OTL
ITALIA Electric Karts

Our karts
are designed especially for rental as they are modern, durably
designed, reliable, handle easily and have lower maintenance costs
than petrol karts. An OTL kart does not simply contain an electric
engine (powered by batteries with an electric engine controller)
instead of an internal combustion engine, but rather is conceived
from its birth in 1996 as a means of electric propulsion and this
technology has been subjected to continual evolution prompted
by both research and by track experience. Our karts use the latest
brushless AC technology, engine 48-volt with a maximum power of
12 kW, with a controller from 60 A to 400 A fed by 4 batteries
of the latest generation (approved for electric competition karts).
We use gel seal batteries with maintenance free.
Our unique
frame is made of 32 mm steel tubes with adequate reinforcements,
FIA approved with welding certification. The disk brakes are self-ventilating
and the chain drive transmission is completely covered by the
body of the kart constructed in resin with a multi-axle mat for
security. The karts are calibrated to reach a speed up to 50mp/h.
We set up the ideal speed depending of the organization, and the
track length, grip and design. We also build karts for the disabled
(with controls on the steering wheel), safety cars and two-seaters.

The competition
kart uses six 12-volt batteries for a total of 72 volts and can
reach a maximum velocity of 90mp/h. The acceleration rate is 0
to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. The maximum autonomy of the vehicle
is 15 minutes at full power.
The kiddy
kart uses two 12-volt batteries for a total of 24 volts with a
maximum velocity of 20mp/h, and is autonomous is up to one hour,
depending on the maximum velocity employed. Recharge time takes
about 6 to 12 minutes based on the energy consumed.
All our karts
are programmed with 3 speeds, reverse, stop and slow. Safe and
easy to control, each kart is pre-equipped for the installation
of a full radio control. The high technology of our system allows
to change the speed (preprogrammed speed 1, 2 and 3), to slow
or stop each kart, or all of them.

All our karts
use a single battery charger capable of supplying via a smart
card set up to 24 Volts, 48 Volts or 72 Volts, the varying voltages
necessary. Our battery charger is using the latest advanced technology,
equipped with a ventilation system and digital screen monitor
that displays the consumption of electricity in KW, the current
supplied in amps, the time remaining for the recharge, the state
of the recharge and the voltage of the batteries. We use and recommend
Optima or Exide ORB 34 DC batteries which both are gel seal with
maintenance free.
The adult
model DSR has a maximum autonomy of 20 minutes, but usually it
is driven at full power for 8 to 9 minutes in order to reduce
the recharge time under 8 minutes. While 10 karts are on the track,
10 karts are being recharged. Therefore, for a fleet of 20 karts,
10 battery chargers are needed.
The battery
charger requires a three-phase current of 208, 380 or 480 Volts
and needs 7 KW of power, so for 10 battery chargers 70 KW are
needed.

The timing
system is part of the success of our concept. In USA, only a few
timing system companies meet our organization.
Working since
years with Oskar Timing System, created and developed by Microsoft
engineers, we found this system one of the most adapted to our
electric karting centers. Thanks to its flexibility, we can create
all the races we need, organize events, team building, etc.
Oskar is not
only a kart timing system, it is a complete management system
for your whole facility, including POS, scoreboard, email marketing,
scheduler and reports.
