The batteries commonly used in forklifts are lead-acid batteries. In order to extend the battery life and save costs, proper maintenance is required. How can the battery life of an electric forklift be improved?
To prevent leakage or corrosion, the battery cover can be cleaned with water or wiped with a damp cloth and kept dry. In order to eliminate voltage and proportion imbalances, the battery needs to be charged evenly. Regular maintenance is necessary for forklift batteries to extend their lifespan. Forklift batteries are in standby mode and are normally kept in a charged state, only discharging during power outages. To prolong the lifespan of forklift batteries, an intelligent charger (constant voltage and current control) is used, which switches to a floating charge state after the battery is fully charged. For a 12 V terminal voltage battery, the normal floating charge voltage is between 13.5 V and 13.8 V.
It is necessary to schedule charging for electric forklifts. Electric forklifts are equipped with display instruments similar to lighting vehicles. Generally, the most suitable charging time is when the vehicle’s discharge depth reaches between 70% and 50%. When the power of an electric forklift is insufficient, it must be charged immediately to avoid over-discharging and damaging the battery.
When selecting a charger for an electric forklift, it is important to choose the correct one. Original chargers provided with electric forklifts are intelligent chargers. When using an intelligent charger, it can automatically determine the battery’s charging level and remaining capacity. It can also adjust the charging current automatically, effectively activate the battery capacity, and slow down plate sulfation.
In fact, electric forklifts can be charged frequently during regular operation. Even when an electric forklift is not in use, the battery still retains a significant amount of charge. It is recommended to charge the electric forklift at least once a day, keeping it in a shallow cycle, which extends the battery life of the electric forklift.
① To ensure the battery’s lifespan, any battery put into use should be in a fully charged state. Undercharged batteries should not be used.
② Batteries should avoid overcharging and over-discharging (In daily use, it is recommended to recharge when the battery level reaches around 20%).
Note: After deep discharge, it is advisable to recharge the battery as soon as possible. We recommend not leaving discharged batteries idle for more than a day. Additionally, if the battery is significantly discharged beyond 80% of its rated capacity, it may shorten the battery’s lifespan. Before charging, it is recommended to stop using the battery and let it cool down for a while.
③ Daily maintenance: Charge the battery after each discharge.
After charging, it is necessary to check the electrolyte level. If needed, top up the electrolyte level to the designated level with distilled water at the end of the charging process. The electrolyte level should not be lower than the battery protection plate. Never add acid!
④ Weekly maintenance: Check if the pole bolts are tightened and retighten them if necessary.
⑤ Monthly maintenance: During the final stage of charging, while the charger is still connected, measure and record the voltage of all battery cells and battery packs.
If significant changes or discrepancies are found compared to previous measurements, it is necessary to contact the after-sales service for further inspection and maintenance.
⑥ Battery preservation: To prevent leakage, the battery should always be kept clean and dry. The liquid in the battery case must be sucked out and removed. After cleaning, repair the non-insulated parts of the battery case to ensure insulation and prevent corrosion of the battery case.
⑦ Battery storage: If the battery is not in use, fully charged batteries should be stored in a dry, non-foggy indoor area. To ensure the battery is always in standby mode, perform equalization charging once a month.
