Built for Aerial Work Platforms (AWP/MEWP)

The JP-72280AP is a 72V-class LiFePO4 battery system designed for aerial work platforms such as scissor lifts and boom lifts. It delivers high usable energy and strong discharge capability to support frequent lifting, driving, and stop-and-go duty cycles.

Key Benefits for Rental & Job-Site Operations:

  • Stable lifting performance: Reduced voltage drop during heavy lift/drive events.
  • Supports longer operating windows: Fast turnaround charging can help reduce idle time.
  • Reduced routine maintenance: No watering or acid corrosion associated with lead-acid batteries; service requirements depend on the system and operating conditions.
  • Operating considerations: The listed cycle-life specification and reduced routine service needs may support lifecycle planning; actual cost depends on the application.

High Energy in a Compact Steel Enclosure

  • Pack configuration: 23S1P, designed around high-quality LiFePO4 cells for stable performance.
  • Enclosure: 1.5mm cold-rolled steel, robust for industrial use.
  • Size & weight: 950 × 465 × 240 mm, ≤160 kg (±2mm tolerance).

Power Delivery for Lift + Drive

  • Supports high current demand: 220A rated continuous discharge, 450A peak for 60s.
  • Stable charging: 100A continuous charge, CC-CV strategy for consistent charging behavior.
  • Low self-discharge: <2%/month @25°C (storage friendly).

Integration Notes (Replacement or OEM build)

  • High-current discharge connector: 350A Anderson (Red).
  • Charge connector: 50A Anderson (Gray).
  • Communication (GX16-6): Pins 1/2 for Vehicle CAN (H/L), Pins 3/4 for 24V (+/-), Pins 5/6 for Debug CAN (H/L).

Integrated Protections (BMS)

A smart BMS (<3W/45W consumption) is used to protect the battery system and improve reliability. Protection design includes: precise overcharge/over-discharge voltage limits, two-level discharge overcurrent protection (250A/500A), rapid short-circuit cut-off, and wide-range temperature monitoring.

Safety & Reliability Tests

Evaluation items listed for this configuration include thermal shock, high temperature (85°C), external short circuit, vibration, low pressure (altitude 15240m), and drop testing. Confirm applicable test reports for the final project configuration.

AWP Fleet Upgrade FAQs

What is an AWP LiFePO4 battery?
An AWP LiFePO4 battery is a lithium pack for scissor and boom lifts. It provides usable energy of ≥20.6 kWh and can reduce routine maintenance compared with lead-acid systems.
Is TF-72V280AH compatible with my 72V lift?
TF-72V280AH is a 72V-class (73.6V nominal) LiFePO4 pack. To confirm compatibility, share your lift brand/model, current battery dimensions, charger and communication requirements. We can then assess fit against the listed 220A rated discharge and CAN communication.
How do I estimate runtime?
Runtime cannot be determined from energy capacity alone. With 20.6 kWh available, actual runtime depends on load, duty cycle, terrain or slope, temperature and charging plan.
Can I replace lead-acid directly?
It may be used as a replacement when voltage, dimensions, connectors, charger and communication requirements match. Verify charger specifications and mechanical fit before replacement; the listed configuration uses a 100A continuous charge current.
What safety protections are included?
The smart BMS is designed to provide overcharge, short-circuit and temperature protection. Confirm the applicable protection thresholds and validation records for the final configuration.
What documentation may be needed for international shipping?
Documentation requirements depend on the project and destination. Share the destination and shipping requirements so we can confirm the applicable technical and transport documents.
