19 PRODUCT IN THE SPOTLIGHT SAFETY: Smart & acid-free ENVIRONMENT: Longer lasting ERGONOMICS: More power, less work POWER: Full power – all the time The high energy density of Li-ion batteries means the RX 20 Li-ion can work even longer hours. Throughout usage periods voltage remains stable and constant, so that the forklift can always deliver top performance. This battery also has no problems at sub-zero temperatures and at full power – making it ideal for cold storages. The plus in performance and the simple opportunity charging means there is basically no need for tiring battery changes. Li-ion batteries are maintenance-free, which reduces the organisational and physical work to a minimum. No water needs to be topped up, no acid levels need to be checked. Li-ion batteries are especially environ­ ment-friendly because their service life is more than double that of conventional lead-acid batteries. The significantly higher level of efficiency when charging and discharging also helps reduce the energy requirements still further. The individual high performance Li-ion battery cells in the modules are controlled and monitored by a sophisticated battery management system. An additional safety advantage is the acid-free operations, which in turn means no more battery gases.
