EVLINK 24KW Electric Bus High Voltage Water Heater

Product Specification

Introduction

In recent years, with increasingly stringent environmental policies and the continuous development of new energy technologies, battery-swapping heavy trucks have gradually gained a foothold in the heavy truck market due to their unique advantages. Compared to traditional diesel heavy trucks, battery-swapping heavy trucks not only have significant environmental benefits but also offer cost savings in long-term operations for enterprises.

The advantages of battery-swapping heavy trucks are mainly reflected in two aspects. Firstly, from an environmental perspective, battery-swapping heavy trucks can significantly reduce exhaust emissions, contributing positively to air quality improvement. This is especially important today, given the frequent occurrences of heavy pollution weather. Secondly, from an economic perspective, although the initial purchase cost of battery-swapping heavy trucks is higher, their operating costs are lower. Over the long term, the total cost is significantly lower than that of diesel heavy trucks.

EVLINK's PTC heaters play a critical role in battery-swapping heavy trucks. These heaters can provide 15-30kW of heating power in 15kW refrigeration units, enabling battery-swapping heavy trucks to quickly increase the battery temperature even in extremely cold environments.
