). This lets you guide the platform down over an obstacle or up to a ceiling structure from below – work points that a straight telescopic lift without a jib cannot reach. The platform measures 1.83 × 0.76 m, carries 300 kg and rotates ±90° to the left and right. The turntable rotates 360° continuously.

Emission-free lithium-ion drive for sensitive applications

The ZT18JE-Li is powered by a 51.2 V, 315 Ah lithium-ion battery. In operation there are no exhaust emissions on site, and the noise level is noticeably lower than that of a diesel engine. This opens up applications that are difficult to organise or even impossible to get approved with a conventional lift:

• Installation and maintenance work in production halls during ongoing operations
• Logistics centres and warehouses with staff present at all times
• City centres with low-emission zones or emission restrictions
• Night and weekend work near residential areas
• Food and pharmaceutical production with air quality requirements
• Underground car parks, multi-storey car parks and other enclosed areas

A practical side effect: no fuel logistics on site. No diesel cans, no refuelling, no discussion about storing hazardous substances.

Rough-terrain capable, compact and easy to transport

For the ZT18JE-Li, electric drive does not mean indoor-only. It stands on a rough-terrain chassis with four-wheel drive and a permanently active oscillating axle and handles gradients of up to 45 % (24°). Foam-filled tyres rule out punctures on site, and ground clearance is 0.33 m. The drive speed is up to 5.2 km/h.

The compact design pays off when manoeuvring: the turning radius is 2.69 m inside and 5.45 m outside, and the tail swing is 1.70 m. In tight yards or between rows of racking, this lets you reach positions for which larger machines would have to be repositioned several times.

With a weight of 8,600 kg and transport dimensions of 9.74 m × 2.28 m × 2.57 m (L × W × H), the ZT18JE-Li can be transported with standard equipment. The transport height of 2.57 m stays below common clearance restrictions. We deliver throughout Europe and organise transport in full on request – see Transport for details.

Safe operation and regulatory requirements

The machine is operated with proportional joysticks that allow sensitive positioning of the platform. Standard equipment includes a tilt warning system, a load sensing system, auto-levelling, emergency lowering, emergency stop, all-motion alarm, self-closing entry gate, flashing beacon and an on-board diagnostic system. The machine is CE compliant.

The operation of mobile elevating work platforms is subject to national occupational safety regulations; operators need instruction and written authorisation from their employer. We provide the appropriate qualifications through our training courses.

Typical applications in the 20-metre class

Typical applications in the 20-metre class include industrial installations and plant engineering, hall and steel construction, electrical and ventilation installations under the ceiling, façade and painting work, tree and landscape maintenance, and maintenance of lighting, sprinkler systems and fire alarm systems. Wherever work is carried out indoors or the surroundings are noise-sensitive, the ZT18JE-Li plays to its advantage over diesel machines.
