Flexible and efficient battery chargers for electric forklift fleets

Wels, Austria - The cost of charging large and medium-sized traction batteries in electric forklifts and other ground conveyor systems is not insignificant. Battery chargers from the Fronius "Selectiva" range, which utilise Active Inverter Technology, demonstrate the considerable savings potential in this area.


Many financial controllers - commissioned by management to monitor company efficiency - would rub their eyes in disbelief if they knew by how much the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of a forklift fleet could be reduced by using the correct battery charger technology. Electricity costs would plummet, maintenance expenditure on batteries would fall, battery life could increase by up to 25% and valuable storage space would be freed up. A dramatic cut in CO2 emissions would also boost a company's green credentials.


Intelligent battery charger technology has been around for many years, but the economic and environmental benefits of Fronius Active Inverter Technology as opposed to conventional inverter (high frequency) and old 50 Hz transformer technologies are still not widely known. This is all about to change. "Selectiva" chargers with "Active Inverter Technology" from the Austrian company Fronius offer the intralogistics sector high levels of energy efficiency and constant output levels throughout the entire charging process, all in a compact format. Lower ongoing operating costs and less environmental impact round off the package.
