Preventive Maintenance on Batteries & Chargers

---

Battery Concepts International provides preventive maintenance for batteries and chargers. We want your forklift batteries to last as long as possible to help lower your overall costs and keep production flowing. On average, lead-acid forklift batteries can provide about 2,000 charge cycles in their lifetime, which comes out to about five years of use. However, to get the most out of your batteries and investment, they must have proper maintenance.

• Overall inspection and Condition
• Inspection of cables and contact tips
• Inspect hydration irrigations systems
• Neutralize and clean mild corrosion built-up

Forklift batteries can last far longer than their warranties when they undergo proper, scheduled maintenance. Our team performs comprehensive tests on your equipment which includes batteries, chargers, and battery charging equipment along with any applicable accessories. 

We provide the most reliable battery preventive maintenance for forklift batteries with services that include: 

• Watering 
• Washing 
• Battery repair and rebuild
• Charger troubleshooting
• Charger repair 
• Equalization charges 
• Emergency Response for acid spills

We recommend maintenance depending on how often you use your equipment, the type of equipment being used, and the age of the equipment. It can range from weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or yearly depending on your needs. 

As we perform some tasks that could be dangerous, we take safety in the workplace extremely seriously. We follow all Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements and standards to keep our staff safe. As we work in close proximity with acidic electrolytes, which can cause chemical burns or even blindness, we ensure our employees have the proper equipment and training to handle such materials. 

This is also why we have an emergency response team to clean up acid spills both at our facility and when you need them at your facility. 

Give us a call today if you have any questions or concerns about our preventative maintenance program or our services. Our staff will help you decide on which batteries will be best for your facility and industry, along with picking the proper chargers and accessories. When you come to Battery Concepts International, you’ll be prepared with everything you’ll need to stay charged!
