When selecting the appropriate controller for your electric forklifts, it's crucial to consider several factors that ensure
optimal performance and compatibility. Follow these steps to make an informed decision:
1. Determine Motor Type: Controllers are categorized based on the type of motor they work with. First, identify whether your motor is a DC (series-excited / shunt-excited), permanent magnet, or AC motor. Additionally, discern whether your motor is brushed or brushless. Please note that except for AC motors, our products are equipped with brushed controllers.
2. Verify Motor Voltage and Power: Confirm the voltage and power specifications of your motor. It's essential to ascertain whether your motor's power is compatible with the selected controller. If you're unsure about compatibility, don't hesitate to contact our customer service for assistance.
3. Programming Requirements: Our controllers require programming for optimal functionality. Take note that voltage specifications are usually indicated on the controller. It's important to be aware that even though a controller might support a range of voltages, specific programming is required. For instance, if your electric forklift operates on 48V, the controller needs to be programmed accordingly. If you intend to use the controller on a 36V forklift, you must modify the programming to match the 36V voltage before installing it. Furthermore, in the case of AC controllers, providing an electrical schematic is necessary to ensure accurate programming.
Remember that selecting the right controller directly influences the performance and efficiency of your electric forklift. By carefully considering your motor type, voltage, power, and programming requirements, you can make a well-informed choice that aligns with your forklift's specifications.

1. What is a forklift traction motor controller?
* A forklift traction motor controller is an electronic device responsible for regulating the operation of the electric motor that propels the forklift. It manages the motor's speed, torque, and direction, ultimately controlling the movement of the forklift.
2. What types of forklifts can benefit from a traction motor controller?
* Various types of forklifts, including electric forklifts, reach trucks, pallet jacks, and specialized electric vehicles
used for material handling, can benefit from the improved performance and efficiency offered by a traction motor
controller.
3. How does a traction motor controller affect forklift performance?
* A traction motor controller can optimize the forklift's performance by providing smoother acceleration, precise speed
control, increased torque for heavy loads, and improved energy efficiency through intelligent power management.
4. What motor types are compatible with these controllers?
* Traction motor controllers are designed to be compatible with different motor types, including brushed DC motors,
permanent magnet motors, and AC motors, both brushed and brushless.
5. Can a single controller work with various voltage ranges?
* Some controllers can support a range of voltage inputs (e.g., 36V-48V), but specific programming is required to adapt the controller to the appropriate voltage level of the forklift.
6. What are the programming requirements for the controller?
* Controllers often require programming to match the voltage and motor specifications of the forklift. This ensures optimal performance and efficiency. Accurate programming is crucial for proper functioning.
7. Is the controller compatible with both brushed and brushless motors?
* Yes, some controllers are designed to be compatible with both brushed and brushless motors, offering flexibility in motor selection.
8. How can I ensure the controller matches my forklift's specifications?
* To ensure compatibility, you need to verify your forklift's voltage, power rating, and motor type. This information will
help you select a controller that aligns with your forklift's specifications.
9. Do I need to provide an electrical schematic for AC controllers?
* Yes, providing an electrical schematic is necessary when using AC controllers. This schematic helps ensure that the
controller's programming accurately corresponds to the electrical setup of the vehicle.
10. What benefits can I expect from upgrading to a new controller?
* Upgrading to a new controller can lead to improved control over the forklift, increased energy efficiency, smoother
operation, and potentially extended motor lifespan. It can enhance overall performance and productivity.
11. Can I install the controller myself or do I need professional help?
* While some individuals with technical knowledge might be able to install the controller themselves, it's generally
recommended to seek professional assistance to ensure proper installation and programming.
12. What kind of technical support is available after purchasing a controller?
* Hyder offer technical support to assist with installation, programming, troubleshooting, and any questions that arise during the controller's use both online and offline. 24/7 technical support
13. Can I use the controller on different forklift models within my fleet?
* If the controller is programmable and compatible with various motor types and voltages, it might be suitable for different forklift models within the same fleet.
14. How does the controller contribute to overall forklift safety?
* The controller's precise speed control, smoother acceleration, and enhanced maneuverability can contribute to safer
operation in confined spaces and during various tasks.
15. What kind of warranty or quality assurance is provided with the controller?
* Warranties and quality assurance can vary by manufacturer. It's important to inquire about the specific warranty coverage and quality control measures associated with the controller you're considering. Hyder offer 1 year warranty for controller. OEM Model based on custom made.
Also prolonged warranty available if you need.
