Webasto has increased the energy content of its traction batteries from 35 kWh to 40 kWh. Along with flexible installation options, this makes the Standard Battery Pro 40 an ideal solution for electrically powered commercial vehicles.

As many as 18 Pro 40 batteries with a total energy content of up to 720 kWh provide sufficient power to drive vehicles in the range of 400 V or 800 V.

The Standard Battery Pro 40 is protected by a robust aluminum housing. In a space measuring 960 x 687 x 302 mm, it meets the highest requirements in terms of safety, availability and stability. The system weighs 297 kg, and it can be integrated vertically or horizontally.

Webasto has ensured interaction with the eBTM thermal management solution, which keeps traction batteries within the ideal temperature range regardless of external heat. The battery is also protected against the ingress of dust and water in accordance with IP67.

“The electrification of commercial vehicles and machines is progressing at an ever-increasing pace, which also increases the demand 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, batteries and electrical thermal management, at Webasto.
