The Anton/Bauer Salt-E Dog is the first sodium battery designed and built for the motion picture and television industry.
Using sodium chemistry, the 9kWh battery delivers consistent, reliable power that is cleaner and more environmentally safe than fossil fuel or lithium generators. With no noise, and no pollution, Salt-E Dog helps productions to deliver on net-zero sustainability pledges and maintain quality standards without compromise.
For location work or any production that demands emission-free and practically noiseless power, Salt-E Dog has you covered. The sodium-based power source is the perfect way to create a healthier and more pleasant environment for your cast and crew.
Unlike gas generators, Salt-E Dog produces no harmful CO2 or NOx emissions, And, with no pollution comes greater location flexibility for your production.
Near silent operation means a better working environment and no time consuming ADR work. Plus, its quiet operation allows it to be placed closer to your set, lights, and other equipment.
With its IP55 rating, Salt-E Dog can handle any kind of weather. It matches the IP rating of most fuel generators and beats most ‘lithium’ solutions to provide reliable weatherproof power.
The perfect off-the-grid or on-the-go power source for your production, thanks to its robust construction and portable design. Recharge from a range of convenient sources, including grid power, solar PV, and Level 2 EV charge points.
A pure sine wave output means no risk of dirty power causing damage to sensitive equipment. Its clean and stable output matches grid power so you can power your set with confidence, capturing every shot without a hitch.
Safety is key, and the sodium cell technology in Salt-E Dog delivers a safer and more secure production experience. Safely place the unit near equipment, in vehicles, or even with talent with no risk of thermal runaway or fire. Eliminate the need for fire marshals on set, water trucks, and lower insurance premiums.
Take charge and plan power usage with the 7” display. The touch screen shows real-time capacity, time-to-empty or time to full charge in hours and minutes, along with access to system settings.
With 9000Wh of safe and sustainable sodium nickel cells, Salt-E Dog delivers up to 6,000W of pure sine wave power to run your entire production off-the-grid wherever you need it.
