PRODUCTS & SERVICES EZ DISSAN provides tools necessary to deploy critical disinfection programs EZ DISSAN has partnered with Victory Innovations to become the preferred distributor for the ground passenger transportation industry using their cordless electrostatic handheld sprayers to achieve maximum disinfection and sanitization. These 2020 Sanitary Maintenance Distributor Award Winning sprayers are easily deployed and operated by transportation professionals in many applications including motorcoach, transit bus, subway train, light rail, airport transfer, transit stations, maintenance facilities, and administrative offices. Using bleach wipes or simple power washing is simply not enough these days. Electrostatic disinfecting is quickly becoming the preferred method to ensure safety. Delta Airlines and Marriott Hotels and Resorts are using cordless handheld electrostatic sprayers to reach all the small nooks and crannies that are normally hard to reach. San Francisco Muni and AC Transit are also using electrostatic sprayer technology to disinfect their buses. EZ DISSAN is in final development of a mobile application that will track the date, time and location of every vehicle disinfection process, take driver and passenger temperatures as required and provide this data to transit managers and motorcoach operators. The mobile app also includes Department of Defense Carrier Passenger Service reporting functionality. EZ DISSAN Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania WAVE provides a glimpse into a visionary future of electric vehicles with unlimited range Wireless Advanced Vehicle Electrification (WAVE), a leading innovator in heavy-duty vehicle wireless charging, helps operators of all-electric bus fleets to successfully meet the challenges associated with vehicle range. Today, emissions from diesel-powered vehicles have become a worldwide concern. The demand to reduce emissions has driven an increased interest in vehicles powered by alternative propulsion. Electric buses are the popular option for cities as public transportation plays an integral role in environmental sustainability. An electric bus operation improves air quality, noise reduction, and total cost of ownership is far less than polluting alternatives. Through experience and the accumulation of data, WAVE has found its systems capable of maintaining electric bus operations without making a single change to existing bus schedules. Daily routes, totaling more than 200 miles, provide ample opportunities for a five-minute charge at a bus transfer center. In-route charging allows electric vehicles to extend their operational range and increase overall battery life. WAVE’s wireless chargers allow fleets to operate in a charge-neutral scenario, which means the WAVE’s wireless charger puts back as much energy as it was consumed on the previous route segment. As a result, the buses never lose their charge. Its charging technology alleviates common concerns about electric vehicle ownership, including safety, convenience, and range anxiety.
