How is Caterpillars MorElectric system different from what is currently available in the marketplace?
Four differentiating features come to mind. • The MorElectric system has been designed specifically for heavy-duty applications to address the operating environment and life expectations this market needs. • The MorElectric is based on an integrated design approach that avoids redundant hardware for reduced cost and weight over the design approach of most Idle Reduction solutions used today. Think about an RV that has two A/C systems. Typically, the RV has one A/C system built into the dashboard and a second redundant A/C system built into the roof. One A/C system for when the vehicle is traveling on-road, while the second A/C system is used when parked. Caterpillar is working with vehicle OEMs on designs that only require one A/C system that is used both while on-road and while parked. • The MorElectric system offers on-highway fuel savings. • The APU has a variable speed feature to provide lower fuel consumption, reduced emissions, and noise/vibration, and significantly longer life t
