Chargers...

When evaluating an electric forklift fleet, battery chargers are the most critical yet most overlooked aspect affecting fleet productivity.  An electric forklift cannot operate without a charged industrial battery; a battery cannot provide the necessary power to the lift truck unless it is properly charged.  Identifying the proper battery charger is the most important variable in maximizing lift truck performance and battery life.

Locate your application type below to see the recommended chargers.  An operational fleet assessment is recommended to determine the right charger for your application and budget.

Energy Savings

Second to HVAC, chargers are responsible for the highest portion of your energy bill.  All chargers listed with an “HF” are the latest in charging technologies.  These chargers offer the highest Power Factor and Efficiency ratings that help reduce your energy costs.  They incorporate the most advanced microprocessor controls that allow for pin point charging accuracy.  The net result is a decrease in overall cost of ownership through extended battery life and energy savings.

Cold / Freezer Storage

Cold/Freezer Storage applications cause an immediate drop in battery capacity due to the batteries operating temperature which can lead to premature battery failure.  Choosing the right charger is critical to productivity and battery life.  The following chargers offer various cold/freezer application solutions.  We can help choose the best solution for your application.

High Ambient Temperature (90 degrees +)

Heat is a batteries worst enemy!  Overheating the battery accelerates active material shedding and causes loss of capacity and premature battery failure.  High ambient temperature applications require chargers that regulate the charge output by compensating for increased battery temperature.  This is best achieved through external battery monitoring devices that communicate battery temperature to the chargers microprocessor regulating its output.  The following chargers offer the perfect solution.
