ePower Mini Flow

The Sunfab ePower Mini Flow, by FTS is a highly compact and lightweight ePTO solution, delivering 5kW to 15kW of power. Designed for less demanding applications, the Mini Flow can be mounted on the chassis, where there is available volume.

It enables pure electric or hybrid operation with both electric and diesel power, offering an efficient solution for applications requiring flexibility, reduced emissions, fuel savings, low operating noise levels, and convenience, making it ideal for small-scale equipment and operations.

Internal batteries (Sunfab ePower Energy Storage), with a high energy density, allow for pure battery operation. The battery capacity is adapted to the need for both peak power and operational autonomy. 
With the Sunfab ePower Mini Flow the drivability of your equipment will be equal or better than with fossil fuel powered solutions thanks to the benefits of electric drive.

The Sunfab ePower Mini Flow comes plug and play ready for easy installation and operation independent of chassis OEM.

Designed to meet market demands, the Sunfab ePower Mini Flow supports custom solutions across various applications with a compact design and high energy density.
