The essential link of forklift battery maintenance is to regularly supplement the battery with distilled water/deionized water. In the process of charge, discharge and storage, the battery will evaporate some water due to the use of the environment and internal high temperature reaction. If you do not add water to the battery in time, the battery will be in a state of water shortage for a long time, which will affect the battery service life. So, how do we water the forklift battery? When will it be added? In what way? How much is appropriate to add? The following is a detailed introduction for you!
When using batteries, you need to periodically check the water shortage status of batteries based on the operating environment and temperature, and replenish water to batteries in time.
If the battery level is lower than the lowest liquid level, it is necessary to add deionized water or distilled water to the highest and lowest liquid level between, it is strictly prohibited to add battery stock solution or tap water. Battery stock solution will dilute or increase the original specific gravity of electrolyte, resulting in the deterioration of battery performance. Tap water contains too much impurities, will lead to thin battery reaction, long-term addition of tap water may cause short circuit, damage the battery.
Forklift battery water adding time
It is not recommended to add water during the use of the battery. It should be added at the end of the charge (one hour before the end of the charge). When the battery is charged, the bubbles inside the battery flip and react violently.
Forklift battery water principle
A small number of times, it is strictly prohibited to add water beyond the highest level. If too much water is added, the forklift battery may overflow when charging and moving, resulting in a decrease in the overall specific gravity of the battery, reduced performance, water and corrosion of the box, and even battery short circuit in serious cases.
Before using forklift batteries, read the battery manual carefully and the warning label on the battery box, and try to add water to the forklift batteries according to this standard, which is conducive to efficient use and correct maintenance of the batteries, and extend the service life of the batteries.
Forklift battery water adding method
Battery intelligent water adding system is a patented product independently developed by Lianhong, which is an automatic water replenishing equipment for rich liquid battery. It can comprehensively replace manual water adding maintenance operation of battery, real-time monitoring of battery water shortage status, automatic water replenishing, induction and stop when full of water. After installation of the equipment, the electrolyte level can be kept in a healthy state throughout the whole process to ensure stable and balanced characteristics of battery electrolyte. Optimize the efficiency of battery equipment and prolong the service life of battery.
Lham automatic water refill system retains the advantages of high stability, strong environmental adaptability and low price of ordinary lead-acid batteries, while obtaining stable service life and great maintenance convenience at a very low cost, with a very considerable cost performance.
The battery is very important for the electric forklift, its normal operation is a necessary condition for the efficient operation of forklift. Adding water to a battery is not as simple as opening the cap and filling it with water. What kind of water to add, when to add it, and what situations to add it to are all things that need to be learned. Correct and timely water refill can ensure the good operation of batteries and effectively prolong the service life of batteries.
