ePOWER Flow Cube
The Sunfab ePower Flow Cube by FTS is a portable, highly efficient standalone ePTO offering power outputs from 30kW to 120kW. Flow Cube is a standalone system that can be powered from most available AC and DC power sources.
Internal batteries (Sunfab ePower Energy Storage), allows for pure battery operation, with battery capacity adapted to the need for both peak power and operational autonomy. With the Sunfab ePower Flow Cube you will no longer be limited to low power, power losses in long electric cables or availability of electric grid outlets. Solutions with higher power needs, without batteries are obsolete. With the Sunfab ePower Flow Cube the drivability of your equipment will be equal or better than with fossil fuel powered solutions thanks to the benefits of electric drive.
Designed to meet market demands, the Sunfab ePower Flow Cube supports custom solutions across various applications with a compact design and high energy density. With options for single or dual hydraulic flow, the Flow Cube delivers flexibility, reduced emissions, fuel savings, and low operating noise.
The Sunfab ePower Flow Cube comes plug and play ready for easy installation and operation independent of chassis OEM. Quick connectors, with low pressure losses, and a smart control system allow for simple and fast connection of any hydraulic equipment. If different types of equipment use the same Flow Cube we can recommend the NFC option that automatically adapts the flow and pressure needed for each specific equipment connected.
