What are the benefits of choosing lithium batteries for forklifts.
With the development of electronic technology, the situation in the battery industry is becoming increasingly severe. After nearly a decade of development, lithium batteries for forklifts have entered a period of rapid growth. The advantages of fast charging, clean operation, and water free maintenance of
forklift lithium batteries have become important factors for users to choose from. What are the benefits of choosing lithium batteries for electric forklifts?
Longer service life: Forklift lithium batteries have a longer service life. With the further development of lithium-ion battery technology, the lifespan of the battery can reach about 3000 capacity cycles, which has great advantages compared to traditional lead-acid batteries that require more than 1000 charging cycles. In most applications, the same lifespan of a lithium-ion battery is equivalent to three or four lead-acid batteries. In addition, the service life of traditional lead-acid batteries will be affected by later maintenance, and leakage, improper cleaning and charging, or balancing can greatly reduce the service life of lead-acid batteries.
Fast charging is more convenient: Lithium batteries can be charged and discharged quickly, allowing workers to charge quickly while resting and eating, prolonging useful working time and improving utilization. That is to say, it can work for several more hours, even twice as much as lead-acid batteries;
Good reliability:
Lithium ion batteries for forklifts require less maintenance and are a more reliable choice. The battery is fully sealed and in a very stable normal state. So there are no problems of corrosion, vulcanization, acid overflow, or pollution, which is also beneficial to the environment. The BMS system can communicate with forklifts and send information about battery status, such as discharge levels, which can be seen on standard forklift displays. If there are any issues, an error code will be displayed, and in bad situations, the battery will automatically shut down the forklift. To provide good security and reliability.
Higher efficiency and lower cost: Lithium ion forklifts can charge quickly, and the 1-3 hour fast charging mode is suitable for multi shift operations. Instant charging eliminates the time and risk of battery replacement, resulting in stronger power. Another advantage of lithium-ion batteries is that they provide a constant high power supply that does not decrease with battery discharge, and their power output can replace internal combustion forklifts. Lead acid batteries typically require continuous charging for 7-10 hours, resulting in lower efficiency than lithium batteries. In addition, the long-term accumulation of maintenance time, labor, and replacement costs. Choosing lithium-ion batteries for electric forklifts is indeed a very good investment.
