Sensor-Technik Wiedemann complements their powerMELA ® system landscape with an 80 kW motor-generator. Just like its proven forerunner with 140 kW, it is characterized by an integrated inverter, compact size and ruggedness; essential characteristics for use in mobile machines. With a continuous torque of 250 Nm and a power to weight ratio of 1 kW per kilogram the drive has multiple applications in all areas of off and on-road vehicles. This addition is the next step in building a series of drives and generators ranging in power from 20 to 300 kW. Together with control devices, brake chopper and battery management Sensor-Technik Wiedemann offers the key system components for the electrification and hybridization of vehicles. The power and drive components of powerMELA ® family are distinguished by a double insulated design that reduces the risk to people from electrical current and increases the availability.
New ESX®-IOXp electonic control unit
As the second member of the low-cost control product family, Sensor-Technik Wiedemann is proud to introduce the ESX®-IOXp electronic control unit for mobile applications. Last year saw the introduction of the ESX®-IOX I/O module with CAN bus and CANopen. The ESX®-IOXp is a fully-fledged freely programmable control unit with 2 independent CAN interfaces and an additional RS232 interface. Programming takes place in the widely accepted CoDeSys development environment from 3S-Smart Software Solutions in accordance with the international programming standard IEC 61131-3. This makes possible an easy and efficient familiarization and exceedingly simple and fast realization of control functions. The ESX®-IOXp control unit offers a large number of inputs and outputs inexpensively, and is protected against over-voltage and reversed polarity.
