Improve Forklift Battery Health

IEI (constant current – constant voltage – constant current) charge profile reduces the amount of heat generated during the entire charge cycle, minimizing battery-damaging heat. By monitoring the battery’s change in voltage over time, the charger prevents the battery from over and under charging, increasing your battery and charger efficiency.

An Intelligent Charging Assistant

Smart sensors and intelligent displays, including automatic voltage sensing and color LED indicator lights, make charging easy, safe and reliable. Automatically apply the correct charging profile upon connection without the use of a monitoring device.

Easy to Move, Easy to Install

The V-HFE³ Charger is a fraction of the size and weight of traditional chargers, making it easier to install in tight warehouse quarters. Its smaller footprint occupies less space so your charger space can also be used more efficiently. A universal mounting bracket is included that enables you to mount the charger to a charger stand, wall, shelf or rack. Its light weight makes it easy to move and easy to store.
