To make your new or existing
forklift battery virtually maintenance free, we recommend installing an automatic battery watering
system and water level indicator light. This can be accomplished for less
than $20 per cell, plus (1) $50 indicator module (installed). The benefits
are:
- Weekly watering takes just one to two
minutes.
- No user contact with the battery or vent
caps.
- No safety equipment required (such as eye
wash systems and protective gear).
- Narrow isle trucks do not require removal of
the battery for watering.
- Accidental overfilling, acid overflow and
corrosion are eliminated.
- Achieve the maximum number of cycles and
productivity, usually 7yrs or more.
- Optional water level indicator light further
reduces maintenance and allows operators and management to easily
monitor battery water levels at a glance.
