Commercial work trucks have historically used Electric Power Take-Off units (PTOs) to transfer power from the diesel engine and transmissions to operate hydraulic, water, vacuum pumps, pneumatic compressors, etc. The ePTO replaces the traditional mechanical PTO of electric vehicles. ePTOs are a broad term and represent many uses and form factors, which can be confusing, but the benefits include reduced engine downtime, lower carbon emissions and fuel economy.
During this webinar, you will learn more about:
- The various types of ePTOs and the rationale when considering which ePTO should be specified
- Advantages of using ePTOs in vehicles with and without ICE engines
- General power requirements, safety issues, and integration considerations
- Architectural considerations to maximize battery efficiency and energy conservation
