  2. PowerPlex® Compact Module

    PowerPlex® Compact Module
    The PowerPlex® Compact Module is designed for use in small boats and special vehicles. It can switch a total of ten electrical loads: eight up to 8 A, two up to 10 A. The digital inputs allow the connection of switches, momentary switches or point level indicators. Tank level, temperature and battery voltage monitoring can be achieved by using the three analog inputs. To change the rotational direction of a DC motor, e. g. to control a step tread, two outputs can be used as a half-bridge.
  3. PowerPlex® Digital Switching System

    PowerPlex® Digital Switching System
    E-T-A PowerPlex® - the intelligent Bus System for the Protection and Control of Electrical Installations in recreational and work boats and vehicles. The proven CAN-Technology and the Multiplexing technique allows for easy configuration.

    The power distribution system, with touch screen display, provides: built-in diagnostics, monitoring and redundant mechanisms and programmable overload protection.
  4. PowerPlex® Keypad Power Key Pro

    PowerPlex® Keypad Power Key Pro
    ThePowerPlex® Keypad Power Key Pro provides eight buttons with signals which indicate the current status of the corresponding controlled load. It was created together with Digital Switching Systems LLC (DSS). The keypad is configured into the system like a standard PowerPlex® Module. Thanks to the boot-loader provided by DSS, the keypad runs on the original PowerPlex® firmware.
  5. PowerPlex® Power Module

    PowerPlex® Power Module
    The well-proven PowerPlex® Power Module provides redundant protection for your on-board system. A total of 12 electrical loads per module can be controlled and monitored. The Power Modules incorporate a manual override feature for each 8 A and 25 A output by integrated electro-mechanical mini circuit breakers. This ensures limited operation of the installed system and provides additional security for safety-critical systems.

    The module incorporates redundant protection as a special feature - termed Four Level Protection Concept (FLPC). This concept is based upon four types of overload protection: software-controlled overcurrent protection with current measurement, hardware-controlled safety disconnection, intrinsic protection of power transistors and thermal protective elements with manual switching function.
  6. PowerPlex® Touch PC

    PowerPlex® Touch PC
    The PowerPlex® Touch PC is a high performance 12" Panel PC to control and display the installed system. Thanks to its design and its adjustable brightness, it is possible to install the touch PC in different areas of your boat. The touch PC and its high performance enhance your control systems versatility.
  7. PowerPlex® TouchPC Software

    PowerPlex® TouchPC Software
    The PowerPlex® TouchPC Software provides Graphical User Interfaces for Windows-based Touch PCs. The software is a system extension to easily and conveniently control the electrical systems on board with PowerPlex®. Design and operating concepts are specially adapted to customer needs.

    The PowerPlex® TouchPC Software allows easy and simultaneous switching of electrical loads, displaying sensor data, creating and displaying alarms. Furthermore, the system enhances safety on board, e. g. monitoring the activities of bilge pumps or providing immediate warning when defined tank level limits are exceeded. The GUI can be configured via XML-files. This allows the user to create tailor-made layouts of switches and instruments on up to ten screens, and displaying these on a Touch PC. Additionally, the software provides predefined pages for direct system access (fusebox), displaying the active alarms and the alarm history, and setup options.
  8. PowerPlex Film

    PowerPlex Film
    E-T-A PowerPlex® is a comprehensive system which significantly reduces the need for conventional wiring, and combines reliability and user convenience, in easy-to install modules purpose designed to meet the special requirements of watercraft - today and in the future.

    E-T-A PowerPlex® incorporates high-end power semi-conductors with integral protective elements for switching and protecting electrical loads.
  9. Solid State Remote Power Controller E-1072-220

    Solid State Remote Power Controller E-1072-220
