Aquapro Battery Watering for Forklifts

Battery watering is the process of adding distilled water to the cells of a lead-acid battery to maintain proper electrolyte levels. This is important for the battery’s performance and longevity. Over time, as the battery discharges and charges, the water in the electrolyte solution evaporates. If the water levels become too low, the battery’s performance can be compromised and it may even lead to irreversible damage.

Watering a battery involves removing the vent caps, checking the water levels in each cell, and adding distilled water as needed. It is important to use distilled water because tap water often contains minerals and impurities that can negatively affect the battery’s performance. Additionally, overfilling a battery with water can also be detrimental, so it is important to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and recommendations for proper watering.
