electric construction machinery
Batteries and thermal management solutions from Webasto for the construction sites of the future
E-mobility plays a key role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions locally, not only in private transportation but also on construction sites. The advantages are manifold: electric construction machines support a wide range of construction applications and are designed for low-noise operation. With its scalable standard battery systems, Webasto is already powering a range of special and construction vehicles from well-known manufacturers.
At the same time, the Webasto electric thermal management solutions ensure optimum performance of the traction batteries and comfortable temperatures in the driver's cab - a "winning team" for your electrification projects.
Powerful performance for power-hungry electric vehicles
The Standard Battery Pro 40 is engineered for electric construction machinery and specialty vehicle applications. Up to 18 standard batteries, each with an energy content of 40 kilowatt hours, can be combined to supply even the most power-hungry construction machines with enough energy for an entire working day. A aluminum housing protects the high-voltage battery and meets the highest requirements for safety, availability and stability, even in demanding working environments. With dimensions of 960 x 687 x 302 millimeters and a weight of 297 kilograms, it can be installed both vertically and horizontally, giving system integrators and vehicle manufacturers maximum freedom during installation.
The Standard Battery Pro 40 meets all the necessary standards for construction and special vehicles, including the ECE R100 and R10 approvals as well as the CE specifications for mobile machinery. It also covers a range of safety standards, including ISO 6469, ISO 19014 and ISO 26262 (ASIL level C). The high-voltage battery is protected against the ingress of dust and water on the construction site in accordance with IP67.
Our quality promise: Webasto develops and produces both the control electronics and the battery at its German sites in Schaidt, Schierling and Stockdorf.

Electrical thermal management for man and machine
„The traction battery is at the heart of electric construction machinery, providing the energy needed to power equipment throughout the working day. Reliable thermal management is essential to help keep the battery within its intended operating temperature range during both operation and charging.
With its electrical Battery Thermal Management (eBTM), Webasto offers a compact, scalable plug-and-play solution for regulating battery temperature. It continuously monitors the operating temperature of the traction batteries and balances the heating and cooling circuits to maintain the installed 400- or 800-volt batteries at an optimal temperature of approximately 22°C. Depending on the vehicle type, application and number of batteries installed, multiple units can be combined. The solution dynamically adjusts temperature control to different operating loads and can also condition the batteries during charging, helping to reduce charging time.
The electrical Cabin Thermal Management (eCTM) takes this a step further by combining electric thermal management for the traction batteries with electric climate control solutions for the operator cabin in a modular system.

Optimum climate for driver and battery - at any time of year
The Webasto eCTM is an electric heating and air conditioning solution for construction machinery and vehicles that ensures the right climate for the driver's cab and the traction batteries. The modular system consisting of an electric roof-mounted air conditioning system and the eBTM offers pleasant temperatures in the driver's cab all year round and can be flexibly adapted to the individual heating and cooling requirements of different vehicle types. Thanks to its standardized design, the eCTM can be quickly and easily integrated into new or existing vehicles - ideal for manufacturers both in series production and for retrofitting.
