The technology giant will bring innovative technologies from Germany to the field of electric vehicles, and is committed to adding a "technology" to China's clean air strategy. Its high-precision sensor provides long-term stable temperature monitoring and measurement, which will provide safer, more reliable and higher-quality products for the Chinese electric vehicle application market.
At the 2019 China (Shanghai) Sensor Technology and Application Exhibition held at the Shanghai International Sourcing Convention and Exhibition Center, Heraeus Advanced Sensor Technology Greater China Sales Leader Dou Yan said: "Heraeus platinum resistance temperature sensors can ensure electric vehicles. Key components of precise temperature control to maximize operating efficiency. We expect that China's electric vehicle growth rate will exceed 60% by the end of 2019. Our technology can help Chinese manufacturing companies accelerate innovation and continue to lead this steady growth. market."
China is accelerating the transition from traditional fuel vehicles to electric vehicles. In 2018, China's electric vehicle sales exceeded 1 million units, accounting for 4.5% of the market share, and became one of the countries with the highest sales volume in the world (Source: Bloomberg New Energy Finance). Through enhanced consumer credit support and the implementation of continuous subsidy policies, China has actively promoted the development of the new energy vehicle industry, and has now established a set of high-quality and efficient development strategies to improve air quality and achieve decarbonization in the automotive industry.
In the electric vehicle industry, technological developments are advancing by leaps and bounds, and they can be described as rapidly changing, and they also have extremely high requirements for the safety and reliability of innovative solutions. Compared with many other electrical applications, automotive components must be able to withstand higher loads for longer periods of time, which is one of the important factors for success in international competition.
In electric vehicles, Heraeus' platinum resistance temperature sensors can make full use of advanced components and effectively expand the operating performance of batteries. These sensors provide excellent long-term stability and reliability over a measurement range of up to 500 ° C, providing accurate, drift-free data monitoring throughout the life cycle.
Heraeus advanced sensor technology supports electric vehicle manufacturers in different applications:
Drive motor: Avoid overheating of the drive motor to cause failure, especially under high load conditions, the temperature detection of the motor is particularly important. Heraeus' platinum resistance temperature sensor can provide a wide range of temperature measurement, linear measurement curve, and extremely low temperature drift, which can ensure the safe and stable long-term operation of the drive motor throughout the life cycle without reducing the output power for operation. Closer to the limit.
Battery: Platinum resistance can be controlled by precise temperature measurement, so that the battery can reduce energy loss under high load conditions, and ensure that the battery has higher safety, better performance and longer service life under high load conditions.
Charging pile: The short-time fast charging needs to continuously pass a large current, which undoubtedly increases the risk of over-temperature of the charging connector. Heraeus platinum resistors not only meet stricter safety requirements, but also further improve by virtue of fast response and high accuracy And improve the charging efficiency of the charging pile.
High-performance power electronics: High-performance power modules are mainly responsible for the energy distribution modules and management modules of electric vehicles. Heraeus' platinum resistance temperature sensors provide additional security for its long-term load operation. These high-temperature operations require manufacturers to choose systems based on new materials or innovative materials such as SIC and GaN.
"Electric vehicle applications have huge market potential. We are committed to making full use of Heraeus' technology leadership position and supporting this booming market with a team of professional engineers to help our customers create value and continue to improve their market competitiveness. Heraeus has more than 20 years of global OEM experience, has a complete automotive TS / IATF 16949 system certification, and a deep technical reserve are all solid foundations to ensure successful cooperation and product innovation.
