Espex Batteries’ ORC system is the lead-acid forklift battery that allows for opportunity rapid recharging, adding an unprecedented degree of flexibility and practicality to warehouse operations across the country. Already extensively tested by CEIL in India, the ORC (Opportunity Rapid Charge) concept was soft-launched by Espex back in 2019 and has since undergone rigorous ‘real world’ testing here in the UK in order to prove its performance in a variety of potential warehousing situations.
The results of this lengthy program of intensive product testing show:
-Performance: rapid energy rollover – a single battery covers up to two shifts
-Durability: designed and tested for 1800 cycles as per IEC/BS/EN standard
-Reliability: sustainability of easily-recyclable lead-acid battery system
“This is what our customers really want,” comments Espex Batteries’ Chief Executive, Amit Ghosal. “They want the value pricing, the flexibility and the retained value of lead-acid with the convenience and practicality one usually associates with lithium-ion. Our CEIL ORC does it all, and now we have the data to prove it does it the best.”
Opportunity charging with CEIL ORC means you can charge on the go:
-Consecutive shifts with one battery
-Extended lifespan (up to 3000 shifts with rapid opportunity charges)
-Robust construction
-All with the cost benefits of lead-acid batteries
Ideal for most warehouse applications:
-1800 cycles (tested per IEC/BS/EN standard)
-Extended life expectancy (up to 3000 shifts with rapid opportunity charges)
-Two shifts in a row, with rapid opportunity charging
Robust construction:
-Same thick tube and spine configuration as regular CEIL lead-acid batteries, for enhanced performance without compromising lifespan
-UK-tested performance
-Researched novel active materials enable rapid recharge @ 0.4CA (40A per 100AH) up to 1 hour
-Opportunity charging used to be frowned on; CEIL ORC is flipping the script!
