Proper boxes checked (68001, order sheet) on the Build Specification Sheet (last page of this manual). Page 1. #68003 APU Configuration Manual, Rev 5 11/15/2013. Configuration Manual system Modules The Idle free system contains three basic system Modules: 1. APU. 2. Evaporator 3. Under Bed Module (UBB). APU. The Idle free system 's exterior enclosure(s) are mounted on the truck's frame and are available in two variations: A.

4 APU with Batteries (Page 5). B. HVAC (No batteries) (Page 6). Both enclosure options come with an air conditioner and a coolant heater. The two enclosures differ in that the APU includes AGM. batteries plus a battery separator while the HVAC unit includes the air conditioner and the coolant heater. When an HVAC unit is installed, a separate bank of AGM batteries is needed. The options available for the approved battery enclosures are: 1. Truck battery box (empty, ordered from OEM). 2. Between the Frame Battery Box (#91101), (Page 7). 3. Frame mount Battery Box (91102), (Page 8). Evaporator (Page 9). The Idle free Evaporator will be installed in the truck's interior on a closet shelf or within the closet itself.

5 Under Bed Module, UBB, (Page 9). The Under Bed Module (UBB) is mounted to the floor of the bunk, under the bed. The UBB is the connection point for all IFS Modules and contains a sine wave power inverter as well as a AC to DC power converter (Shore Power). Page 2. #68003 APU Configuration Manual, Rev 5 11/15/2013. APU & HVAC Selection & Frame Rail Mounting Location Two APU (exterior) options are available so as to be able to work around truck frame mounted components that prevent a Standard APU Frame mounting (page 5). The exterior APU is available with or without AGM. batteries located within the APU enclosure. Both APU options include an air conditioner and both options can include a coolant heater.

6 Truck Components that prevent a Standard APU mounting include: 1. Exhaust systems 2. Air Dryers 3. Air Tanks 4. Pumps 5. Oil Tanks Moving truck components that are in the way of mounting a Standard APU may be prevented if an IFS HVAC. unit along with a separate battery box is used. The Footprint or space requirements for a Standard APU are located on Page 5. The Footprint or space requirements for a HVAC unit are located on Page 5 & 6. When selecting the HVAC unit, a separate battery box will need to be used. Refer to pages 7 & 8 to determine what battery box option will work for your application. Truck Frame Obstacles Truck Frame Huck bolts may be present on the Face of the truck's frame, where the Idle free APU is to be located.

7 These Huck bolts may or may not prevent the mounting of the APU. Both frame mounted Idle free APU options contact the truck's frame in the same manner (see below). Huck bolts can be present behind the Standard APU or the HVAC Unit if they do not extend from the truck's frame face more than . Truck frame huck bolts that are present at the location of the APU mounting face can be dealt with by using the Idle free Offset Bracket Kit, see page 15. Back Brackets TOP VIEW.

8 APU & HVAC Frame Rail Placement The Idle free (exterior) APU & HVAC Modules are mounted onto the trucks frame rail. The typical location for these Modules is the passenger side of the truck, behind the fuel tank, in front of the drive wheels. If Space is not available on the passenger side, other frame locations may be available. Typical APU or The HVAC unit has HVAC location the same frame footprint as the APU. Alternative Exterior Mounting Locations APU & HVAC Frame Rail Placement Remove the steps or Volvo Trucks may have move them to the the fuel Tanks mounted passenger side near the drive wheels Potential location Potential location Volvo Trucks may have the fuel Tanks mounted near the drive wheels Truck with Side Fairings Potential location The APU or the HVAC unit typically fit behind the truck's side fairings Page 4.

The IFS Frame mounted APU requires at least 20 inches of open frame rail space along with 24 inches of clearance between the fuel tank and the rear fenders. The Standard APU extends under the frame of the truck 5 inches. IFS Part #91002. APU, No Coolant Heater The APU, no coolant heater, has the air conditioner (only) located on the upper level. This unit uses the same enclosure as Kit #91001. A bank of 4 AGM batteries is located on the lower level of the APU. IFS Part #91003. APU, No Batteries The APU, no batteries, includes an air conditioner and a water heater located on the upper level.

10 This unit does not have AGM batteries in the lower level. This option allows the customer to install their own AGM. batteries or use the lower level of the APU for storage IFS Part #91001. IFS Part #91004 APU, Standard APU, No Heat, No Batteries The APU, no heat, no batteries includes an air conditioner only and an open battery box below. The open area can be used for customer batteries or for storage. Allow at least 22 inches, for the APU, between truck frame mounted components Page 5. #68003 APU Configuration Manual, Rev 5 11/08/2013. HVAC, Standard IFS #91005. HVAC, Standard IFS #91006. HVAC, No Heat The HVAC Standard Unit includes an air conditioner and a water heater. The HVAC, No Heat Unit has an air conditioner only.
