eNow Inc. introduces Solar Photovol-
taic (PV) panels to operate the Dometic
Blizzard Turbo auxiliary air conditioner,
which the company says is the fi rst solar-
powered auxiliary A/C for the Class 8
sleeper trucks.
With eNow, solar power is captured
and stored in the on-board battery
system and distributed to various truck/
trailer functions. Using solar to power
Dometic Blizzard Turbo auxiliary air
increases the life of the truck's alternator
and auxiliary battery system by reducing
the alternator load at idle and over-the-
road, and charging the battery more
effi ciently at its optimal voltage, the
company says.

Exhaust manifold
BD Diesel has introduced a new exhaust
manifold for ISX engines that works with
BorgWarner S410SX turbos.
According to BD Diesel, the manifold
allows the S410SX turbo to mount in
place of a Holset HE551 air or HE561
electronic turbo. BD says its manifolds
are made from thick durable high-silicon
ductile cast iron and have two equally
placed slip joints that allow for heat
expansion. Plus, BD's manifold pulse
design enhances turbine response for
quicker response, the company says.
