How to maintain electric lift truck batteries in winter?
The weather is getting colder, and it is about to enter the rhythm of winter. So what are the precautions for the use of electric lift truck? The energy of electric forklifts comes from the battery, and the capacity of the battery will be correspondingly reduced in winter, and sometimes there will be sudden power outages. This situation seriously affects the efficiency of storage enterprises, especially when the end of the year is approaching, and the volume of freight is soaring. The frequency of use of electric forklifts is relatively frequent. So how to overcome the weather factor to make the forklift can be used normally? The following electric forklift suppliers will introduce some precautions for using forklifts in winter:
1) The electrolyte is very important in the use of electric lift truck batteries. First, check the replenishment of distilled water. Adding distilled water in time is the key to the normal use of the battery. It is also closely related to the service life of the battery. The addition of distilled water is best when the battery is fully charged. Add it later to avoid electrolyte overflow when the battery is charging;
2) In winter, due to low temperature and slow ion reaction, the battery charging time of electric lift truck will be longer, while the discharge time will be shortened. This is a normal phenomenon, no need to worry;
3) The battery charging place of the electric lift truck should have proper insulation measures, on the one hand to ensure that the battery can be charged normally, on the other hand, to ensure that the battery fluid does not freeze;
4) The surface cleaning of the battery must be done well. Dust and electrolyte overflow and adhere to the surface of the battery will cause the battery to self-discharge and affect the use of the battery.
5) Regularly check the battery liquid level, clean the battery surface, and check that the battery's specific gravity has reached a good use condition.
The above are the things that electric forklift suppliers need to pay attention to when using batteries in winter. In addition, if the battery is not used for a long time, the battery should be placed in a place with a higher temperature to avoid freezing of the battery due to low temperature. If the ambient temperature is lower than minus 10 degrees, the discharged battery will freeze. The frozen battery must be thawed before charging, otherwise charging the electric lift truck directly may cause an explosion, and it is best to use a small current to charge slowly .

New energy forklift power system controllerIn the electric forklift power unit, when the forward contactor is closed, the motor is in a forward rotation state; Whereas, when the reverse contactor is closed, the motor is reversed. By changing the direction of the armature current or excitation current, or by changing the polarity of the excitation winding, the commutation control of the motor is realized. However, the use of two sets of excitation windings with opposite windings will lead to a complex structure and an increase in the volume of the motor, so the first two methods are more commonly used in practicalDo you like ?0

Electric forklifts vs. internal combustion forkliftsHowever, there are also some drawbacks to internal combustion forklifts. First of all, diesel engines are more expensive to run, especially against the backdrop of the current surge in oil prices. Secondly, the internal combustion forklift is noisy and vibrate, and the operating noise of the diesel engine has an irreversible impact on the human body. In addition, the exhaust gas pollution is serious, even if the processor is installed, it will cause environmental pollution, and it is necessary to clean up the dust regularly, which is more cumbersome to maintain, and can easily lead to oil pollution problems on the site.Do you like ?0
