E.02 PERFORMANCE
Ascender Performance
When using the Battery, the Ascender
has a lifting capacity of up to 200 kg
or up to a distance of 200 m.
The distance is dependent on the
lifted load and temperature of the
environment.The optimal operating
temperature range is between 5°C and
35°C. The maximum temperature range
is from -20°C to +40°C; the Battery
performance will be greatly affected
by 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
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 first 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 which
will result in high internal battery
temperatures and therefore in a
reduced lifting distance. In case of
the Battery overheating the BMS will
shut the battery off until the battery has
cooled to operating temperature.
RECOMMENDATION
i
In cold environments, maintain
optimal Battery temperature
and perfomance by keeping the
Battery in the transportation box
as long as possible.
Note
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 figures are
based on new batteries.
