REFUELING STATIONS
design of refueling stations
We design your refueling station in the loading bays
Omicron refilling stations are custom-designed and tailored to specific spaces so that they integrate seamlessly with existing work processes, speeding up the loading and unloading operations involved in refilling and reducing vehicle downtime.
Our product range includes refueling stations that are ideal for maintaining batteries in large fleets of electric forklifts or for maintaining batteries on individual vehicles.
How are Omicron refueling stations structured?
Omicron refilling stations are semi-automatic systems designed to solve the problem of supplying water for refilling in the loading room. They feature several water collection points, facilitating and speeding up refilling operations at the end of trolley loading.
They are custom-designed and customized to suit any environment and different refilling needs, and can operate by gravity or with a pressure tank to distribute water.
They are generally formed of
- A PP tank with a capacity of 100, 300, 500, or 1000 liters with an electronic float that stops the flow of water from the demineralizer when the tank is full.
- A support bracket for the powder-coated iron cistern for wall or floor installation.
- A PVC pipe drainage system with a final purge kit to remove excess air.
- Multiple water outlets equipped with pressure stabilizers, flow indicators, and male/female quick couplings that allow for a constant flow of water to the coil, ensuring the correct level.
The water points can be made automatic, eliminating the need for operator intervention, by equipping them with a solenoid valve controlled by a timed relay.
Where possible, they can be connected directly to the battery charger.
To prevent frost forming in the cistern and pipes, a version with a thermostat is available which maintains the water temperature in the tank at 10°C, along with a heating cable to wrap around exposed pipes to prevent them from freezing.

Forklift battery refilling station: what you need to know.
How do you install a refueling station for forklift batteries?
The installation of a refilling station for forklift batteries requires a careful and well-coordinated process. In this context, it is the responsibility of Omicron staff to take care of every stage of the process, ensuring correct execution and optimal operation of the station.
-
Location identification: Omicron personnel must select the most suitable location for installing the refill station, ensuring accessibility, ventilation, and adequate ground preparation.
-
Station assembly: The Omicron team assembles the refill station, carefully following the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure correct execution.
-
Electrical and hydraulic connections: Omicron personnel ensure that all electrical and hydraulic connections are made accurately and safely, guaranteeing the correct operation of the refilling station.
-
Testing and verification: After installation, a series of tests are performed to verify the operation of the refueling station and identify any problems or malfunctions.
How often do you need to top up the batteries in a forklift truck?
The frequency of refilling depends on the conditions of use of the batteries, but it is usually recommended to check and refill the batteries regularly, for example every 1-3 months.
How can I tell if my forklift battery refilling station is working properly?
First and foremost, it is essential to verify the compatibility of the system with the type and model of your current batteries. In addition, you need to assess the space available around the batteries to ensure safe and accessible installation. Make sure you have adequate access to the battery cell caps to connect the system tubes correctly.
Can I install a refueling station on an existing forklift battery?
Yes, many refill stations can be installed on existing batteries. However, it is important to ensure that the system is compatible with the type and model of batteries in use and to make sure you have adequate access to the battery cell caps in order to connect the system tubes correctly.
