Ecobat Battery - the complete floor cleaning supply partner
Endorsing its position as a versatile service and supply partner for the floor cleaning sector, Ecobat Battery, said to be the UK's largest battery distributor, is highlighting the fact that alongside its comprehensive range of six and 12-volt batteries, it has all the 2-volt cell options covered for those businesses using heavy duty machines.
In addition to supplying a broad range of suitable replacement products, which includes battery rental from brands including E-Drive, Rolls Battery, Sonnenschein and US Battery, as well as chargers from Fronius and SPE, Ecobat Battery can provide invaluable support to keep these machines in good working order, via its team of service engineers.
Services offered include battery inspection, watering and surface cleaning, along with bolt-on 2-volt fitment and cell repair, plus stripping, cleaning and refitment. On the charging side, installation of a suitable system or battery filling station are among the many other areas that the company's knowledge and experience can bring into play. Another factor that provides customers with peace of mind, is the fact that Ecobat Battery's engineers are also fully trained when it comes to lithium technology, covering both the batteries themselves and the charging regimes that need to be followed.
With the experience inherent within a specialist business that has been trading for more than 70 years, along with the high quality training each engineer undertakes, the company is also able to provide customers with an economical breakdown repair or short term resolution, to ensure they have a first fix solution that means that equipment downtime is reduced to an absolute minimum.
Ecobat Battery's in depth knowledge is also invaluable when it comes to the important factors that require consideration when choosing the most appropriate replacement battery.
These include technical matters such as battery life and runtime, fast charging capabilities to maximise equipment availability, energy density and weight, compatibility with various floor cleaning machines (e.g., scrubbers, sweepers), safety features like built-in protections against overcharging, overheating and short circuits and maintenance requirements - for example any preference for maintenance-free options like lithium over lead-acid batteries.
Operational factors, including durability and reliability, also come into play, as do the ease of retrofitting into existing equipment and battery monitoring and diagnostics.
Naturally, business related matters such as cost and return on investment, warranty and support, and sustainability must also come under the microscope.
As is evident, Ecobat Battery has the necessary credentials to underline its position as a leading supply partner to the floor cleaning industry.
