Why Fleetman Consulting Inc.?

With over 35 years of industry experience, the owner of Fleetman Consulting Inc. has learned how to help you make all the right battery charger choices.

We have economically priced chargers that match up well with low use, used forklifts and we can also supply our customers with high quality, fully featured chargers that work well with fast paced environments operating in single shift or multi-shift work environments.

For those users wanting to operate two plus shifts per day, we can also supply opportunity charge technology chargers and fast charge technology chargers which will eliminate the need for spare batteries and a battery changing area, provided that your work flow will allow enough time for short periods of re-charging spread evenly throughout the workday.

Choosing the right forklift battery charger or electric pallet jack charger is critical for maintaining a healthy battery but it’s equally important so that you have enough “fuel” at the start of each shift, and throughout the shift, to meet the demands of your business.

Let us help you make the right choice that matches up with the needs of your battery, workflow and your budget.

The Top Ten Issues To Consider When Choosing A Forklift Battery Charger Or An Electric Pallet Jack Battery Charger

  1. Make sure you source the battery from the same place that you source the charger. This way, if you have a problem with either the battery or the charger, you can go back to one vendor for support. Sometimes it isn’t always clear whether the battery or charger is the problem. If you source both items from the same place, you will prevent one company from blaming the other for the issue at hand.Ultra Maxx Forklift Battery Charger
  2. The charger ampere capacity output must be properly matched to the ampere hour capacity of the battery to prevent irreversible damage to the battery due to chronic undercharging or overcharging. Our experience has shown that roughly 50% of the forklift battery chargers currently matched to existing forklift batteries have been matched incorrectly, resulting in a battery life that is below normal. At Fleetman Consulting Inc., we take the time to make sure that the forklift battery charger is properly matched to your forklift battery.The output voltage of the charger must match the battery output voltage and the operating voltage of the forklift’s electrical system to avoid battery damage during charging.
  3. The output voltage of the charger must match the battery output voltage and the operating voltage of the forklift’s electrical system to avoid battery damage during charging.
  4. Make sure the connector on the charger matches the connector on the battery and the connector on the forklift. A common mistake made by operators is to plug the charger into the forklift instead of the forklift battery. Doing this can damage the electrical system of the forklift and lead to a costly repair.
  5. Always purchase an auto start / auto stop charger that is designed to stop the charging process when the battery is fully charged.
  6. Look for a charger that monitors battery temperature and adjusts the charge rate when the temperature falls outside of the normal operating range. High battery temperatures, beyond what is considered normal, will have a direct impact on the life of the battery.
  7. Make sure you choose a forklift battery charger that has the ability to perform an equalize charge on the battery. Think of battery equalization as being similar to shocking a battery to keep it in good health. Battery equalization is required at least once per week to prevent a forklift battery from accumulating excessive lead sulfate on the lead plates inside the battery cell. Ignoring this procedure will result in a reduction of battery capacity and life.
  8. Most forklift battery chargers are sold without the cables that connect the charger to an electrical supply. The cost of these cables, and the cost to have a certified electrician connect the charger to your electrical supply, should be considered when determining the total cost of the charger.
  9. Check your electrical supply to make sure it has enough capacity to handle the normal operating amperage draw, but also the start-up amperage draw which is typically higher. Keep in mind that when a forklift battery charger initially starts up for the first time during the charge cycle, it draws a lot of current and this may affect other electrical products such as computers in your facility if your electrical service is inadequate. You may have experienced a similar situation with your home dryer where shortly after pressing the dryer’s start button, you noticed your home lights flickering momentarily.
  10. Output cables that connect the charger to the forklift are usually supplied with the forklift battery charger but these cables may not be long enough to suit the location of the charger in relation to the location of the forklift during battery charging. Also, it is very important to locate the charger up off the ground on a wall bracket or on pallet racking to keep the charger from being damaged by the forklift. As well, the cables and connector should be mounted up high and off the ground by using a flexible pogo stick or hanger to prevent them from being run over and damaged by the forklift.

Where To Start When Looking For A Forklift Battery Charger Or Electric Pallet Jack Battery Charger

  1. Have a qualified electrician assess your electric system to determine whether there is enough electrical capacity ( amps ) to handle the demands of an industrial battery charger during start - up and during normal operation.UltraCharge Forklift Battery Charger
  2. By looking at the electrical panel, find out what voltages are available and make sure the charger is properly matched to these voltages. Chargers today are usually flexible enough to match with whatever voltage supply is available.
  3. Find out whether you have single phase power or three phase power available at your electrical panel. You can source a charger to match either type but it is important that the charger company knows this in advance. Three phase power is more cost effective and efficient at charging a large battery than a single phase charger but the purchase price of a three phase charger is more costly than a single phase charger. Sometimes the size of the battery will dictate that you need to use a 3 phase charger to properly charge the battery and keep it in good health. The larger the forklift battery, the greater the chance that a 3 phase forklift battery charger will be required.
  4. Depending on the available space in your facility and how many lift trucks you operate, you have the option of choosing an individual charger for each forklift or you could select a style of charger that contains more than one charger in the same box. Having more than one charger in the same box saves on space and reduces the overall cost of the chargers required.
  5. If your operation handles flammable substances, it is possible that the forklift, battery and charger should be “EE” rated or explosion proof rated and if these types of construction are not available, then you will need to make arrangements to mount the charger outside of the potentially flammable area and the charging of the forklift battery will need to take place outside of the flammable area as well. Check with your insurance company and your own company policies to find out what is required ahead of time.

New, Used & Reconditioned Forklift Battery Chargers & Electric Pallet Jack Battery Chargers

Unless you take the necessary steps to thoroughly test a used forklift battery charger to make sure it is working correctly, we would always recommend that you acquire a new or reconditioned forklift battery charger instead of a used forklift battery charger. A used forklift battery charger that is not functioning correctly, or isn’t set up correctly, will likely damage a battery and shorten it’s life.

Forklift Battery Chargers Can Be A Fire Hazard

Forklift battery chargers and electric pallet jack battery chargers operate using high amounts of energy. Positioning forklift battery chargers away from flammable materials and clutter will help reduce the chance that the charger will be a source of fire at your facility in the event of a charger malfunction or in the event of misuse. Mounting a forklift battery charger on a wall using steel shelf brackets or mounting them on a steel pallet racking shelf are two good options.
