Curtis Industries Introduces Air Conditioning for Yamaha Drive & Drive 2 with 48V Electric Motor

West Boylston, MA

Curtis Industries, LLC has released its Four Season Climate Control System for Yamaha Drive & Drive 2 48V electric golf cars with a Curtis cab. The unit features fully self-contained refrigeration components pre-charged with R134a refrigerant.

This is a true automotive quality air conditioner that provides cooling comfort, improved air quality and humidity control in any climate. And with the electric motor, the air conditioning can run continually even when the vehicle is stopped.

The system uses standard automotive grade components with a tube and fin evaporator and a bar and plate condenser for automotive grade durability. The refrigerant components are completely contained within the roof-top unit and shipped from the factory fully charged with R134a refrigerant, minimizing installation time and complexity.

The air conditioning unit features a stylish, low-profile design that is incorporated into a replacement roof. The system uses patent-pending “dynamic load control” software to precisely manage the vehicle electrical power.

A custom overhead console features 3-speed fan control, illuminated on/off switch and four adjustable louvers to circulate air throughout the cab. Heaters are not available for the electric version as of now; it is available on the gasoline engine pedal start version.
