New Forklift and Industrial Batteries

When an excessive amount of water is added to a battery before it undergoes the charging process, a concerning situation arises. This oversupply of water causes the electrolyte, which is the solution inside the battery responsible for facilitating energy transfer, to expand beyond its normal capacity. Consequently, the expanded electrolyte can breach the confines of the battery's designated space and overflow. This overflow poses a dual threat: it has the potential to inflict harm on the battery itself by introducing foreign substances into its internal structure, possibly leading to chemical imbalances and diminished performance. Additionally, this electrolyte overflow could pose a risk to the individuals handling the battery, as the corrosive nature of the electrolyte may cause chemical burns or other injuries. Therefore, it is crucial to adhere to recommended guidelines for battery maintenance and avoid overwatering to prevent both battery damage and potential harm to operators.
