The multiplexed Vehicle Electrical Center (mVEC) offers economical CAN Network oversight for high power circuits in vehicle power distribution. Manufactured as a hardened and weather tight module, the mVEC is rated at 200 Amps. The mVEC may be configured to provide various OEM circuit protection and switching functions, using industry standard fuses, relays and breakers, with the status and control of each circuit accessible through J1939 CAN open messages. The mVEC is based on proven and patented technology and is suited for the most demanding transportation vehicle applications. High Power: The mVEC uses patented Cooper Bussmann VEC 'power grid' technology, ideal for high current circuits and Sure Power networking electronics. Each mVEC is rated at 200 Amps, with individual outputs rated up to 30A, and a maximum of 32 outputs possible with the mVEC. 12 and 24 volt systems are supported. Rugged: Waterproof to high pressure spraying (IP66 equivalent). The mVEC is designed and manufactured with robust features such as a heavy-duty housing, silicon and Gortex gasketing, and protective conformal coated electronics, to operate in demanding vehicle environments such as those found in construction, agriculture, heavy truck, bus, RV, marine and specialty vehicle markets. Flexible: The mVEC is offered in various standard and customized versions, with custom versions being configured to OEM wiring requirements. The two standard mVEC configurations include the 8-relay 31M-000-1 and the 12-relay 31M-300-0. The mVEC accepts relays, fuses, circuit breakers, resistors, diodes, etc. based on the industry standard 2.8mm footprint. Basic Features: The mVEC:

Acts as a slave module on a J1939/CAN open network, communicating via the vehicle data bus with the master Controller
Functions as a node in an existing vehicle J1939/CAN multiplexing network
Controls relays via direction of J1939 CAN bus
Reports status of relays and fuses each second to the J1939 CAN bus, indicating any blown fuse or failed relay
Is capable of custom designs with differing configurations of relays, fuses, circuit breakers, etc. per customer requirements
