The Wrightbus NBFL has an efficient 4-cylinder 
turbo-charged  diesel engine that is used to 
charge the hybrid batteries. The engine 
emission control system utilises a reagent 
(Adblue/Urea) to meet the requirements of 
euro 5 engine emission legislation. 

 

The hybrid batteries power a direct drive 
electric motor into axle. 

 

The air operated braking system is powered 
by means of an electrically driven compressor 
supplying air to reservoirs through an air dryer. 
The air dryer also regulates pressure. Service 
One and Service Two reservoirs each supply a 
separate system for the front and rear brakes. 
The park reservoir supplies the spring 
actuated, air released rear brakes. 
The auxiliary reservoirs supply the air suspension 
and body services such as the doors.   

General 

An electrically driven power steering pump 
is located under the driver, accessible 
through an exterior side access panel. 

The front suspension is an independent 
wishbone system, supported by air springs 
and controlled by hydraulic dampers. 

The rear suspension system consists of a  
drop centre axle located by radius rods and 
supported by air springs and controlled by 
hydraulic dampers. 

The 24 volt multiplex electrical system uses 
a 600 volt DC / DC converter to charge the 
24 volt battery from the 600 volt battery. 

An electronically controlled air suspension system 
is installed which allows a kneeling system to 
operate. 

 

Caution 

It  may  be  an  offence  to  use  a  vehicle 
that does not consume reagent (Urea) 
if it is required for the reduction of pollutant 
emissions. 

The use of a reagent (Urea) is mandatory 
for this vehicle in order to comply with the 
certificate of conformity.
