In this blog post, you will learn how you can extend the service life of your forklift truck battery by using solar modules. We give you tips on how you can increase the energy efficiency of your business and save costs. Find out how you can use renewable energies to make your logistics processes more sustainable and improve your company’s profitability at the same time.
GIVE YOUR STARTER BATTERY A POWERFUL SOURCE OF ENERGY – WITH SOLAR MODULES
We thought about how we could solve the problem of the starter battery going flat if the truck is not used for a long period of time.
And we have found a technical solution! We have equipped our first large forklift truck with a solar module.
This means that your forklift truck is always ready for use! Our technical solution increases battery charge retention and the aim is to increase availability and uptime for our customers. Another advantage is that our customers save on service calls, as our service technicians no longer have to bridge your truck on site, thus saving costs.
TECHNICAL DATA
Two modules are installed per forklift truck, each of which has an output of 2 x 70 watts and can charge forklift truck batteries up to 145 aH.
Gradually, all the large forklift trucks in our rental fleet will be equipped with the solar modules.
YOU TOO CAN UPGRADE WITH SOLAR MODULES
We offer our customers the option of equipping their own large forklift trucks with solar modules. An additional advantage of the modules is that they are environmentally friendly. The battery lasts longer and therefore does not need to be replaced as quickly. We are excited about our technical solution and look forward to providing our customers with an even better service.
If you are not yet using solar modules, you should definitely consider using this innovative technology. Contact us and find out more about our solar modules!
