BODAS – Intelligent Electronics for Mobile Hydraulics

The Hardware Modules Robust Controllers for rough mobile use

BODAS controllers are the powerful backbone to the BODAS system. On the one hand they receive and process signals from operator panels and sensors. On the other they calculate and generate the output signals to pumps, motors, valves and auxiliary devices. In the BODAS hardware building set, several robust variations of the controllers and one extension module are available. This makes your machine reliable and efficient.

Our controllers stand up to the mobile environment

Sealed diecast aluminium housing free from potting compound, from Bosch automotive development – proven in vehicle systems a million times over
Robust construction: resistant to salt and dirt, watertight housing and connector with IP 65 (optionally IP 69k) under IEC 60068-2 and EN 60528
High temperature resistance for use in alpine winter or tropical conditions (-40°C to +85°C/ -40°F to 185°F) without reduction in performance
Vibration- and shock-resistant to 25 g in accordance with IEC 60068-2
Interference immunity through high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) to 100 V/m in accordance with the Automotive Directive 95/54/EC and ISO 7637
