The 3.5-ton explosion-proof lithium-ion forklift belongs to the category of special explosion-proof equipment, which can be used in industrial sites where flammable and explosive gases, liquids or dust are mixed. The safe configuration of this type of equipment is the core of ensuring the safety of operations.
The first is the electrical explosion-proof safety configuration. This type of equipment will be designed with an electrical system that meets the explosion-proof requirements. Key electrical components will be equipped with explosion-proof joints. Through specific process and size control, flammable and explosive media can be prevented from entering or the flame can spread outward. Some non-critical signal transmission and control loops are designed with intrinsically safe designs to limit the voltage, current and other parameters in the circuit to ensure that even if a short circuit or spark occurs, the energy is not enough to ignite the surrounding medium. In addition, explosion-proof overcurrent, overload, undervoltage and overvoltage protection devices will be equipped to cut off the power supply in time when there is an abnormality. At the same time, the equipment is equipped with conductive tires and electrostatic towing zones, which can export the static electricity generated during operation to the ground in time to avoid the danger caused by the accumulation of static electricity
Secondly, the mechanical explosion-proof safety configuration, in order to suppress friction sparks, the equipment's forks, wheel hubs and other components that are prone to collision or friction, usually use copper alloy or aluminum bronze and other materials that do not generate sparks, and heavy-duty friction parts will also be equipped with special wear-reducing sleeves; the braking system preferentially uses wet brakes to avoid high temperatures or sparks during dry friction braking; the cooling system uses a closed structure to prevent heat from accumulating to the ignition temperature of the surrounding medium, while ensuring stable heat dissipation to meet the needs of long-term operation of the equipment.
Finally, the exclusive explosion-proof lithium battery safety configuration, the battery pack as a whole will be sealed or explosion-proof design to meet the requirements of explosion-proof, equipped with an explosion-proof battery management system, real-time monitoring of each single battery voltage, temperature, current and other parameters, when the temperature is too high, abnormal voltage, etc., will be the first time to issue a warning and cut off the battery output; charging interface with explosion-proof plug-in design, with power-off interlock function, to prevent the danger of live plug-in; battery compartment will also be equipped with explosion-proof ventilation device, balance the cabin pressure, to avoid problems caused by abnormal pressure.
The use of such equipment also requires a combination of daily inspections, standardized operation, and regular maintenance in order to better play the role of safety protection.
