Customisable Battery And Hydrogen Storage Option

VPT60N - 60KW Powertrain

The VPT60N Powertrain combines the array of Viritech powertrain products and enabling technologies into a complete powertrain solution for OEMs, Tier1’s and Research Bodies allowing for the rapid deployment of hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. The powertrain includes:

  • 60kW Fuel Cell with Balance Of Plant and Boost DC/DC Power Converter.

  • 16kWh 400V Battery Energy Store with Battery Management System And Cooling Components.

  • Combined e-machine, inverter and final drive unit with up to 200KW peak power and 4100Nm Axle Torque

  • 5Kg 350bar Hydrogen Storage System with Pressure Regulation and SAE Compliant Fill System

  • Full Function Vehicle Control Unit with Tri-Volt™ energy management which manages all aspects of the powertrain including HVIL and related safety systems.

Both the battery energy store and hydrogen storage are available in bespoke form factors to aid packaging on vehicle with a standardised option for both available to minimise lead-times. The Powertrain is delivered with all systems integration between powertrain components completed and the VCU preconfigured for system start up within vehicle.

VPT Powertrains Include

  • Full Function Vehicle Control Unit - Pre configued with all fuel cell systems integration complete ready for vehicle integration.

  • Battery System - Complete with BMS and cooling solution with options for LTO or LFP pack chemistry and bespoke sizing for optimimal packaging.

  • Hydrogen Storage - With SAE standard fill control, pressure regulation, vehicle filler and composite overwrapped pressure vessel/s

  • Fuel Cell System - With preconfigured fuel cell ECU, HV junction box and isolation detection.

All VPT powertrains are offered in a none homologated form for prototype and development vehicle use with Viritechs engineering division able to support vehicle integration and development (including HMI and functional safety case) to achieve a fully homologated production end vehicle.
