Who uses the EHS 1000 - 3.0 and for what
The Bernardo EHS 1000 - 3.0 is an electric stacker (pallet truck with tiller steering) sized for handling and storing pallets on multiple shelves. Distinctive features: capacity 1,000 kg, maximum lifting height 3,000 mm. The number in the name (e.g., EHS 1 - 3.0) summarizes the 2 key characteristics: capacity and max height. Max height 3,000 mm: sized for standard 3-level shelving above ground, medium-depth warehouses. The 1.5 kW lifting motor powered by a 12V battery delivers a lifting speed with load of 90 mm/s (approximately 33 seconds to reach maximum height at full load). The 1,280 mm turning radius allows maneuverability in standard warehouse aisles (recommended minimum aisle 2.2-2.5 m). In Krollit's customer laboratories, the EHS 1000 - 3.0 is chosen by logistics warehouses, palletized material depots, facilities with multi-level shelving, and distribution centers.
Its place in the Bernardo range
The Bernardo EHS electric stacker range is organized into 7 models classified by capacity and lifting height: EHS 1000 (capacity 1,000 kg) available in 3 heights (1.6 / 2.5 / 3.0 m), EHS 1500 (capacity 1,500 kg) available in 4 heights (1.6 / 2.5 / 3.0 / 3.5 m). All models share the 1.5 kW motor, 12V battery, 1,140 mm fork length, 1,160 mm wheelbase, and 1,280 mm turning radius.
The EHS 1000 - 3.0 model has a capacity of 1,000 kg and a max height of 3,000 mm. Machine weight with battery 495 kg: this affects the required floor capacity in the warehouse. EHS 1000 family: sufficient capacity for standard medium pallets. For heavy pallets (over 1,000 kg), move up to the EHS 1500 family. Height 3.0 m: intermediate choice for warehouses with 3-level shelving. Balance between useful height and retracted mast footprint.
Difference with the Bernardo RHW series: EHS are electric stackers for multi-level pallet storage (lifting 1,600-3,500 mm); RHW are manual pallet trucks for cylindrical coils (lifting 115 mm). They are products for completely different applications.
Krollit logistics and support
Bernardo shipping in 5-9 working days (7 days to the South). The EHS 1000 - 3.0 stacker with a machine weight of 495 kg requires a pallet truck or crane for unloading. Dimensions 1,720 × 780 mm: check warehouse access and ceiling height in relation to the extended mast in advance. The machine is supplied with a 12V battery and charger. Original Bernardo spare parts (batteries, motors, wheels, masts) available from stock with 3-5 working day shipping. Italian customer assistance available.

| Hobbyist / small workshop |
Not suitable |
Industrial electric stacker: exclusively professional application for warehouses with multiple shelving. |
| Logistics warehouse with 3.0 m shelving |
Recommended |
Capacity 1,000 kg and height 3,000 mm sized for standard multi-level storage. 1.5 kW electric motor and 12V battery for 6-8 hours of continuous operation. |
| Production facility with multi-level storage |
Recommended |
Lifting speed 90 mm/s with load, turning radius 1,280 mm: optimizes loading/unloading cycles in series production. |
Not suitable for: handling industrial cylindrical coils (RHW pallet trucks are correctly sized for that application); storage at heights above 3,000 mm (move up to a model with greater height or consider industrial forklifts with mast shelving); transporting loads exceeding 1,000 kg (the EHS 1500 family or industrial stackers are correctly sized); warehouses with narrow aisles (1,280 mm turning radius requires a minimum aisle of 2.2-2.5 m).

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the battery last in daily use?
In standard daily use, the 12V battery is sized for 6-8 hours of lifting and handling operations. A full charge requires 8-10 hours with the supplied charger.
Actual autonomy depends on work intensity: in continuous intensive use (high-cadence lifts), it reduces to 4-5 hours; in intermittent use (occasional lifts), it can extend to 10-12 hours. For double-shift use, a spare battery or intermediate charging is recommended. Batteries are consumables with a typical lifespan of 3-5 years in standard daily use.
Is the 3,000 mm height actually usable?
Yes, it is the maximum height of the forks from the floor. For shelving storage, the minimum fork height (typically 85 mm) must be subtracted to obtain the usable space under the pallet.
The practical calculation: for shelving with a level 3,000 mm from the ground, a stacker with a max height of 3,000 mm is sufficient with margin. For correct sizing relative to your shelving, also consider the thickness of the fork tip (60 mm) that is interposed between the fork and the top surface of the pallet.
What pallet size is compatible with the forks?
Forks with a width of 180 mm and a clear width between forks of 210 mm are compatible with standard EUR pallets (1,200 × 800 mm) and typical industrial pallets (1,000 × 1,200 mm, 1,200 × 1,000 mm).
For non-standard pallet sizes (custom industrial, narrow pallets), check the fork spacing and the potential need for adapters. EHS forks are width-adjustable via the manual positioning system. For specific compatible pallets, contact Krollit for compatibility verification.
Can I use the stacker in tight spaces?
The 1,280 mm turning radius and 1,160 mm wheelbase define the minimum operational aisle: recommended aisle 2.2-2.5 m for smooth maneuvers, absolute minimum aisle 2.0 m with slowed maneuvers.
For warehouses with aisles less than 2 m, dedicated mast stackers with reduced turning radius (special categories) are required. Machine dimensions and turning radius are decisive parameters in warehouse layout design: check the sizing of existing aisles before purchase.
Is the lifting speed sufficient for series production?
Lifting speed with load 90 mm/s = 33 seconds to reach maximum height at full load. For standard series production, it is correctly sized.
The complete loading/lifting/positioning/lowering cycle typically requires 60-90 seconds per standard pallet. For series production with high frequencies (above 30-40 movements/hour), consider electronically controlled industrial trucks with higher speeds. The EHS stacker is sized for standard intensive warehouse logistics use.
