The Can-PULSE Motive Power Series is available in 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 80 and 120 volt models for use depending on your equipment or vehicle.

Please inquire about customized voltage units if your application is not one of our standard voltages.

Typical uses for the Can-PULSE Motive System

Our Solartech Can-PULSE Motive System is used on the following vehicles/equipment including:

  • material handling such as:
    • forklifts,
    • narrow aisle lifts,
    • scissor lifts,
    • indoor maintenance risers,
  • mining equipment,
  • airline ground support equipment including electric aircraft towing and push back tractors,
  • electric baggage handling equipment including belt loaders and baggage tractors.

Material Handling Equipment

The Can-PULSE Motive System is designed to work with material handling and other equipment to ensure peak battery performance is maintained. It substantially improves the performance of lead-acid batteries and thereby reduces downtime due to maintenance, equipment failure and battery replacement.

The demands on a battery in motive power applications are substantial. Solartech's products remove the sulfation from battery plates, keeping the plates clean and maintaining a strong electrolyte in the battery. The following table compares the long term benefits of using the Motive Power Series on your batteries.

Batteries With and Without Motive Power Compared

Benefit Battery Alone With Motive Power Maintenance
Use your batteries more frequently 8 hours running
8 hours charging
8 hours to cool down
8 hours running
4 - 5 hours charging
1 - 2 hours cool down
Reduced routine maintenance Addition of water to battery every two to four weeks Addition of water to battery on quarterly or semi-annual basis
Full power with no decline in capacity Steady and predictable decline in battery capacity Restoration and maintenance of full power in sulfate weakened batteries after 1 - 2 months of utilization
Prevention of failure of electrical and electric components caused by chronic low voltage Damage to electric motors and related components when batteries with reduced capacity are use to complete jobs. Full power for full shift reduces related component damage

Battery life extension example (click to read the Air Canada testimonial) using Motive Power.
  • tested battery used was at end of its useful life,
  • additional 3 years achieved by oldest Motive powered unit (and still going strong),
  • battery in "like-new" condition after 10 total years in service.
The Can-PULSE Motive system installs easily. It can be mounted on any 12 through 120 volt battery or battery charger.
