Long service
December 1st 2009 Exide Technologies recently received
a request from a Mauritius
engineering company wanting a price
for a replacement battery on a
customer's Toyota forklift truck –
whose original battery was 15 years
old! Unsurprisingly, the customer was
keen to replace the battery with one
of the same type from the same
manufacturer.
Jean-Marie Nuteau of Ray &
Lenferna,Mauritius comments: "The
customer has stuck to a regular
maintenance schedule and operated
the truck, battery and charger within
good-practice guidelines, which goes
to show what can be achieved with
the right product. Fifteen years service
is a remarkable achievement,
especially when you consider the
battery has been operated in a
tropical climate." More articles from GNB Industrial Power: |
