Applied Energy Solutions: LithPack lithium-ion battery system

The new LithPack lithium-ion battery system for Class III pallet jacks optimizes production time and performance over lead acid or gel batteries by providing faster, more efficient charging. The unit eliminates the need for extra batteries and battery swapping equipment with a life cycle five times longer than that of lead acid or gel applications (20 hours with a 4-hour charge versus an 8-hour run time with a 16-hour charge.) Because their electrolyte level does not need to be monitored, lithiumion batteries are also virtually maintenance free. The system also includes: a custom battery monitoring system with cycle memory for determining battery health, powder-coated steel cabinet for durability, built in cable storage to prevent cable damage and for easy storage, water resistant design, and optional cooling system.
