Motive power is the pulse and muscle of the modern material handling industry. Forklift management across several fleets and at different sites can pose a logistical gauntlet; and your operation needs motive power solutions that go beyond just cooling and charging to help you make smart, informed decisions.
That’s why HAWKER®brings continued innovation to our customers so they can take control of their material handling operations—one accessory at a time.
To secure an advantage in your industry, you need to measure key performance indicators (KPIs) such as product usage hours and health, care and maintenance schedules, product lifespan analytics, Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) predictions, and Return on Investment (ROI) analytics for your forklift power sources. So how can HAWKER® data management devices help?
The HAWKER® Battery BossTM WC (BBWC) monitors your HAWKER® battery based on capacity, temperature, State of Charge (SoC), AH consumption and additional parameters maximizing battery performance and life. The BBWC is Bluetooth enabled to communicate with other HAWKER® data management accessories and chargers such as HawkerNETTM and HAWKER® MOD-ifiTM and can transfer data up to 100ft away. Data can be quickly downloaded with a PC, laptop, or smart device and is easily shared in multiple formats.
Battery BossTM WC Features include:
• Small, slim design making it easy to install and setup
• LCD screen displays critical battery parameters
• Monitors key battery parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, electrolyte levels and battery “balance”
• 2 selectable data modes – cycles, profiles, or events
• CAN bus enabled to work with an CAN network
• Includes a Low Voltage Alarm (LVA)
