Conversion to the PowAirBox II made easy - full compatibility guaranteed
Anyone thinking of converting their emergency vehicles from the first generation PowAirBox to the PowAirBox II will be delighted. Because we have made the step to the new system for power and compressed air supply as simple as possible.
During development, great care was taken to ensure that the PowAirBox II remains fully compatible with your vehicle: The installation dimensions are unchanged from the first generation of the PowAirBox, and the installation depth has even been significantly reduced. This means that no changes need to be made to the bodywork for the conversion. The fit of the coupling is also unchanged and fully compatible, so the installation in the appliance housing does not need to be changed. Vehicles with PowAirBox I and PowAirBox II can be connected to the same coupling.
Eight steps to the PowAirBox II:
Remove the six external screws with a hexagon socket (2.5 mm) and carefully pull the first-generation PowAirBox out of the body opening.
Remove the connections in the following order: 230 V plug, terminal cables A to C and finally the compressed air line.
Take the enclosed Y adapter and plug in the terminal cables A and B.
Glue the seal onto the PowAirBox II.
Connect the Y adapter (three-pin) to the A/B connection of the new device.
Connect the start preventer C (two-pin) to the C terminal as usual.
Plug in the 230 V plug and insert the compressed air line into the appropriate socket.
Carefully position the PowAirBox II in the body and insert the screws hand-tight so that the seal is compressed.
And that's it: Your new PowAirBox II is ready to use straightaway.
Upgrade to the PowAirBox II: Simple and efficient
Converting to the PowAirBox II has a number of advantages:
Even greater protection against damage thanks to sensor monitoring with start prevention
A special degree of user-friendliness
Status display of the incoming supply and the charge status of the batteries
Reliable and durable ejection technology without mechanical wear
Optimised protection against damage caused by low voltage and ensuring a constant power supply
Wear-free and efficient power supply thanks to advanced power electronics.
Our detailed instructions and full compatibility with existing systems also ensure that the changeover is smooth and uncomplicated. This means you can rely on your emergency vehicles being ready for use again after just 15 minutes and that they are optimally supplied with power and compressed air.
If you have any remaining doubts, take a look at the conversion video with our development engineer Melf Neimöck. You will see that no prior technical knowledge is required for the conversion.
Explained in three minutes, completed in 15. That's how the conversion works:
