More electrical functions, less space, strong cost pressure: The demands placed on the electrical system in utility vehicles are constantly increasing. But one thing always remains the same: No customer is willing to pay more for a 'nicer' electrical system. So, when does an electronic power distribution system make more sense than conventional fuses, circuit breakers and relays?
[...] Read articleThe E-BOX from E-T-A serves as the central control unit for the vehicle electrical system and auxiliary systems. Clear text messages, intuitive operation and the integration of additional functions increase convenience and transparency in the caravan.
Read articleTime is money – this also applies to the final assembly of equipment and machinery. Long wiring times increase production costs making quick solutions extremely attractive. Therefore, the E-T-A 3120-N and 3131 circuit breaker/switch combinations are equipped with suitable connectors, which help facilitate final assembly significantly. They keep you competitive by giving you a [...]
Read articleIn today’s power supply for servers, machines and other technical equipment, AC voltages at typically 230 V or three-phase systems still dominate. This architecture has evolved over time but is gradually reaching its limits. Due to the increasing power demand, new load architectures and the desire to improve efficiency, there is growing interest in DC networks operating at higher [...]
