Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) Heating Unit
KUS PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) heaters play a crucial role in the thermal management systems (TMS) of electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), actively contributing to cabin heating and temperature control for batteries and fuel cells.
Cabin Heating
In traditional internal combustion engine vehicles, waste heat is harnessed from the engine to warm the cabin. However, EVs and FCVs produce less waste heat, necessitating an innovative cabin heating approach. PTC heaters provide an efficient solution by generating heat through electrical resistance, swiftly warming the cabin during cold conditions.
Battery/Fuel Cell Heating
Maintaining optimal operating temperatures for batteries in EVs and fuel cells in FCVs is critical for their performance, efficiency, and longevity. PTC heaters excel, efficiently warming these components in cold conditions. This is particularly crucial for batteries, which can experience reduced capacity and potential damage at very low temperatures.
Self-Regulating Technology
The term “positive temperature coefficient” characterizes PTC heaters as their electrical resistance rises with temperature. This intrinsic feature renders PTC heaters self-regulating, reducing power output as they heat up to prevent overheating. This simplifies control systems and enhances vehicle safety, overall efficiency, and TMS reliability.
