Railroad Maintenance Vehicles
Many manufacturers of railway maintenance vehicles have chosen lithium batteries to electrify their vehicles, in a sector that is seeking to reduce environmental impact of its vehicles without compromising on safety, flexibility, and high performance.
Flash Battery’s lithium batteries are the ideal solution for manufacturers of railway maintenance platforms as they help to achieve zero emissions and reduced noise pollution goals, while achieving the same performance as traditional models, with reduced operating costs. Thanks to the proprietary BMS, predictive maintenance, and bespoke consultancy, Flash Battery helps to improve efficiency and the safety of track maintenance works.

How Lithium Batteries enhance railway maintenance operations
With Flash Battery’s lithium batteries, the railway maintenance machinery sector is able to respond to its key challenges: zero maintenance, fast charging, and a wide range of operating temperatures. The high degree of customisation and the preparatory Flash Balancing System BMS make Flash Battery’s batteries safe and reliable over time, with a service life that exceeds that of the vehicle itself.
Zero emissions for maximum operating efficiency
The use of Flash Battery lithium batteries helps to eliminate atmospheric and noise pollution, reducing polluting emissions and vehicle noise to zero. This helps to optimise operating cycles and makes it possible to use vehicles even in enclosed indoor areas such as tunnels.
