As part of a product update, German automotive supplier Webasto has increased the energy capacity of its traction batteries from 35 to 40 kWh. The new Standard Battery Pro 40 is the same size as its predecessor (960 x 687 x 302 mm), allowing it to fit seamlessly into installation spaces that already use the previous Webasto standard battery system.
The Standard Battery Pro 40 is protected by a robust aluminum housing, and can be integrated vertically or horizontally into vehicles to offer manufacturers maximum freedom during installation. The high-voltage battery works with the Webasto eBTM thermal management solution, which keeps traction batteries within the ideal temperature range regardless of the outside temperature. A series of sensors continuously monitor the battery temperature, and fuses and other protective mechanisms take immediate effect in the event of a malfunction.
The new Standard Battery Pro 40 meets the requirements of ECE R100 and R10, the CE specifications for selected mobile machinery, and a range of safety standards, including ISO 6469, ISO 19014 and ISO 26262 (ASIL level C). It is protected against the ingress of dust and water in accordance with IP67.
Webasto develops and produces both the control electronics and the battery at its German sites in Schaidt, Schierling and Stockdorf.
“The electrification of commercial vehicles and machines is progressing at an ever-increasing pace, which also increases the demands on traction batteries. With the Webasto Standard Battery Pro 40, we now offer our customers an even higher energy content in a robust battery pack to provide sufficient reserves for an entire working day,” says Dr. Lena Beckmann, Director of Batteries and Electrical Thermal Management at Webasto.
