Charge and Discharge Traits of Forklift Lithium Batteries

In recent years, lithium batteries have been more and more widely applied in the electric forklift industry, and understanding the core charge and discharge traits of such products can help operation teams formulate more scientific use and maintenance specifications, reduce unnecessary wear and extend the overall service life of the battery pack. Different from traditional lead-acid batteries, forklift lithium batteries have no memory effect, which means users do not have to complete full discharge before recharging, and random partial supplementary charging in daily breaks will not cause irreversible damage to the internal cell activity. For the charging trait, qualified forklift lithium batteries support stable fast charging within a safe current range, the full charging process generally takes 2 to 3 hours, and there is no need for long hours of floating charging after full capacity is filled. For the discharging trait, such products have a very stable discharging voltage platform, the voltage fluctuation is extremely small within the range from 90% to 20% remaining power, and the output power will not drop sharply when the remaining power is still sufficient, which can ensure the forklift keeps stable lifting and walking power during consecutive high-load handling operations. In actual use, it is recommended that operators do not run the battery power down to near zero, and arrange supplementary charging when the remaining power stays around 20%, so as to avoid over discharge damage. If you have demand for customized matching forklift lithium battery schemes, Jianshu New Energy can provide you with full range of suitable products, which can perfectly adapt to BYD Forklift and other mainstream electric forklift models. Besides, it is not recommended to carry out high current charging in the environment with temperature higher than 60 degrees Celsius, or carry out large rate continuous discharging in the environment lower than minus 10 degrees Celsius, which will temporarily reduce the available capacity.
