MoTeC offers power distribution modules

MoTeC has just released the first in its range of power distribution modules, the PDM32, weighing in at only 405 grams (0.89 pounds).
 
This compact, lightweight device replaces conventional relays, fuses, timers and circuit breakers to simplify wiring, reduce weight and maximise control over racecar power management.
 
The PDM32 supplies electronically switched power to various electrical systems in the vehicle, including motors, lights, solenoids and electronic devices such as elecronic control units (ECUs) and data equipment.
 
It allows for a large start-up current and provides multiple conditions for each output, making complex switching operations possible. Full diagnostic information, including output current and error status, can be monitored on a PC or transmitted to a display or logging device.
 
It provides 32 outputs, each over-current protected and controlled via a combination of switch inputs, CAN messages and logic functions. In addition to performing simple functions such as flashing indicator lights and controlling pumps and fans, the logic functions can be used to selectively turn off systems during low battery voltage or engine starting to reduce drain on the battery.
 
A smaller version with 16 outputs, the PDM16, is coming soon.
