Stellar's Hybrid Power Source (HPS) is a self-contained hydraulic power source that utilizes automotive-grade lithium-ion technology to provide a system that is low-voltage, anti-idle compliant, and quiet during operation.
The HPS allows companies to reduce their carbon footprint by operating hydraulic equipment without the use of the chassis engine. Using Volta lithium-ion technology, the HPS offers power for hydraulic equipment operation, up to eight hours of run time and more than 10 years of life, the company says. It has 13.5 kWh of output and multiple options to keep the unit charged. It comes equipped with an integrated 48V chassis alternator, allowing the system to be charged from the chassis on site or while driving to the next job site. Shore power charging is also an option with a standard 120V, 15-amp connection to enable the unit to slow charge while parked for the night or when chassis engine charging is unavailable.
