Electric Power Take-Off (ePTO)

m2 dm 15.00.005

The Electric Power Take-Off (ePTO) option provides standard hydraulic functions without continuous diesel engine operation. The PTO drive power is provided by the hybrid motor and hybrid batteries. When the hybrid batteries deplete, the diesel engine automatically starts to recharge them and provide PTO drive power. Once the batteries are fully charged, the engine shuts down automatically. Vehicles with the ePTO option are designed with a safety switch to ensure the diesel engine does not start when the hood is open.

A DC/DC converter is required for ePTO applications to convert high-voltage DC to 12-volt DC.

Note: To maintain a power supply from the vehicle's low-voltage batteries, the alternator charges them when the vehicle is being driven.
