1. An electrically driven dump system, comprising:
a DC-to-DC voltage converter configured to receive input DC voltage from a battery bank at a first voltage and output DC voltage at a second, increased voltage;
an energy storage element that receives the increased DC voltage from the DC-to-DC voltage converter;
a controller that receives DC power from the energy storage element and converts the DC power into AC power, the controller coupled to an electronic control module, a load switch manual override, an unload switch manual override, a temperature sensor, and a speed sensor; and
a motor that receives AC power from the controller, the motor being mechanically connectable to a hydraulic pump, the hydraulic pump connectable to a hydraulic tank connectable to a dump system, such that operating the hydraulic pump actuates the dump system when the hydraulic pump is connected to the hydraulic tank and the hydraulic tank is connected to the dump system;
an unload safety pressure sensor and switch, a remote control module, and a wireless control module all coupled to the electronic control module;
wherein the controller may selectively activate or deactivate the motor based upon data received from the speed sensor, the temperature sensor, the load switch manual override, the unload switch manual override, or the electronic control module, the electronic control module processing information received from the unload safety pressure sensor and switch, the remote control module, and the wireless control module.
