Vehicle Power Distribution Module

Designed for application in the refuse industry, this custom built Power Distribution Unit controls the entire body of the truck including 16 inputs, and 19 outputs controlling loads ranging from lights to hydraulic valves/pumps. Communicating on the body’s CAN Bus, this unit is the heart of the application.

This rugged Power Distribution Unit is exposed to the extremes of harsh environments: hot, cold, large vibration, and heavy use. The controls are mounted inside a secure, sealed enclosure box, using six Deutsch connectors to preserve IP67 connections to the various inputs and outputs. In addition to the 16 inputs, the outputs range include 3 amp, 5 amp, 10 amp and 15 amps max current. How can your rugged application incorporate Marlin’s custom approach to create just the right solution you need?
