Grayson to launch new E-Drive system and electric water pump at Busworld

Bus & Coach
Grayson Thermal Systems will be unveiling two new products for the bus and coach sector next week at Busworld Kortrijk Europe (16-21 October).

Grayson’s stand will feature its lightest ever E-Drive pack and a 24V electric water pump for use on hybrid and electric vehicles.

The E-Drive cooling system on display will be for a Cummins 6.7-litre, 280bhp Euro 6 engine. Twelve months in the making, it has lightweight frames and hinged fan cowl to make it easier to clean the cores.

It also features a high performance tube and fin heat exchanger platform.

“We will also have the first test results of our 24V electric water pump designed for use in hybrid and electric vehicles,” says Matthew Hateley (left), Grayson’s account manager.

“The new pump, controllable via PWM and CAN, offers greater efficiency for flow versus amps than anything currently out there in the marketplace and has an anticipated motor life expectancy of 20,000 hours.”

It can be mounted on the vehicle in any orientation, without affecting performance, he adds.

The unit is in pre-production, with full production due to start early next year.
