Designed for battery cooling and A/C, the
EVantage™ Components deliver the reliability and durability
demanded by heavy-duty, high-use Commercial EVs.
RACINE,
Wis., Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Heavy-duty electric vehicles require components that endure
harsh conditions with high vibrations and use. With this in mind,
Modine (NYSE: MOD, "Modine" or the "Company"), a diversified global
leader in thermal management technology and solutions, today
announced the availability of the EVantage Electric Compressor and
Valve Product Lines. As the latest addition to the EVantage product
family, these ready-to-integrate solutions are designed to work
seamlessly in heavy-duty electric vehicles (EVs), optimizing
thermal management for battery and power electronics cooling, as
well as A/C for the passenger cabin. The two EVantage components
introduced today include:
- The EVantage High Voltage (HV) Electric Compressor is an
adaptable and intelligent product that plays a crucial role in the
refrigeration circuit of EVs conditioning the coolant flowing to
the battery pack or the air for the cabin HVAC system. This
lightweight yet robust design ensures consistent performance and
electrical integrity even under harsh conditions.
- The EVantage 3-Way Coolant Valve is a compact and
versatile solution that delivers a consistent coolant flow to vital
components and systems of heavy-duty EVs. The compact and durable
coolant valve is designed to integrate seamlessly. It features
three 28mm ports to efficiently channel coolant to battery packs,
power electronics, motors, and other vehicle sub-systems.
"Our new EVantage Electric Components have been purpose-built
for the harsh, high vibration environments experienced by
Commercial EVs to provide high reliability and high durability
operation," said Gina Maria Bonini, Vice President and General
Manager of Advanced Thermal Systems at Modine. "Our goal was to
design a suite of products to keep Commercial EVs on the road
through long days and extreme conditions. The Modine EVantage
electric components are proven to withstand the most unforgiving
conditions through rigorous testing."
The EVantage compressor is engineered to seamlessly adapt to 12V
and 24V systems, offering a lightweight build with a proprietary
design for mounting, which removes orientation restrictions.
Resistant to dust, dirt, and water intrusion, the compressor
endures heavy vibration and resists corrosion to maintain
electrical integrity in even the harshest environments. The
EVantage 3-Way Coolant Valve thrives in similarly challenging
conditions with its compact, all-in-one design and is also suitable
for 12V and 24V systems. This valve with voltage feedback offers
consistent flow to essential components, making it versatile across
various vehicle platforms, including off-highway machinery, trucks,
bus sectors, and more. Both components are IP67-rated and validated
by the most stringent test standards to ensure durability and
adaptability for heavy-duty EVs.
