Intelligent BMS

 

Intelligent Cell Balancing:

Actively monitors and balances the charge across all cells within a battery pack. This ensures each cell operates within its optimal range, preventing overcharging or deep discharging scenarios, therefore enhancing the overall efficiency and lifespan of the pack.

Outlasts

Temperature Monitoring:

Designed to efficiently monitor and control cell temperature, incorporating advanced heating and cooling mechanisms to ensure optimal battery performance, enhancing safety, and extending the operational lifespan of our batteries.

BMS (Technology Page) (5)-1

Outlasts

Enhanced Safety:

UL Listed and designed for safety, continuously monitoring key operational parameters such as voltage at the individual cell level. If any anomalies are detected that could lead to unsafe conditions. The system intervenes by adjusting the operational limits or, if necessary, shutting down the battery to prevent damage or hazards.  

Outlasts

Optimized Performance:

Through real-time data analysis and adjustments, our BMS ensures the battery operates in its most efficient state. This not only maximizes performance but also conserves energy, leading to longer run times and reduced energy costs.


 

LiFePO4 Chemistry

Longer Lifespan

Achieves longer life cycles and endures thousands of charge-discharge cycles before the end of its life, lowering downtime, and operating costs.

Energy Efficiency

Stores more energy vs lead acid, achieves longer runtimes, stays at a consistent voltage for peak performance, and minimizes charging breaks.

Truly Sustainable

Free of hazardous lead, acid, nickel, and cobalt, making our lithium-ion batteries a truly sustainable and ethical energy solution.

Faster Charging

Charges in 1-3 hours versus 8+ for lead acid, speeding up equipment, enhancing efficiency and reducing the need for spares.

Low Maintenance

Low maintenance, saving time and resources, lowering ownership costs, and eliminating downtime from maintenance.

Stable Temperatures

Very stable due to phosphate-based cathode material, which withstands high temperatures without decomposing.

End-Of-Life Recycling and R&D

End-Of-Life Battery Recycling

Battery Recycling Second Life Anchor Link Visual (Technology Page)-1

In partnership with one of the leading recycling firms in our industry, we will be utilizing a unique liquid solution and shredding process to ensure every component of our end-of-life batteries is meticulously separated and recycled. This will revitalize minerals and compounds, reflecting our commitment to a circular economy where nothing is wasted.

Embodying our vision, everything will be valued, and each material will find a new purpose. Together, with our industry-leading partner, we will not merely recycle batteries; we will actively safeguard our planet for future generations, ensuring sustainability and innovation in recycling.

Second-Life Research and Development

Testing

As part of our commitment to sustainability and resource conservation, we are exploring the potential of second-life applications for batteries used in material handling and ground support equipment. By repurposing these batteries as stationary energy storage systems, we can potentially extend their useful life beyond the typical end of life.

This approach not only reduces waste but also diminishes our reliance on new material production and mining. Our efforts in recycling these batteries for less demanding applications underscore our dedication to environmental stewardship and sustainable energy solutions.
