DewEze Hydraulics introduces a battery-powered electric (BEH) package for medium-duty truck applications.
According to DewEze, the company’s new BEH steel-constructed cabinet houses a 12V motor, two 100/110 amp class batteries and a charge monitoring system to power hydraulic needs. This green technology offers a turnkey solution for no-idling regulations that improve noise reduction, decreases operator fatigue and reduces costs for utility fleet trucks.
“There is a strong desire to completely eliminate engine idling while working,” says Dennis Roberts, Harper Industries, vice president and Hydraulics Sales Manager. “This package was created to meet that demand, given our rich history as the preferred hydraulic provider. DewEze is proud to offer this greener initiative to the work truck industry.”
DewEze says the BEH power house is available in two packages: Lithium Ion at 200 amp hours and AGM at 220 amp hours. The DewEze-designed package (24 x 16.5 x 11.5 in.) conveniently fits into any tail shelf frame rails, the company adds.
