Basically the forklift battery is like a civil battery, but due to its large capacity, advanced manufacturing technology such as the pole plate has a frame made of rolled fiberglass, so on it is a metal layer by a specialized machine with high technology. Modern technology, specially designed cell shell with high durability, zigzag design to prevent electrolyte stratification due to too high cell shell, smartly designed float cap to help retain acidic solution and just a few simple steps can check the level of acidic water in the cell.
How long is the battery life of an electric forklift?
The life of the battery depends on the number of times of charging and discharging the battery
For example, a battery has an average number of recharges and discharges about 1200 times. If the company works 1 shift a day and the battery charges and discharges once a day, the average life of the battery is about 4 years. If the company works 2 shifts a day and the battery charges and discharges twice a day, the average life of the battery is shortened to about 2 years. The more times the battery is charged and discharged, the lower the charging capacity of the battery. However, the life of the tank depends on the maintenance and care regime, such as monitoring the acid solution not to run out, using the appropriate charger…
