Cooling Exhaust
Engine-Generator Set system system

The APU has been developed as a compact, fully integrated unit, as a result of which it
can be installed in vehicles with a relatively small amount of available space. The
sophisticated modular design enables the APU to be fitted in the vehicle in split
configurations where, for example, the generator set is mounted in one location while
the associated peripheral units are mounted next to it.
