It pays to safeguard your investment in materials handling equipment (MHE), especially in the current climate, and one way to achieve this is through improved battery management. Hoppecke’s Trak Collect Advanced controller enhances operational safety and promotes increased productivity. The only system to display state of usage as well as state of readiness, Trak Collect Advanced is the most intelligent battery controller on the market today. Purpose-designed for use with lead-acid batteries, Trak Collect Advanced suits a variety of industrial applications and is ideal for use with forklift trucks, special purpose vehicles and cleaning equipment. Permanently affixed, the controller simplifies data evaluation throughout the battery’s life. Easy to install on all PzS and PzB batteries, the unit can also be retro-fitted on site to an existing fleet.
