5 Common Mistakes in Battery System Capacity Testing
IEEE and NERC both require battery capacity testing as a means of predicting a battery system’s ability to perform when called upon during a loss of AC power, for acceptance of new installations, and in determination of end of life criteria for system replacement. While NERC is very vague and just states that “Capacity testing must be done at said interval”, IEEE 450, 1106 and 1188 have clearly defined frequencies, prerequisites and instructions on how these tests should be conducted.
From results that are submitted to us for warranty consideration or review, a group of common errors have come to light. Below are the top 5 most common mistakes that are seen in capacity testing.
What You Need to Know About Single Point Watering Systems
Single Point Watering Systems (SPWS) are great for efficiently filling forklift batteries with water. They save time and labor, making material handling operations like warehouses and distribution centers more efficient. And safer, so operators don’t need to remove batteries from their lift trucks to water their batteries.
Why Battery Watering is Important
Battery watering is essential to prolonging the life of your forklift battery. Proper watering helps prevent premature battery failure and costly battery replacement. However, in many cases, companies are not properly watering their forklift batteries. When they...
