Vanair plans to make the EPEQ Electrified Power Equipment product line available to customers in 2022. EPEQ is a comprehensive, end-to-end system of zero emission and clean, quiet Electrified Power Equipment products. Powered by a line of proprietary ELiMENT Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, the system allows users to turn off the vehicle’s engine and run equipment needed on the jobsite.
EPEQ is a fully self-contained and independent system that can be mounted on, or within, combustion engine vehicles, electric vehicles or even on trailers. On electric vehicles, it can either work with the host vehicle’s batteries or independently. The system provides a solution for customers desiring to operate equipment at the jobsite with zero emissions, significantly reduced noise, heat and weight levels, and to reduce equipment maintenance costs and overall vehicle life-cycle costs. It is also suited for van-type vehicles that do not have a PTO or customers who desire to turn their vehicle engine off.
EPEQ products are powered by a line of proprietary ELiMENT Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries.
Each component in the EPEQ line is designed and optimized to work within a battery-powered system. For example, electric motors are designed to operate more efficiently than standard, untuned electric motors, extending the duration of battery power remaining. The ELiMENT batteries include a Battery Management System (BMS) that has the ability to discharge power while being charged itself.
The Smart Control I/O board has proprietary software technology designed to intelligently monitor and control all the components in the EPEQ system. Each component can communicate signals to and from the board allowing battery power supplied to be adjusted based on various factors such as: temperature, heat buildup, duty cycle, assigned function priorities, and power remaining.
The EPEQ line of proprietary developed products consists of the ELiMENT battery, electric motor-driven air compressors, electric-hydraulic power, AC power inverters, welders, Level 1 ad 2 EV charging, electric-driven underdecks, electric driven abovedecks, alternators/regulators, and DC-DC converters. Depending on the form of power you need, a single function machine can be ordered or in an “ecosystem” product grouping, which combines all the functions needed for your application.
