Life Racing PDUX6B (48v / 350A) Power Distributor Unit

£6,174.00 (+VAT)

The PDUX6B represents the latest advancements in microprocessor-controlled power distribution systems. It comes equipped with an impressive 64 programmable outputs in total. The PDUX range offers advanced features such as soft-starting power demanding components, Custom CAN configuration and real number (floating point) manipulation and comparison. Regarding power saving, the PDUX range has the ability to sleep and wake via CAN bus messaging or by using hardware pins including the ability to wake/sleep upon the triggering of certain user-specified sensor inputs.

For full specification of this PDU, please see the description below the PDU configuration options.

Description

The Life Racing PDUX6B (48v / 350A) comes equipped with an impressive 64 programmable outputs in total, including 10 extremely capable multifunction outputs which can be defined by the user to operate in either discreet high-side, low-side switching, high-side PWM, Half or Full bridge operation. These flexible outputs, as well as the PDU’s 16 input channels and additional 4 lowside PWMs, can be used to expand and enhance the I/O configuration of any Life Racing ECU. A feature and build-time-choice option are available for an internal IMU and two-wire wheel speed interface respectively.
