97% charge efficiency

Extraordinary Efficiency

With efficiency levels up to 97 percent, the V-HFM3 is more efficient than many other high frequency chargers on the market. It intelligently optimises charge rate based on various factors to help reduce charging time and expense.

More power has been packed into a smaller, stackable footprint that also saves space and energy.

Connected Capabilities

Configure, monitor and manage remotely. Integrate with other systems - such as Crown's V-Force Battery Monitoring Identification Device (BMID) - for additional levels of reporting and control.

Flexibility for the future

Flexibility for the Future

Charge virtually any lift truck battery in your operation while supporting both lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries as well as future technology changes. This is a charger that evolves with your changing business needs.

Key Options and Accessories

The optional BMID module is designed to mount on top of a lead-acid battery. It detects low electrolyte level and clearly communicates the need to water. The BMID monitors voltage and temperature, and then adjusts charge rate for optimum performance.

Pogo sticks are used in conjunction with charging stands to securely store battery cables away from the floor. They provide operators with easy access at optimal work height while preventing wear and tear on cables and connectors. The heavy-duty pogo stick is the standard option for all HFM3 Series chargers.
