3.4 Electrical System (battery)
If you do not operate a battery-powered machine, please disregard this section.
Prior to October 2021, battery Multi-Tips were fitted with a single 12V/20Ah VRLA battery.
From 2022, standard Multi-Tips are fitted with two 12V/20Ah GEL batteries connected in series
to output 24VDC, a digital smart charger, and a series-wound 24VDC/800W motor. The
control voltage is 24VDC.
The motor only runs when the RAISE button is pressed – the cradle is lowered by gravity alone.
As a rule, a full charge is sufficient to empty 5 tonnes of material, but this is dependent on the
tipping height and the condition of the batteries.
3.4.1 International conformance
The Multi-Tip onboard charger accepts 85-264VAC 50/60Hz 1-phase input, and connects
using a widely-available IEC C13 power lead (also known as a computer cord). This means
the machine can be charged using regular household power outlets in almost any region.
3.4.2 Voltmeter
The Multi-Tip is fitted with a voltmeter on the control panel, which is used to indicate the level
of charge in the batteries.
When the voltmeter reads less than 24.0V the batteries are flat. The
machine should not be used, and should be placed on charge as soon as possible.
The voltage will fluctuate when the motor is running, so the battery state should be
checked when the machine is at rest.
Operating a machine with a flat battery may trigger the circuit breaker (see §3.4.7 ). If this
is bypassed, the wiring, battery and motor may be damaged by excessive current draw.
3.4.3 Batteries
From 2022, Multi-Tips are fitted with two 12V/20Ah GEL batteries connected in series to deliver
24VDC (nominal) to the motor and control circuits.
The batteries are sealed, deep-cycle, and maintenance-free, with a lifespan of up to five
years. However, battery life is dependent on several factors, including the number of charge
cycles, the average discharge depth, and environmental conditions.
3.4.3.1 Maximising battery life
To maximize the life of the batteries, observe the following rules:
-
Place the batteries on charge each night and over the weekend, even if they are
already fully charged.
-
Do not allow the batteries to remain fully discharged for more than 24 hours.
-
Do not try to operate the machine when the batteries are fully discharged.
The batteries are supplied with a 12- h f c e ’s w , se e f he
warranty on the rest of the machine.
