Selecting Charger

Hyster Lead Acid Battery Duration Guide

Chargers are selected to match battery type, voltage and size (Ah)

• Lead Acid Batteries are charged either with single phase chargers with power to complete the charge in either 8 or 12 hours or with High Frequency chargers, which while more expensive and requiring 3 phase AC supply, are more efficient often giving significant savings in electricity cost.
• Lithium Ion batteries require matching chargers which usually communicate via CANBUS with appropriate batteries.
  
  
• Hyster has a number of calculator tools to assist in battery and charger selection and to compare costs of buying and operating different solutions.
