MENOMONEE FALLS, WI (June 27, 2023) — RELiON® Battery, a global leader in the development of lithium batteries, today announced the launch of its new InSight® 24V- Low Temperature and 48V-Low Temperature (LT) lithium batteries.
“The 24V-LT and 48V-LT lithium batteries are an excellent addition to our InSight Series line, offering all the advantages of a lithium battery with even more intelligent features built in,” said Eric Lindquist, VP and General Manager, Power Systems at Navico Group. “The newest batteries in our low temperature series, the 24V-LT and 48V-LT can charge in the coldest of climates thanks to its internal heating and monitoring system, offering a seamless charging experience without any additional components.”
Designed to meet the power and energy requirements in material handling, freezer equipment, utility vehicles, automated guided vehicles, solar energy systems and remote monitor sites, the InSight 24V-LT and 48V-LT are GC2 sized drop-in replacement batteries that deliver high-quality performance, power, and precision.
Offering premium cold weather performance, the new batteries are a great solution for those who are still using lead-acid batteries in low-temperature environments. Lithium batteries have limited charging capabilities in temperatures below freezing, however RELiON’s LT models contain a heating element that uniformly heats the cells within the battery to 32 degrees Fahrenheit (five degrees Celsius) so that it can be charged at its full recommended current. These new batteries can safely operate at temperatures as low as negative 4 degrees Fahrenheit (negative 20 degrees Celsius).
Engineered from the ground up by a team of battery experts, InSight Series batteries are drop-in ready and easy to install – no need to modify trays, no complicated connections, and no heavy lifting. Additionally, the new batteries are scalable, so users can provide increased power and energy as needed. From its superior battery design to its one-of-a-kind Battery Management System (BMS) and intuitive software, InSight Series batteries offer exclusive advantages not available in competitor products.
Key features of the 24V-LT and 48V-LT batteries include:
- Easy installation
- Scalable system providing increased power and energy as needed.
- Features an intelligent cooling system that prevents overheating of critical components and extends the life of the battery.
- Robust Battery Management System provides several layers of protection against things like under voltage, over voltage, over current and temperature conditions.
- CANbus connections allow batteries to communicate real-time operating statistics like the voltage, current, state of charge and state of health.
