Battery Power System Overview: 

 

 

 

 

 

The JACO Battery Power Systems are designed specifically for the JACO Mobile Carts.  In many cases this system is 
backward compatible with older model carts that have existing JACO power system.  Contact JACO Customer 
Service for more details. 

JACO offers a 2 different power system options.  The JPS250 is a one battery pack power system and JPS500 

integrates two battery packs for extended run time.  Both options are Lithium Iron Phosphate, also known as 

LiFePO4 or LFP.  

 

The JACO LiFePO4 Battery systems are shipped fully integrated into the Mobile Cart.  They are designed as two 
separate components, connected by a DC cable that runs through the Cart Post.  This cable connects the LiFePO4 
battery packs, located in the Cart Base, to the Electronics Box or Inverter/Charger assembly which is located in 
the Cart Top Assembly. 

Electronics Box input/output connections are show below.  Make sure that you only use JACO approved devices 
and connections with the JACO Battery System

* The Cooling Fan (item #4 above) will power on whenever the unit is plugged in for recharge.  The fan will run 
from a continuous, slow idle speed, to full speed, in order to minimize fan noise in response to rising internal 
temperatures.  The fan will also power on whenever the On/Off AC Outlet Switch (item #2 above) is in the ON 
position regardless of recharging status.
