The battery of an AGV car is one of its key components, and the service life of the battery will directly affect the service life of the AGV car. Therefore, it is very important to extend the lifespan of AGV car batteries. Below, we will provide a detailed introduction on how to extend the lifespan of AGV car batteries.
1、 Prevent overcharging
Overcharging is one of the main reasons for the shortened lifespan of AGV car batteries. Firstly, we need to understand the charging principle of AGV car batteries. The AGV car battery adopts a constant current and voltage charging method, which means that during the charging process, it is first charged with a constant current. When the voltage reaches a certain value, it switches to charging with a constant voltage. During this process, if the battery is already fully charged, continuing to charge will cause overcharging, thereby shortening the battery life.
So, how to avoid overcharging? Firstly, we need to choose a suitable charger. The charger for AGV car batteries needs to choose a constant current and voltage charger to ensure that overcharging does not occur during the charging process. Secondly, we need to grasp the charging time. In general, the charging time should be controlled at around 8 hours. Excessive or insufficient charging time can have a negative impact on the battery life. Finally, we need to control the magnitude of the charging current. If the charging current is too high, it can also lead to overcharging. Therefore, it is necessary to control the size of the charging current during the charging process.
2、 Maintenance and upkeep
AGV car batteries are a vulnerable component that must be properly maintained and serviced to extend their service life. We first need to regularly check the electrolyte level of the battery. If the electrolyte level is too low, it can cause the battery to overheat and shorten its lifespan. We also need to regularly discharge the battery to eliminate the memory effect inside the battery.
In addition to the above measures, we also need to master some maintenance skills. For example, avoiding the battery from being left unused for a long time, paying attention to the temperature of the battery, etc.
3、 Work environment
The working environment of AGV cars can also affect the battery life. Using batteries at low or high temperatures can easily shorten their lifespan. Therefore, when using batteries, it is necessary to pay attention to the ambient temperature and try to avoid using batteries at temperatures that are too low or too high. Secondly, we need to pay attention to the working humidity. Excessive humidity can cause the production of corrosive gases inside the battery, thereby accelerating battery damage. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to humidity control when using batteries.
In addition to the above measures, we also need to pay attention to other factors. For example, the vibration and impact of batteries can also have an impact on their lifespan, so it is necessary to try to avoid them as much as possible. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to the usage cycle. The service life of AGV car batteries is generally 3-5 years, so it is necessary to master the battery life cycle and replace the battery in a timely manner to ensure the normal use of AGV cars.
