At Battery Supplies we offer many different AQ-LITH^® LiFePO4 battery solutions for logistics solutions and warehouse equipment. As the OEM is pushing their LiFePO4-driven electrical forklifts and handpallet trucks into the market, it goes without saying that the demand in the aftermarket is raising as well. 

Battery Supplies is happy to offer an alternative AQ-LITH^® LiFePO4 battery for your current lead battery. This technology offers unique benefits in terms of fast charging and intermediate charging. Within 2 to 3 hours your LiFePO4 battery is full recharged, but more recommended are intermediate charges where 25% of the battery capacity is restored withing 30 minutes of charging time. Although there is larger immediate investment cost, the calculation easily shows that a LifePO4 battery is in fact the cheapest possible maintenance-free battery solution if you take into account the longer battery lifetime, the fast and intermediate charging (which allows to opt for a lower capacity battery) and the labour cost you save as you avoid a 2nd (lead) battery for multi-shift operations. The battery is also fully maintenance-free so no separate charging station is required to charge the battery. 

Our AQ-LITH^® lithium batteries consist of pre-balanced racks of prismatic cells in Lithium-Iron-Phosphate (LiFePO4). This technology is a 100% safe technology and does not ignite or explode (as other lithium technologies, like NMC) might. Moreover, the cells are supervised on all different parameters through our in-house developed BMS (battery management system). We can assemble any custom-made AQ-LITH^® lithium battery, based on your specific battery requirements and available battery compartment dimensions, and are happy to include already several renowned equipment manufacturers in our customer portfolio. We have built custom-made LFP batteries for forklifts, AGV, diggers, dumpers, aerial platforms, agricultural vehicles, and for many more applications. This range is a very nice add-on to all our different lead solutions for traction batteries. More information on our custom-made solutions can be found in our new catalogue, which you can download here.  

In particular for hand pallet trucks we also offer a range of ready-built AQ-LITH^® insert LiFePO4 batteries in a  24V/100Ah and a 24V/200Ah configuration. These are insert batteries which means that we have reduced the dimensions of our batteries to an absolute minimum and makes them fit in 90% of the pallet jacks and hand pallet trucks. The batteries come with an external remote control box with a start/stop button, a buzzer and a display. We can offer these with or without a built-in charger, upon your convenience. Please find more information on this range.

In addition to these battery solutions for material handling and logistics equipment we also offer block batteries for smaller applications (e.g. AGV, cleaning equipment or aerial work platforms): our AQ-LITH^® M+ Series involves a range of LiFePO4 12V block batteries that can be connected both in parallel and serial configuration which allows therefor for a high level of flexibility. Each battery has an internal BMS for the supervision on (individual) battery level and can be used as a stand-alone battery. In case several batteries are connected, an external BMS is required for the supervision on pack level. Additional information on this range can be found here.

Through our sister company TVH Parts Holding (www.tvh.com) we also offer a range of stand-alone LiFePO4 block batteries for lighter applications. These batteries also have an internal BMS for internal supervision and monitoring of many different parameters. They cannot be connected in serial configuration, but are available in 12V, 24V, 36V and 48V block battery. Our P-range is also a fully waterproof range. Please have a look at the TVH battery catalogue as of page 30.
