• Do not disassemble or modify the Battery in any way. The Battery contains safety and protection electronics, which, if damaged, may cause the
Battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
• Do not expose the Battery to water
Battery Management System (BMS)
The ACX Batteries have built-in safety electronics which constantly monitor and manage the charging levels, temperature and energy output of all the
cells in these batteries. The BMS is designed to shut down the Battery temporarily in case of overheating or overcharging to avoid battery damage and
prevent the Battery from becoming unstable or catching re. In case of a too low charge (deep discharge) or worn out battery cells, the BMS may shut
the Battery down permanently. This is to prevent the Battery becoming unstable and dangerous to the user. When used and charged correctly, the BMS
will increase the safety and service life of the Battery substantially.The BMS cannot protect the Battery from severe misuse as mentioned earlier. Follow
the SKYLOTEC Battery care instructions to enable a long battery life.
WARNING: Do not use any other battery chargers as they can damage the Battery and may create toxic gases which cause a re.
4.1) Ascender Performance
When using the Battery, the Ascender has a lifting capacity of up to 200 kg (440 lb) or up to a distance of 200 m (656 ft).The distance is dependent on
the lifted load and temperature of the environment. The optimal operating temperature range is between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F). The maximum
temperature range is from -10°C (14°F) to 40°C (104°F); the Battery performance will be greatly affected in these extreme conditions. See chart
opposite for detailed information.
Battery Capacity
• low temperatures: The capacity of the Battery is affected at temperatures below 5°C (41°F) which will result in an initial loss of lifting performance
speed) and will affect the lifting distance. The Battery will behave as if it wasn’t fully charged but will warm itself during the rst minutes of operation.
Lifting performance is regained but there will be a loss in distance depending on the temperature of the environment.
• high temperatures: Battery performance will be affected by temperatures over 40°C (104°F) which will result in high internal battery temperatures
and therefore in a reduced lifting distance. In case of the Battery overheating the BMS is designed to shut the Battery off until the Battery has cooled
to operating temperature.
NOTE: In cold environments, maintain optimal Battery temperature and performance by keeping the Battery in the transportation box as long as
possible. Initial lift speed capacity will be limited with a cold Battery. It is only possible to ascend at lower speeds until the Battery warms up and normal
performance can be expected. There is a difference in performance between old and new Batteries, all gures are based on new Batteries.
