electric forklift battery weight

electric forklift battery weight changes counterweight, floor load and tray-extract hardware. This checklist asks for mass with units, compartment envelope and the documents that prove a substitute still fits. It is not an ESG scorecard and it does not claim a completed carbon program.

Fields that must sit on one brief

kg / lb Tray mass including electrolyte or pack

Write the weighing basis in kg or lb. A dry tray and a filled tray are not interchangeable on a floor-load note. If the truck still needs the original tray mass for stability, a lighter chemistry is an open choice, not an automatic accept.

Ah @ V Capacity at named voltage

Amp-hour without voltage is incomplete. 36 V and 48 V classes need separate lines when a fleet mixes both.

mm Compartment L x W x H

A lighter chemistry that sits short in the tray still needs ballast or a drawing before it is accepted.

V / ph / Hz Charger input if priced

Leave this blank only when the charger is a stated exclusion. Do not assume 480 V three-phase supply.

Attachments to request after a match

These are request labels. This desk does not host downloadable factory files.

  • Weight drawing or scale ticket with units
  • Capacity sheet stating Ah, voltage and discharge basis
  • Connector pinout and cable cross-section
  • UN38.3, SDS or equivalent file the factory already holds
  • Charger nameplate if a charger is on the same order

Order of checks before accepting an alternative

  1. Lock the mass basis

    Confirm whether quoted weight is wet, dry or pack-only. Reject a substitute that only says "lighter" without kg or lb.

  2. Fit the compartment

    Compare L x W x H and hold-down points. A shorter lithium pack can still fail if the truck needs the original tray mass for stability.

  3. Separate site work

    Charging-room electrical, stands and freight stay outside the tray price unless the RFQ included them. See the scope note.

  4. Read remaining open choices

    Chemistry, watering versus BMS and spare-tray count stay buyer decisions. This page does not rank lead-acid against lithium.

Send the weight and capacity brief

Use the form when mass, voltage and destination are ready. Optional budget and supplier preference merge into the requirement field at submit. No live quote is required first.
