Lithium battery

What are the differences between lead-acid or gel batteries and lithium batteries?

Unlike traditional lead-acid or gel batteries, Li-ion batteries use lithium to store electrical energy . Lithium ions move from the anode to the cathode during charging and discharging, producing an electrical voltage. The electrolytes used in Li-ion batteries are typically lithium salts dissolved in an organic solvent.
Li-Ion batteries have a higher energy density than other types of rechargeable batteries, meaning they can store more energy in a smaller space.
They also have low self-discharge, meaning they can retain their charge for longer periods without discharging.
However, Li-ion batteries require charge and discharge management to prevent overcharging, overheating, and deep discharge, all of which can affect their lifespan and safety. Furthermore, Li-ion batteries can lose their energy storage capacity over time, even when not in use.

New generation Numatic NX1K and NX300 Lithium batteries

Numatic, like Nilfisk and Taski, now equips all its new compact scrubber-dryers and even ride-on scrubber-dryers with Lithium batteries which offer many advantages and thus reduce the handicap of old lead or gel batteries versus cable models.
These new batteries offer fast charging, longer lifespan and flexible power thanks to their modular design.
The NX1K battery, featured on ride-on scrubber dryers, brings the latest lithium technology to the battery-powered scrubber dryer range, offering extended runtime with faster, more flexible charging and long-lasting power while delivering the same professional results and reliability. It boasts a lifespan four times longer than lead-acid batteries. Advanced and safe lithium-phosphate technology provides 4,000 charge cycles.
The NX300 Pro battery delivers professional-grade cordless performance to a versatile and expanding range. Faster, safer, and more convenient, going Pro Cordless boosts productivity while saving you time and money. It recharges to 80% in just one hour and is ready to use with every product in the NX300 series.

What are the storage conditions for my lithium battery?

Lithium batteries are flammable products that must be stored and transported under specific safety conditions.
Thus, a Lithium battery is classified with a UN3480 code which requires transport with ADR classification .
That is why we offer safety cabinets for charging and storing your batteries to prevent any risk of fire spreading.
