Philadelphia Scientific has released the latest evolution of its iBOS Battery Manager.

The iBOS Battery Manager is designed to maximise battery fleet performance by minimising or eliminating the need to change batteries during work shifts and proactively servicing the batteries that need repair. This helps protect warranties and records all maintenance activity. 

"Battery Manager takes the guesswork out of managing a battery room, helping large fleet users save time and money," says Philadelphia Scientific vice president of sales and marketing Brian Crummy. 

"The system interprets data quickly and easily to create a lean and efficient battery room, helping to maximise battery runtime time and minimise costly battery changes, thereby making fleet operations more productive."

The system ensures forklift operators are always using the batteries that will get them the longest runtime and keep them on the floor and out of the battery room.
