Where Can I Buy Forklift Batteries in Malaysia?

EnergyHub is an industrial battery supplier for motive power and standby power. It serves customers mainly in Malaysia, with branches in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru and Penang, plus a branch in Singapore. Businesses can contact the nearest branch for battery supply and support.

What Is a Motive Power Battery?

A motive power battery, also called a traction battery, powers electric vehicles such as forklifts and electric carts. These batteries are frequently deep cycled and are designed to deliver power over sustained periods. This differs from a car starter battery, which delivers short bursts of power.

Which Forklift Battery Brands Does EnergyHub Carry?

EnergyHub’s motive power partners are TAB, GS Yuasa, Eternity and Powerfit. Working with several established brands lets customers compare options in one place, instead of contacting each manufacturer separately. The EnergyHub team can explain the differences between each range.

TAB Traction Batteries

TAB is a battery specialist based in Slovenia. Its traction range covers both DIN (PzS) and BS (PzB) cells. TAB batteries can be fitted with an air mixing system, which TAB recommends for heavy duty use and opportunity charging, and with an Aquamatic water refilling system. EnergyHub’s TAB partnership focuses on traction batteries.

GS Yuasa Motive Power Batteries

GS Yuasa is a Japanese battery manufacturer that makes traction batteries for forklifts. Its catalogue also lists maintenance tools, including a filler that replenishes water without pulling the battery out of the forklift and a sensor that shows the liquid level. EnergyHub works with GS Yuasa on motive power batteries.

Eternity Motive Power Batteries

Eternity Technologies is based in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, and makes batteries for motive and reserve power. Its flooded motive batteries are available in DIN, BS and BCI dimensions. Its range also includes carbon nano motive batteries aimed at multi-shift, outdoor and cold storage material handling.

Powerfit Batteries

Powerfit is one of EnergyHub’s motive power partners. Contact EnergyHub for the Powerfit models currently available and for advice on which suits your equipment.

Forklift Battery Chargers

EnergyHub supplies chargers alongside its batteries. OSHA advises charging forklift batteries only in a designated charging area. Towards the end of charging, batteries can give off highly explosive hydrogen gas, so the area needs adequate ventilation. OSHA also states that only trained personnel should charge and change forklift batteries.

Battery Water

EnergyHub supplies battery water for flooded lead-acid batteries. After charging, check the water level. If it is below the level indicator, add distilled or deionised water and record it in the service log.

Battery Services

EnergyHub provides battery services for its customers. OSHA notes that a proper battery maintenance programme can increase battery life and help protect employees. Contact your nearest EnergyHub branch in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Penang or Singapore for a quote.
