Vanair ® Released EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION

Vanair ®, a leading provider of Mobile Power Solutions®, is proud to announce the latest addition to our EPEQ™ Electrified Power Equipment® line, EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION. EPEQ™ is a comprehensive, patent-pending, end-to-end system offering 100% of the components needed for a complete green technology system.

The EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION series provides a solution for fleets to automatically turn the vehicle off and still operate their power equipment, such as air compressors, on job sites with zero emissions and significantly reduced noise, heat, weight, equipment maintenance costs, and overall vehicle life-cycle costs.

In the spirit of continuing to provide Clean, Quiet, Power™ to the mobile power workforce, Vanair’s® new EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION kit automatically turns off the vehicle’s engine when it is not in use rather than allowing the engine to idle. This provides several advantages to commercial fleets, including: fuel savings, reduced emissions, noise reduction, maintenance cost reduction, increased battery life, compliance with regulations, equipment monitoring/feedback, and an environmentally friendly solution.

The EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION can be designed to turn the vehicle on/off based on dictated parameters such as run time or battery state of charge using the onboard vehicle battery or to utilize the EPEQ™ ELiMENT™ LiFePO4 auxiliary battery to power: cab heat and air conditioning, emergency lights and strobes, radios, laptops, cameras, and AC electrical equipment.

All EPEQ™ systems are designed to be scalable, allowing for the addition of different power equipment or now, idle mitigation.

The Vanair ® EPEQ™ systems can be paired with our new telematics package. “Adding telematics to the EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION kit brings invaluable asset usage information to fleet managers,” said Chip Jones, Vanair® Strategic Manager for the EPEQ™ Electrified Power Equipment® product group. “Reporting how often an air compressor, inverter, crane, or other component is used will allow fleets to pinpoint where to make fleet investments accurately, and what components can be removed to save space and weight.”

“We are excited to introduce EPEQ™ IDLE MITIGATION, which provides even more options for our customers to operate their equipment with zero emissions and reduced noise, while saving on fuel costs and maintenance,” said Ralph Kokot, Vanair® CEO.
