Intelligent power management company Eaton announced it will present its growing portfolio of aftermarket low-voltage solutions for the electric vehicle (EV) market at Automechanika Frankfurt in Germany, September 10th to 14th (Booth #D11, Hall 3).
A few of the products that will be on display are as follows:
Dc/dc converter for stepping down voltage to power accessories and taking power from a 48-volt system and converts it to 24 volts. The bi-directional unit then converts it further to 12 volts for use in low-voltage systems. This equalizer function, in conjunction with the 12-volt battery or a split 24-volt battery system, ensures essential equipment (including antilock brakes and power steering) works in case of a power failure.
Eaton’s eyelets offer hundreds of configurations to support vehicles operating around the world. The eyelets are composed of high-grade materials to make them lightweight, more resistant to severe vibration, and able to deliver a long component service life that meets or exceeds customer requirements.
Stamped battery terminals provide several benefits, including greater energy cycling performance compared to diecast or forged terminals and weight savings in many applications. The stamped battery terminals are customizable and compatible with SAE, DIN, IEC, and JIS battery post configurations.
EVK fuses optimized for high-powered electrified vehicles. The Bussmann series EVK fuses feature ratings of up to 1,000 volts of direct current (Vdc) and up to 600 amps, enabling them to meet the requirements for use in new high-powered EVs. Eaton’s hybrid and EV fuses are designed to manage and protect the charging systems of electric commercial, passenger, and high-performance vehicles, such as sports cars and large sport-utility vehicles.
mVEC high-power circuit management — the multiplexed Vehicle Electrical Center (mVEC) offers economical CAN Network oversight for high-power circuits in vehicle power distribution. The mVEC, rated at 200 amps, can be configured to provide various OEM circuit protection and switching functions, using industry standard fuses, relays and breakers, with the status and control of each circuit accessible through J1939 CAN open messages.
OMNEX remote controls can be used to wirelessly control high-value machinery in harsh environments, including mining, construction, agriculture, locomotive and marine markets, with utmost reliability, precision, and durability.
