48V 280Ah LITHIUM BATTERY SOLUTION FOR BOOM LIFTS
Replacing lead-acid batteries with Lithium battery solutions tailored to each vehicle type
Boom Lifts are widely used in construction, factories, warehouses, and high-altitude maintenance operations. For 48V electric Boom Lifts, the battery is one of the most critical components determining the equipment's uptime and operational performance.
CHY Battery provides 48V 280Ah LiFePO4 Lithium battery solutions designed according to the actual requirements of each vehicle model, specifically tailored for replacing existing lead-acid battery systems.
1. 48V 280Ah Lithium Battery – A replacement solution for lead-acid batteries
The 48V 280Ah Lithium battery configuration has a nominal voltage of 51.2V and a capacity of 280Ah, equivalent to approximately 14.34 kWh of energy.
The battery is designed to meet the operational requirements of aerial work platforms and industrial equipment using 48V power sources.
Notably, CHY Battery can design the battery dimensions and configuration to match the vehicle's actual battery tray, optimizing installation space and minimizing the need for structural modifications to the equipment.
2. Design tailored to the vehicle's battery tray
One of the key issues when switching from lead-acid to Lithium is dimensions and installation location.
Not all ready-made Lithium battery packs on the market can be installed directly into a Boom Lift.
With CHY Battery, the design process starts with the customer's specific vehicle:
Battery tray survey → Dimension determination → Capacity calculation → Battery pack design → BMS selection → Compatibility testing → Completion and installation.
Information such as:
-
Battery tray dimensions
-
System voltage
-
Current battery capacity
-
Motor power
-
Operating current
-
Existing charger
-
Vehicle model
-
Working conditions and duration
is used to determine the appropriate battery configuration.
3. Advantages of replacing lead-acid batteries with Lithium batteries
⚡ High energy efficiency
LiFePO4 Lithium batteries provide a stable power source during operation, suitable for equipment that requires frequent movement, lifting, and long working hours.
🔋 Large capacity to meet work demands
With a 48V 280Ah configuration, the battery pack holds approximately 14.34 kWh of energy, suitable for developing power solutions for Boom Lifts and corresponding industrial equipment.
🚀 Fast charging support and reduced downtime
Compared to the charging and cooling times required for lead-acid batteries, the Lithium system can be designed to support charging modes tailored to actual operational needs.
This helps businesses optimize equipment utilization time.
💧 No periodic watering required
LiFePO4 batteries do not require watering like lead-acid batteries, thereby reducing routine maintenance and limiting issues related to electrolyte solution.
🛡️ BMS for battery management and protection
The battery pack is equipped with a BMS (Battery Management System) to monitor and manage critical parameters such as:
-
Voltage per cell
-
Total pack voltage
-
Charging current
-
Discharging current
-
Temperature
-
State of Charge (SoC)
-
Over-voltage protection
-
Under-voltage protection
-
Over-current protection
-
Temperature protection
The BMS keeps the battery system operating within set parameters and helps enhance safety during use.
4. More than just a battery replacement – it’s a vehicle-specific solution
CHY Battery aims to provide a complete battery solution, rather than just supplying a battery pack with fixed dimensions.
Each Boom Lift model may have:
-
Different battery trays
-
Different installation spaces
-
Different motor power ratings
-
Different controllers
-
Different chargers
-
Different current requirements
Therefore, the battery configuration must be calculated based on the actual characteristics of the equipment.
CHY Battery can support design from cell configuration, modules, BMS, protection systems, and battery casing to connectors and communication interfaces compatible with the vehicle's system.
5. Reference configuration parameters
| Category | Parameters |

6. From lead-acid to Lithium – CHY Battery accompanies the customer
Switching to a Lithium battery is not just a simple process of removing the old battery and installing a new one.
For the system to operate stably, compatibility must be verified between the battery – BMS – charger – controller – motor – and the vehicle's electrical system.
CHY Battery provides solutions through the following process:
Vehicle survey → Configuration consulting → Battery design → Production → Testing → Installation → Technical support.
The goal is to create a battery pack that fits the tray size, current requirements, and actual operating conditions of each piece of equipment.
The CHY Battery technical team will rely on factual information to advise on the Lithium battery configuration suitable for your vehicle.
