EFT-HCU-1x
The EFT-HCU-1x (Hybrid Control Unit) is designed as a central control unit for any hybrid electric powertrain. The main function is to supervise and control the ICE/Turbine, the Alternator, Power Electronics and Batteries.
Its modular power and control interface allows the EFT-HCU-1x to be integrated with ease into any hybrid system.
