Power Distribution Unit

PDU from durot electric for reliable and safe power distribution in vehicles and machines.

For safe and efficient power distribution in high-voltage vehicles with a wide range of functions. Our PDUs can be used for almost any transport and machine area – configurable with a DC bus controller for functions such as current and temperature measurement, pre-charging and discharging functions and diagnostic services in accordance with industry standards.

01.

Reliable and safe power distribution

The PDU manages the power distribution from the battery to the desired components in the vehicle or machine.

02.

Compatible with various software and hardware elements

A wide range of hardware and software is compatible with the PDU.

03.

Completely customizable

All functions and requirements can be individually configured. Power, size, number of inputs and outputs and much more.

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.
