The performance of lead-acid batteries in extreme environments can be affected by many factors, including temperature, humidity, vibration, and so on.
1.High temperature environment
Performance:
●Reduced battery capacity: In a high temperature environment, the water inside the battery will quickly evaporate, resulting in an increase in the concentration of the electrolyte, which in turn reduces the battery capacity. This will affect the use time and work efficiency of the forklift.
●Shorter battery life: long-term operation in a high temperature environment will accelerate the rate of chemical reaction inside the battery, resulting in the destruction of the internal structure of the battery and the loss of active substances, thereby shortening the service life of the battery.
●Increased safety risks: In a high temperature environment, the battery may overheat, and even cause safety risks such as fire or explosion.
Countermeasures:
●Try to avoid using a forklift for a long time in a high temperature environment.
●Check the electrolyte density and liquid level of the battery regularly, and add distilled water in time.
●Make sure there is adequate ventilation around the battery to dissipate the heat generated by the battery.
2. Low temperature environment
Performance:
●Battery capacity reduction: At low temperatures, the chemical reaction rate inside the battery will slow down, resulting in a reduction in the current and voltage output of the battery, which affects the capacity and use time of the battery.
●Charging difficulties: at low temperatures, the charging efficiency of the battery will be reduced, the charging time will be longer, and even the situation may not be fully charged.
●Unstable battery performance: In a low temperature environment, the performance of the battery will become unstable, and there may be a sudden power failure or failure to start.
Countermeasures:
●When using a forklift in a low temperature environment, the battery should be preheated in advance.
●Charge with a charger suitable for low temperatures and ensure that the charging process is complete.
●Check the insulation performance and connection of the battery regularly to ensure that the battery is in good working condition.
3.Humidity environment
Performance:
●Battery corrosion: In a high humidity environment, the battery shell and pole may be corroded, resulting in reduced battery performance and increased safety risks.
●Deterioration of insulation performance: High humidity deteriorates the performance of the insulation materials inside the battery, which may cause faults such as short circuits.
Countermeasures:
●Ensure that the battery is stored and used in a proper humidity environment. Avoid high or low humidity.
●Check the insulation performance and connection of the battery regularly, and replace the damaged insulation materials and connections in time.
4. Vibration environment
Performance:
●Battery internal damage: In a vibration environment, the plate and separator inside the battery may be damaged, resulting in reduced battery performance and increased safety risks.
●Loose battery: Vibration may also cause the battery fasteners to loosen or fall off, affecting the normal use of the battery.
Countermeasures:
●Ensure the smooth operation of the forklift during the driving process and reduce the impact of vibration on the battery.
●Check the battery fasteners and connections regularly to ensure that the battery is firmly fixed.
In summary, the performance of forklift lead-acid batteries in extreme environments will be affected by a variety of factors. In order to ensure the normal use of the battery and extend the service life of the battery, corresponding countermeasures need to be taken to deal with these extreme environments.
