Innovative solutions for the automotive industry
Together with you, we develop groundbreaking solutions for future heating requirements in the automotive industry. From air and water heating systems to fuel systems such as diesel and AdBlue – you benefit from our many years of expertise in electric heating systems.
As a leading supplier, our products are proven millions of times and set standards in the industry. Our tailor-made products in heated SCR systems not only meet the strict environmental protection standards (Euro-6-plus and Euro-7 standard) but also ensure increased comfort and safety.
Get in touch and work with us to design customized solutions for the future of the passenger car and commercial vehicle industry.
E-mobility - thermal management
Electric vehicles require additional heating systems for heating the interior and conditioning the battery. EICHENAUER offers solutions for this requirement:
- Heating systems based on tubular heating elements or thick film for a wide range of operating voltages and performance
- Lower inrush currents than PTC technology
- Intelligent electronics for control and protection
- Compact design and low weight
E-mobility – sealing systems
In addition to the high-voltage components of the powertrain, battery-electric vehicles have electrical consumers that must be supplied with low voltage. The appropriate electrical feedthroughs must be safely sealed. EICHENAUER sealing systems will soon be used for a premium OEM.
- Reliable protection against dust, dirt, and liquids
- Positioning and flexible support of the connections
- Temperature resistance of sealing components
- Easy assembly
E-mobility – hydrogen tank heating
Hydrogen is often stored under high pressure (700 bar). At low temperatures, the pressure in the tank can drop, which can affect the supply to the fuel cell. With EICHENAUER heating systems, the pressure can be kept stable to ensure a constant supply of hydrogen.
- Many years of experience with customer-specific developments
- Fulfillment of the highest safety requirements
- Enables controlled emptying of the tanks
E-mobility – valve heating fuel cell
When operating a fuel cell, water is produced as a by-product of the electrochemical reaction process. Special water management systems with valve heaters from EICHENAUER ensure the safe removal of water even at temperatures below freezing.
- Reliable operation at low temperatures
- Short reaction and thawing times
- Adaptation developments of our standards for customer-specific solutions
Driver assistance systems – lens hood
Autonomous driving requires clear camera vision through an ice-free and fog-free windshield. EICHENAUER makes this possible with a heated lens hood.
- A built-in, self-regulating PTC heater prevents overheating and fire hazard
- High performance – especially at low temperatures – for instant defrosting
- Easily adaptable to vehicle-specific requirements
- Easy installation in the area of the interior rearview mirror and easy connection to the vehicle electrical system via plug
Cleaning systems – multi-jet nozzle chain
The multi-jet nozzle chain manufactured by EICHENAUER ensures clear vision and a safe driving experience at all speed ranges through excellent cleaning results.
- A modular nozzle system that can be mounted directly on the wiper arm
- Integration of multiple spray nozzles for precise cleaning
- Individual nozzle settings for different vehicle types
- Targeted wetting of the windshield and cleaning of sensors for the optimum operation of driver assistance systems
Intake air duct blow-by
We offer OBD-capable air ducts and blow-by ducts with heaters for your crankcase ventilation in various designs.
- Designed for durability at temperatures of up to 200°C
- Integration of on-board diagnostics as well as pressure and flow measurements
- Adaptation of specific heating elements for heated intake spots
- Compact design for challenging installation spaces
- Patented solution for fast defrosting at low power consumption
- Modular design enables quick prototype and series applications
Selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
Compliance with the stricter emission standards such as the Euro-6d and Euro-7 standard requires effective exhaust treatment technologies.
- Heating of AdBlue-carrying components: Necessary because the aqueous urea solution (AdBlue) freezes from −11°C.
- Spot and surface heating systems: based on intrinsically safe PTC or controlled fixed-resistance technology
- Patented manufacturing process for PTC technology: highly efficient energy transfer into the medium to be heated
- Flexible integration: High degree of design freedom for easy integration into the SCR circuit of the customer
- Experienced in AdBlue-resistant and resistant materials as well as the corresponding test methods
