HAWKER
® continues its expansion of the modular high-frequency charger line with the
PTO™ MOD3 conventional/opportunity charger. The modular design of the PTO™ MOD3
charger provides flexible, scalable, and redundant power to meet the growing demands
faced by material handling customers.
ECONOMICAL OPPORTUNITY CHARGER
The Opportunity charge profile allows operators to plug in
for a quick charge during break times.
In opportunity mode, the PTO™ MOD3 charger has a start
rate of up to 25% of the battery’s rated capacity, or the
maximum output of the charger (whichever is less), to
"boost" the battery through the day. These "boosts" allow
the truck to run longer between full charges. The battery
is then completely charged daily via the charger’s constant
current finish charge to bring the battery back to a full state
of charge.
Why opportunity charge?
Boosting the battery throughout the day allows it to run
longer between full charges
Elimination of battery changing
Reduction of fleet inventory and equipment
Improved safety levels due to not changing out batteries
Improved use of floor space by eliminating dedicated
charging areas
Elimination of excess batteries and change-out equipment

charging. And it’s easy to quickly switch out individual
module units.
