1.
Electric Motor
3-phase AC motor is used to turn the high-voltage traction battery energy into movement
that is applied to the transmission for vehicle propulsion.
2.
Motor Controller
The motor control unit provides energy efficient control of the AC motor performing on-
vehicle traction drive duties while monitoring peripheral items and maintaining highest
safety standards.
3.
Traction Battery
Air cooled/heated LiFePo4 battery pack stores the energy necessary to operate the motor.
The traction battery is monitored by the energy management system and automatic cut-
backs and cut-offs are performed if required.
4.
Safety Disconnect
The traction battery is equipped with a manual safety disconnect switch to cut the battery
power in case of an emergency or prior to system maintenance.
5.
Charger Socket
The charger socket is connected to the high-voltage system only when the charger is
connected and a charge cycle is in progress.
6.
12-Volt / 24-Volt Battery
Typical automotive battery is used to operate auxiliary equipment and motor controller
logic circuit. It is charged from the traction battery via a DC-DC converter.
