POWERBOX-12Power distribution for automotive applicationsOptional backup battery connector for cold start10 output connectors for several customer loadsHigh output current design12 VDC or 24 VDC board supplyIndication of supply voltage levelThe DEWE-POWERBOX-12 enables supply of multiple loads out of the vehicle battery up to a total power consumption of 600 W. As supplying high power loads out of the typical 12 VDC board supply results in high currents (50 A for 600 W at 12 VDC) voltage drop through the supply lines must be considered and thus there is a high flexible 10 mm cable for the main supply line. A simple voltmeter indicates the voltage directly at the terminal board of the POWERBOX-12.For cold start testing an optional backup battery can be attached to the POWERBOX-12 to buffer voltage drops of the vehicle battery.
