American Battery Solutions Powers Marine Travelift's New Electric Series Boat Hoists

(MENAFN- PR Newswire)

LAKE
ORION,
Mich., Nov. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
American Battery Solutions (ABS) has partnered with
Marine Travelift to design, develop and manufacture the advanced battery technology powering its new Electric Series boat hoists. The 50BFMII (50MT capacity boat hoist) combines the innovation of ABS' electrification and the world-class functionality of Marine Travelift.

"American Battery Solutions is committed to delivering electrification solutions that are not only technologically innovative, but also exceed their expectations for quality, performance and operational efficiency," said Subhash Dhar, Chairman and CEO of ABS. "The launch of Marine Travelift's new E-Series is a testament to the power of collaboration and reflects our shared dedication to innovation and sustainability."

The Marine Travelift E-Series hoist is powered by ABS' 700-volt battery system manufactured and assembled in the U.S., which supplies power to the hoist's hydraulic functions, delivering the optimal performance of traditional hoists without the emissions of a diesel engine.

The battery system powering the E-Series utilizes scalable DC fast-charging interfaces from on-road electric vehicles to safely charge the batteries and a full charge can be accomplished in an 8-hour period with the recommended 30kW high-speed smart charger.

All features available on Marine Travelift's diesel-powered boat hoists are also available in the new E-Series. The first E-Series machine is equipped with options such as electronic all-wheel steering, five-foot top beam extension, work/drive lights and 2-speed hoists to ensure the correct power requirement was chosen to accommodate all option configurations.

The E-Series machines utilize multiple layers of safety features from the moment the machine powered on, including high-voltage junction boxes, isolation monitor, fuses and grounding straps to ensure the operator and batteries are kept safe during every phase of operation. The batteries and electric motor are both regulated by a glycol cooling system to maintain a safe operating temperature in various conditions.
