Compared to lead-acid batteries, the improved efficiency and longer run time of lithium-ion technology can save substantial time and money through increased productivity, smarter use of resources and a lower cost of ownership.
Convenient lateral charge ports allow for quick and easy opportunity charging without removing the battery from the lift truck.
On-truck displays show discharge levels and event codes without the need for an additional display, promoting ease of service and protecting battery life.
Battery management system helps extend battery life by preventing operation outside of warrantied conditions.
The high-frequency charger simplifies the charging process by communicating with the battery management system to ensure proper charging.
The V-Force Lithium-Ion Energy Storage Systems are ideal for multi-shift operations because they readily accept frequent opportunity charging at high recharge rates throughout each shift, without risking any damage to the battery. With opportunity charging during breaks and shift changes, the V-Force Lithium-Ion ESS:
Handles one shift or multiple
shifts with no need for extra batteries or the downtime
required to change them.
Increases uptime, enabling one battery to achieve more run time in a 24-hour period.
Outperforms lead-acid batteries, saving replacement and service costs over time.
Lithium-ion battery technology better maintains voltage and capacity in low temperature environments.
The fully integrated V-Force Lithium-Ion Compact Batteries are a cost-efficient entry into the world of lithium-ion technology. They are available for select pallet trucks, stackers and order pickers, combining the benefits of a compact design with efficient, long-lasting performance based on one of the most stable lithium chemistries available.
Integrated chargers as well as external chargers allow for easy opportunity charging. Additional value-added functions include a battery management system for extended battery life, an Early Warning System, and an in-truck display.
Lithium-ion technology virtually eliminates the time-consuming and hazardous tasks associated with lead-acid batteries.
The V-Force V-HFM3 high-frequency charger is a modular, scalable solution that supports multiple battery technologies, including Lithium-Ion. Efficient in both size and energy usage, it features up to 97 percent efficiency, helping reduce power consumption and cost.
