Battery-Powered Telescopic Crane and Compressor Package Powered by Vanair EPEQ Technology
First introduced at CONEXPO-CON/AGG in Las Vegas last year, the IMT prototype battery-powered telescopic crane and compressor package will be on display during Work Truck Week 2024.
Outfitted on a powerful Dominator I body featuring the IMT CMD.CTRL system, the prototype fully electric 3,200-lb telescopic crane is powered by the Vanair EPEQ ELiMENT battery system and features the EPEQ AIR20 reciprocating compressor. The electric crane can be used even when the operator’s vehicle is off.
“As our customers work to future-proof their vehicles and service fleets in the face of changing industry regulations, we will continue to build on our history of product design driven by customer needs,” said Brownlee. “We are developing future-forward electric solutions that will help our customers navigate the rapidly changing industry.”
IMT® CMD.CTRL™ System
Combining strong, reliable hardware with flexible, intuitive software, the innovative IMT CMD.CTRL system empowers operators to stand back and take control of their crane and body operations remotely on the jobsite.
The IMT CMD.CTRL package comes standard on the Dominator mechanics trucks. Core system features include an advanced Load Moment Indicator (LMI) that provides operators with real-time load and safety information; innovative remote and easy-to-understand diagnostics in simple text form to aid in troubleshooting; and customization options for multiple operations, including flood lights, compartment lights and more. The system can operate a crane, stabilizers, lights, and compressor and auxiliary equipment remotely from the ergonomic wireless controller.
