BATTERY LIFE
BLS + TCL TECHNOLOGY
TRADITIONAL
Time
An exclusive range of innovative solutions that manage energy, studied by competent personnel that have
many years experience in the professional cleaning field.
Managing energy: a very underestimated cost
• The cost connected to battery maintenance and life are so called “hidden” and usually underestimated
or not communicated correctly to the final user.
• On the purchase cost of a professional cleaning machine, the costs connected to battery replacement
and maintenance can arrive at up to two thirds of the initial machine cost in quite a short period of time.

Battery Life Saver
Choice of battery: an important decision
The different constructive technologies available on a battery can vary in either positive or negative points:
Wet
Sealed
• Good ratio between cost and cycles (only tubular type)
• Recharging of the batteries can be made in a closed area
• Battery maintains its charge during battery life
• No maintenance required
• Charging of batteries cannot be made in a closed area
• Periodic maintenance required
• Battery looses its charge during battery life
• Higher purchase cost
Talking about cycles: be careful! You’re talking about battery life time
A cycle is intended in a nearly total discharge of the battery, plus its total re-charge once again. The declared
cycles of a battery equals the declaration of its life; for examples, 100 discharges and relative recharges. Unlike the
“material handling” field, in which traction batteries are developed for an average use of at least 5 hours, the young
professional cleaning machine field has an average use of less than 2 hours.
The international norms in force make battery manufacturers declare the number of cycles connected to a discharge
in 5 hours. The “Cleaning” machine market cannot (if not for a limited number of larger machinery requirements)
recognise such discharge rate, as the machines are used on average for 2 hours.
At this point the cycles of a battery become much more important, as they are a lot less than what is declared,
respecting the international norms in force.
Cleaning machine reality compared to cycle declaration norms
Also the way the battery is used has an important impact on its life scale
Obtaining the best out of a battery cycle means two things: discharge the battery nearly to its minimum, and then
re-charge it once again to its total initial charge. A disorderly discharge and charge can not only reduce consistently
the life of the battery, but also make the battery loose its total charge during the life time of the battery.
Discharge

Complete cycle
The battery is discharged until
80% and then re-charged totally

Battery charger: a crucial choice!
The most frequent mistake made is under estimating the crucial role of a battery charger. As
in other uses, even in this field there are battery chargers with different quality and technical
performances; for example, the entry level chargers that do not control gasification and have
very low energy efficiency. Good quality batteries can suddenly become very low performing,
and cost a lot more in maintenance costs if the choice of the battery charger is not carefully
made.
