With the wide application of new energy material handling equipment in industrial storage scenarios, the stable operation of electric forklifts is closely related to the performance of supporting cooling systems and scientific thermal management schemes. The core components of electric forklifts including power batteries, drive motors and electric control units have strict requirements for working temperature ranges. Reasonable cooling and thermal management arrangements can effectively reduce component loss, avoid unexpected downtime, and maintain stable operating efficiency under different load conditions.
The first part focuses on daily inspection points of the cooling system. Operators need to check the coolant level in the transparent liquid storage tank before starting the machine every shift, confirm that there is no obvious leakage on the surface of the cooling pipes and joints, and gently remove the dust, packaging fragments and other sundries accumulated on the surface of the radiator in time. It is not recommended to replace the coolant with unspecified types of liquid without permission, which may cause corrosion of the internal flow channel and reduce the heat exchange efficiency of the entire system.
The second part introduces the standard operation specifications for thermal management. When the electric forklift works continuously under full load or heavy load for a long time, it is recommended to arrange a short intermittent shutdown for natural heat dissipation appropriately. When the ambient temperature is higher than 35℃, avoid continuous non-stop operation for more than 4 hours. It is not allowed to directly pour low-temperature cold water on the shell of the battery or electric control module for rapid cooling, which will easily cause internal condensation of components and damage the insulation performance of the circuit.
The third part gives reasonable suggestions for regular maintenance. After the electric forklift runs for a specified cycle, the accumulated dust in the cooling air duct should be cleaned, the running state and speed of the cooling fan should be checked, and the detection accuracy of the temperature sensing module should be calibrated regularly to avoid false alarm or missing alarm of temperature data.
