Products & Services
Discover EKU Power Drives’ intelligent power management, hybrid energy systems, and automation solutions designed to boost efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance equipment performance. Our technologies integrate advanced control logic, real-time data analytics, and smart energy management to support low-carbon, high-reliability operations across demanding industrial environments.
Engine Standby Controller (ESC) | Optimize Efficiency and Reduce Emissions
The ESC is EKU’s intelligent idle management system for heavy-duty mining equipment. It automatically shuts down and restarts engines during idle periods, cutting fuel use, emissions, and maintenance costs while extending engine life. Built for harsh environments, ESC retrofits easily into existing fleets and integrates with the Sophia platform for real-time analytics. ESC supports emissions compliance and helps boost fleet efficiency.
Sophia Platform | Real-Time Data and Predictive Maintenance
Sophia is EKU’s advanced IoT platform for mining operations, turning real-time equipment data into actionable insights. It supports predictive maintenance, emissions tracking, and fleet optimization across rugged sites. Seamlessly integrating with systems like ESC and Vulcan, Sophia helps operators boost performance, safety, and operational efficiency.
PowerFlex e-APU | High-Power Engine Starts and Idle-Free Operation
The PowerFlex 24V 4.0 e-APU is a rugged LTO-based starter and auxiliary power unit for heavy-duty mining equipment. It delivers reliable starts for large diesel and gas engines, supports intensive start-stop cycles, and powers auxiliary loads with the engine off—reducing idle time, fuel use, and emissions. Built for harsh environments, PowerFlex integrates easily into existing fleets and enhances uptime across mining operations.
