How to regenerate traction batteries from a deep discharge state

Lead-acid batteries, such as those used to power electric forklift trucks in intralogistics, are meant to be used on a regular basis. If they remain unused for any length of time – for example during a shutdown – they may suffer a permanent loss of capacity. A deep discharge occurs when the residual capacity falls below 20 percent. This can damage the battery or even render it unusable. Unfortunately,
many operators are completely unaware that this has happened until they try to restart their production lines or logistics systems. The consequences are the high costs and time wasted in purchasing new batteries or regenerating batteries from a deep discharge state.

Selectiva battery chargers from Fronius Perfect Charging have their own conservation charge, which continuously supplies the connected battery with power. The harmful sulphation caused by a deep discharge is thus reliably prevented. The batteries are ready to use immediately, even if they have been out of action for a long time.
