Vanner’s (IAP2™) Increased Accessory Power 2™ – Total Accessory Electrification for Allison eGen Flex™

Vanner’s IAP2 advanced technology provides 100% of the accessory electrification for Allison Transmission’s eGen Flex 40/50 and eGen Flex 40/50 Max Electric Hybrid Propulsion Systems by eliminating the belt-driven and hydraulic accessories in the rear bay of the vehicle. All vehicle accessories are powered by the electric hybrid propulsion system and function independently of vehicle operation. This allows for full operation in Zero Emission Zones and bus depots, with geofencing capability up to 10 miles of electric range. The IAP2 provides the highest electrical efficiencies by utilizing the latest Silicon Carbide (SiC) solid-state devices – which yield the lowest energy consumption, longest range, lowest maintenance costs, and much lower CO2 emissions.

An additional cost-savings benefit over the competition is the superior serviceability of IAP2’s modular system. The easy to access components allow for pinpoint troubleshooting and simple replacement.

1. High Voltage Distribution Module (HVDM) Connects eGen Flex to all electrical accessories. Microprocessor controlled.
2. Vanner Exportable Power Inverter (VEPI) Converts 600Vdc to 230Vac 3-Phase for electric A/C and air compressor. 300A rating.
3. Liquid-Cooled Hybrid Beltless Alternator Converts 600Vdc to 28Vdc. Single @ 600A. Silicon Carbide (SiC) solid-state devices with highest efficiency. Dynamic Charging when used with 80-Series Equalizer.
4. 80-Series Equalizer As well as all the benefits of a Vanner Equalizer, this broadcasts State-of-Charge and State-of-Health of the 12/24V batteries so the LCHBA(s) automatically adjust its voltage outputs to optimize battery charging.

COTA and the public give a thumbs up to hybrid buses.

Vanner StartSentry® Ultra Capacitors

The modern transit service is a 24/7 non-stop commuter ballet where timing is everything.

Whether it means getting an entire city to work on time or sending its people out for a night on the town, your buses need to be ready and waiting – not back at the garage tied to a jump cart.

Vanner StartSentry® Ultra Capacitors are the onboard solution to fast and reliable starts. The StartSentry® assists OEM starting battery configurations by providing up to 80kJ of starting power – regardless of battery charge state.
