PDU for various areas of application

The PDU was developed for use in high-voltage systems in vehicles vehicles and machines. It ensures safety, efficiency and modularity in the electric drive train.

The high-voltage interlock is an important safety element in the PDU, which acts as a protective function and switches off the voltage in the entire circuit if necessary.
