Viatec launched SmartPX, a plug-in, all-electric generator at Work Truck Week 2023.
SmartPX is a true electric genset that uses a rotary generator to produce pure sine-wave 120-volt or 240-volt AC power to run equipment. The generator was piloted on step vans for utility company Duke Energy, where it ran a rooftop HVAC unit, a four-horsepower trash pump, internal and external 120-volt outlets and an external 240-volt outlet, as well as 12-volt power to maintain vehicle batteries.
SmartPX recharges overnight with a standard 120-volt outlet or even more quickly with a Level II EV charger.
