DC Bus Acoustic System
As the “thermal management heart” of new energy buses, the DC Bus Acoustic System, driven directly by the vehicle’s high-voltage battery, eliminates reliance on the engine and has become a core system for improving the range, comfort, and reliability of electric buses.
According to information from the 2024 “China Vehicle Thermal Management Technology Annual Conference”—a conference hailed as a trendsetter in the industry—Busclima’s technological innovation is driving the field towards rapid development towards high-efficiency integration and intelligent control.

The performance of the DC Bus Acoustic System is defined by a series of key parameters that directly affect the vehicle’s operational efficiency and passenger experience.
Cooling and Heating Capacity
The system needs to possess powerful cooling/heating capacity (typically 10-40kW) to cope with the challenges of full load and large space.
Advanced systems achieve dual cooling and heating functions through four-way reversing valves and PTC electric heating elements, ensuring comfort in both winter and summer.

Energy Efficiency and Range
Cooling efficiency ratio (COP) is a core indicator.
The system, employing a DC inverter compressor and intelligent stepless frequency conversion control, achieves a cooling energy efficiency ratio (CER) of over 3.4, saving more than 20% energy compared to traditional solutions and significantly extending the bus’s driving range.
Safety and Reliability
To address complex operating conditions such as vehicle vibration and extreme temperatures, the system incorporates multiple electrical protections, including undervoltage, overcurrent, and overload protection.
Stable operation within a wide temperature range of -40℃ to 50℃, while meeting stringent electromagnetic compatibility requirements, has become a standard for high-end products.
Noise Control
Quiet cabin operation is crucial for passenger comfort.
The dual-cylinder compressor balances piston forces, reducing vibration and noise by up to 30%, creating a quiet environment for urban public transportation and other scenarios.
The DC Bus Ac System has evolved from a basic comfort feature to a key intelligent system determining the market acceptance of electric buses.
Its development trajectory clearly points to higher energy efficiency, deeper integration, more intelligent control, and greater environmental friendliness, continuously driving a green revolution in the public transportation sector.
