Selection Lithium-Ion Battery chargers for Intralogistics

Versatile and Safe - our selection lithium-ion chargers

Group of SelectION lithium-ion battery chargers.
With our SelectION lithium-ion chargers we offer a safe, efficient and flexible charging solution – that makes Plug & Charge to your new standard. Smart engineering by the highest quality standard ensures easy operations and reduced downtime. Thanks to our intelligent Fronius CAN protocol, the BatteryLink, a seamless and fast communication between the charger and lithium-ion battery is guaranteed. No additional manual setting of characteristics or parameters are necessary. This ensures a safe and efficient lithium-ion charging process at any time.

Smart engineering for high availability

We at Fronius Perfect Charging are committed to highest quality and smart engineering. Our chargers have an exceptionally long life expectancy and fulfill the highest product standards. Together with our low error rate our chargers enhance the charging processes to keep your electric forklift truck fleet moving. Impressive five year product warranty* included.

Charging efficiency to reduce total costs

Time and space in intralogistics is crucial. This is why our SelectION lithium-ion chargers offer a high energy efficiency integrated in an exceptionally compact and scalable product design. The light-weighted and modular chargers can be applied wherever they optimize your workflows.

Flexible to meet your needs

Your charging needs are constantly changing and evolving? All our chargers can be easily scaled to fit evolving charging requirements. Thanks to the multivoltage support, lithium-ion batteries with different voltage classes (24V-80V) can be charged downward compatible with only one charger. Your advantages? Highest flexibility among your charging workflows.

BatteryLink - Revolutionized CAN communication

Communication is key – not just in business life – also for our SelectION chargers. That’s why we revolutionized the CAN Communication between the charger and the battery with one goal: to make the communication as easy and user-friendly as possible. When our protocol is implemented by battery manufacturer, plug & charge is your new standard.

Through an automatic baud rate detection, the charger adapts individually to your lithium-ion battery. Your benefit? Versatile charging ensuring highest levels of safety

  • Baud rate can be fixed at the charger (125 kpbs, 250 kpbs, 500 kpbs or 1 mbps) or set to automatic detection.
  • The hardware interface automatically detects the voltage of the connected batteries.
  • CANopen: CAN 4.0 A 11Bit
  • The communication between BMS and charger is monitored (heartbeats every 100 ms).

Your benefits with Selection Lithium-Ion Forklift battery chargers

Benefit from flexible charging solutions with a competitive edge. Our SelectION chargers are designed to seamlessly integrate into and enhance your intralogistics operations.

Multivoltage - One Charger for many Opportunities

Multivoltage capability enables one charger to charge lithium-ion batteries from 24-80V, the same charger can also be used to charge batteries with lower voltages. This makes the charging process straightforward and safe by avoiding the use of an incompatible charger.

1.      Avoid expensive peak loads

A maximum AC power can be set for gentle charging over a certain period of time, helping to avoid expensive peak loads.

More choice of compatible batteries

SelectION chargers recognize the communication speed of the BMS (Battery Management System) and adapt to it accordingly. This allows a wide range of batteries to be served.

Safe time with Plug & Charge

Thanks to our BatteryLink communication protocol, the charging process can be initiated in a fast and easy way. All you need to do is drive the forklift truck to the charging station, plug it in and charge!

Make use of beneficial energy rates

The calendar function on our SelectION chargers makes time controlled-charging possible. Save costs by taking advantage of nontariff energy rates.

Better predictability and transparency

Optimize the efficiency of your charging processes by retrieving the data via the integrated USB port and analyzing the relevant statistics.

Reduce sparking at high currents to a minimum

If the charging lead is disconnected while charging is in progress, the external start/stop function prevents sparking.

 

Voltage fluctuations?

The high mains tolerance of our chargers ensures a continuous operation even with voltage fluctuations from -15% to +30*%.

Customize to your specific needs

The display can be configured according to your needs to visualize the parameters that are most relevant to you.

Why lithium-ion traction batteries

The low complexity in handling argues for the use of lithium-ion batteries: They are maintenance-free and do not need to be replaced even during multi-shift operation. Instead, the batteries can be opportunity charged during breaks or shift changes. Whether to use lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries should be decided individually for each case.
