12V and 24V Fleet Standardisation
Cut the number of lighting part numbers a mixed fleet has to stock by specifying wide input lamps that run on every truck in the yard
What This Route Is For
A yard with pickups, trucks, loaders and forklifts usually runs several voltage systems at once, and each one tends to bring its own lamp part number. Most SUNLITEC lamps state a 9 to 32V or 10 to 30V input, and the forklift range extends to 48V and 80V models, so one specification can cover a large part of a mixed fleet.
Every Step and the Problem It Removes
- Audit the Fleet
Problem: Nobody knows how many lamp part numbers are actually in the store
How we handle it: List the machines, their voltage systems and the lamp types fitted to each - Group by Function
Problem: Lamps are bought per machine rather than per job
How we handle it: Group into work lighting, driving lighting and safety marking, then choose one model per group - Check the Input Range
Problem: A 12V only lamp fails as soon as it is fitted to a 24V truck
How we handle it: Specify models whose product page states 9 to 32V or 10 to 30V, and the wider ranges for electric warehouse trucks - Fix the Connector
Problem: Mixed connectors force the workshop to splice every replacement
How we handle it: Standardise on a bare wire lead or on a Deutsch DT connector where the product page offers it - Stock and Reorder
Problem: Replacements arrive that do not match the units already fitted
How we handle it: Reorder against the same part number so the fleet stays visually and electrically consistent

Will one lamp really cover 12V and 24V machines
Models that state a 9 to 32V or 10 to 30V input are designed for both. The current draw differs between the two systems and is listed on the product page.
What about electric forklifts at 48V or 80V
The forklift safety light range includes wider input models, with 9 to 48V and 9 to 80V options stated on individual product pages.
How do I size the fuse
Use the amp draw stated for the supply voltage on the product page and size the fuse and cable for that figure.
Can we get one connector type across the order
Where a product page offers a Deutsch DT connector as an option it can be specified across the order instead of the standard bare wire lead.
Does standardising cost more per lamp
A wide input lamp is one part number instead of several, which usually saves more in stock and downtime than it adds per unit.
