Battery Pack Care for Lithium-Ion Forklift Trucks

Lithium-ion forklift trucks are now widely applied in warehousing, logistics, manufacturing and other scenarios for their high energy efficiency, low operation noise and zero emission features. Proper daily care for the supporting lithium-ion battery packs can effectively extend the whole service life of the equipment, reduce overall operation cost, and avoid unexpected safety hazards caused by improper operation.

In daily use, it is not recommended to exhaust the full battery capacity before charging. It is advised to arrange supplementary charging when the remaining power is around 20 percent, the shallow charge and shallow discharge mode can slow down the cell attenuation process obviously. During charging, keep the surrounding environment dry and well ventilated, stay away from high temperature heat sources and flammable explosive items, and confirm the charging plug is connected firmly to avoid abnormal heating caused by poor contact. Never use mismatched chargers for the battery pack, and do not mix chargers for different specification batteries.

For regular inspection, operators should check the battery shell regularly to confirm there is no deformation, liquid leakage or obvious damage. Once abnormal status is found, stop using the device immediately and contact professional maintenance personnel for detection, never disassemble any component of the battery pack privately. When the equipment needs to be stored for a long time, keep the battery power at 40 to 60 percent, control the storage temperature between 0 and 25 degrees Celsius, and supplement a small amount of power every month to avoid irreversible capacity loss caused by long-term power deficit.
