Electricity Production While Driving – Meet HGV POWER BOX

Do you need electricity while driving for a temperature control unit, measuring equipment, or such? We have a solution for you. The answer is DYNASET HGV POWER BOX Variable Hydraulic Generator System. This plug-and-play type box has everything you need to produce high-quality electricity with the power of hydraulics even while driving.

Where Is HGV POWER BOX Used?

There are many situations where HGV POWER BOX is a great choice, and here we present two common ones. The first one is the cases where vehicles or machines use electricity while driving. Refrigerated transport vehicles are a perfect example. In their case, the POWER BOX is an ideal choice because it takes its operating power from the vehicle’s engine. The box produces electricity that can be used to run the temperature control unit of the vehicle. So, in other words, it doesn’t have its own engine, which means fewer emissions and fewer maintenance needs compared to traditional solutions. In other words, the HGV POWER BOX is eco-friendlier than a conventional refrigerated transport vehicle, which has a combustion engine-powered refrigeration system.

This Pistor AG’s refrigerated transport vehicle is equipped with HGV POWER BOX. The box can be seen as a blue module between the front and rear wheels. This box is the previous model of the POWER BOX. The box provides electricity to the vehicle’s temperature control unit, so the vehicle doesn’t need a separate engine for it.

The second common situation where POWER BOX is the perfect solution is the cases where you need electricity in a remote location. Good examples are festival trucks, which event organizers use to provide electricity for festivals and events to power up lights, speakers, and any electrical appliance in remote locations. The same idea can be applied to any temporarily constructed happenings: events, carnivals, circuses, sports events, filming days, and even emergencies. You can install the box on vehicles, machines, boats, and vessels.

How About Installation of It?

The installation of it is simple. Firstly, fit the box to the vehicle that has a power take-off. Secondly, attach the hydraulic hoses: pressure, tank, LS-, and drain line. Thirdly, connect a wire harness. The wire harness includes cables for the on/off switch and a cable that provides power to the POWER BOX’s fans. The same harness has an output cable, which a mechanic can lead to an electric center. The center can be in the most suitable spot of the vehicle. From the center, you can lead an electric cable to any electric appliance you need to use, like for the temperature control unit of a refrigerated transportation vehicle.

DYNASET HGV POWER BOX Variable Hydraulic Generator System is an all-in-one unit for high-quality electricity production. The standard models were updated recently. This box is a perfect replacement for a combustion engine of a temperature control unit in refrigerated transport vehicles.

The Newest Updates of POWER BOX

The HGV POWER BOX got a few updates during 2021. Firstly, these new models have IP 54 classification instead of IP 23. Secondly, the protective casing is made of stainless steel, and the frame is made of zinc-coated metal. Thanks to both of these updates, the box is now fully corrosive resistant to meet better the demanding requirements of their usage environments, such as the corrosive effect of road de-icing salt. Thirdly, all the system parts are inside the box while the previous model’s cooler was on top of the box. So, the box is now shaped like a true cuboid which makes it even easier to fit into the vehicle. Lastly, the new models can be connected to the vehicle’s CAN-bus so the box’s information, like system temperature and level of electricity consumption, can be seen on the vehicle’s dashboard.

Time To Abandon Diesel Refrigeration Units Because Of The Emissions

Research has shown that diesel-powered refrigeration units pollute air significantly around the world. That’s why many countries have taken action to cut these emissions with regulations and restrictions of the usage of diesel-powered refrigeration units. That’s one significant reason why HGV Power Box is a good choice because it can replace the refrigeration unit’s own diesel engines in reefer freight. HGV Power Box is powered by the vehicle’s engine so instead of having two combustion engines, or emission sources, you will have only one.
