Winter is coming,
How to maintain forklift lithium battery?
Compared with traditional lead-acid batteries, lithium batteries have incomparable advantages. Forklift lithium battery has the characteristics of short charging time, long service time, stable performance, high-intensity operation and high degree of automation and intelligence, which has added new strength to the development of forklift industry.
Temperature and humidity are the most critical storage conditions for lithium batteries. So how to maintain our forklift lithium battery in the cold winter?
Temperature still has a great impact on lithium batteries. The lower the temperature, the lower the activity of lithium batteries, which directly reduces the charge and discharge efficiency. Generally speaking, the working temperature of lithium batteries is between - 20 ° C and 60 ° C.
Point one
Indoor charging, avoid low temperature. If there are no indoor charging conditions, make full use of the waste heat when the battery is discharged and charge in the sun immediately after parking, so as to increase the charging capacity and avoid lithium precipitation.
Point 2
Fill as you use, shallow discharge and shallow filling. In winter, the activity of lithium battery decreases, which is very easy to cause over discharge and overcharge. At least, it will affect the service life of the battery, and at worst, it will cause combustion accidents. Therefore, we should pay more attention to charging in the way of shallow discharge and shallow charge in winter. In particular, do not park the vehicle for a long time by inserting the gun all the time to avoid overcharging.
Point three
In winter, lithium batteries should be kept fully charged, which can prolong battery life. The battery should be fully charged before use. If it is not fully charged once in a while, it has little impact on the battery, but it is often used without being fully charged. The battery will produce a kind of "memory", affect its continuous mileage and lose the service life of the battery.
Point 4
Please use the original charger when charging. The market is full of a large number of inferior chargers. Using inferior chargers will damage the lithium battery pack and even cause fire. If your charger can not be used normally, it is recommended to contact the official to buy a regular charger to ensure the charging quality.
Point five
Try not to park outdoors. There is a great difference between the outdoor temperature and the indoor temperature in winter. If conditions permit, it's best to park indoors. The air conditioning temperature should not be set too high, which can save electricity. When driving, you'd rather wear more clothes than lower the temperature setting.
In short, try to avoid low temperature and freezing during the use of lithium batteries in winter. If it is stored for a long time, please charge the battery to 40% and place it.
