Cycle Life Notes for LiFePO4 Forklift Batteries

When operating lithium iron phosphate forklift batteries, users need to follow proper operation specifications to maximize the full cycle life of the products. First of all, avoid frequent over-discharge behavior in daily use, even though LiFePO4 chemistry has strong tolerance for deep discharge, long-term deep discharge below the recommended lowest voltage will still cause irreversible loss of active materials inside the cell, and reduce the total cycle number of the whole pack. Secondly, do not carry out overcharging operation that exceeds the specified voltage limit, the built-in BMS protection system can cut off the charging output automatically in most cases, but users should not use mismatched chargers to avoid unnecessary safety risks and negative influence on cycle performance. Thirdly, keep the battery working and storage environment within the recommended temperature range, extremely high ambient temperature in summer continuous high-load operation will accelerate the aging of internal materials, while too low temperature in winter will increase the internal resistance of the battery, if you need to use the equipment in low temperature area, you can properly do pre-heat treatment before high-power discharge to protect the battery pack. It is also suggested that users do not keep the battery in full charge or zero charge state for a very long time when the equipment is not put into use for more than one month, maintain the remaining capacity between 40% to 70% during idle period, which can well protect the electrode structure and keep the cycle performance at a good level. Jianshu New Energy has summed up these practical operation notes after years of practical test and usage feedback collection of industrial power batteries. For users who have supporting usage demand, the power matching scheme for BYD Forklift can also refer to these general operation specifications to obtain more stable long-term use effect.
