What batteries are available?
Many machines within our product portfolio have multiple battery options ranging from standard maintenance-free AGM batteries, to upgraded performance batteries and lithium options.
Across the range, most machines have an interchangeable battery design that enables operators to interchange AGM battery packs for a 24/7 continuous operation. This involves having a spare battery charged and ready to go (Note: Lithium batteries are not interchangeable).
Lithium batteries are available on many models within our range for applications where charging can only take place in short, sharp bursts. Lithium batteries allow operators to charge the batteries for short periods (known as opportunity charging) and are a perfect solution for high-intensity operations.
How big is the charger?
Charger sizes vary depending on the specification but, as a rule of thumb, electric tugger chargers are about the same size as an A4 piece of paper.
How do I know when to charge the battery?
Electric tuggers are fitted with a Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) which displays the charge level of the battery pack as a percentage. This gives operators a quick visual reference of the remaining battery life percentage along with 3 light indicators (green, yellow, and red).
When the battery needs charging, the BDI will display a yellow light, indicating that the battery should be charged as soon as possible. To maximize battery lifespan and performance, all batteries should be charged before the Battery Display Indicator shows 30% or less.
What is the ‘Battery Protection System (BPS)’?
An optional Battery Protection System (BPS) is available to protect the battery from misuse and prevent battery damage.
On reaching a battery life of 40%, the machine will slow to just below 1.24mph, highlighting to operators that the equipment needs to be charged.
At a battery life of 35%, the machine will slow further to approximately .62mph, at which point the machine must be charged.
The BPS system protects the integrity of the battery by forcing operators to charge the machines at the correct battery interval and depth of discharge, protecting against battery misuse and damage.
