Yazaki Battery Mounted Power Management Module Named A 2020 Automotive News PACE Award Finalist

 CANTON, Mich. – April 28, 2020 – Yazaki Corporation’s Battery Mounted Power Management Module (BMPMM) has been named a finalist of the 2020 Automotive News Premier Automotive Suppliers’ Contribution to Excellence (PACE) Award due to its innovative battery mounted design, visual over current circuit protection, and flexible power distribution benefits. The honor was announced during the 26th annual PACE Awards virtual ceremony on April 28, 2020. The prestigious awards are recognized globally as industry benchmarks for innovation. “We are grateful Automotive News found a new and different way to host the PACE Awards celebration,” said Yazaki North America Vice President, Engineering, David Scheffler. “It is truly humbling to be a part of our industry’s best problem solvers. Especially during this global crisis that is testing our ability to innovate as never before. We were pleased to be a finalist and congratulate the winners.” Yazaki’s compact battery module is a circuit protection and power distribution unit that is directly attached to the vehicle battery for maximum safety and design flexibility. Its innovative design is more than 60 percent smaller and 50 percent lighter on average than comparable products on the market, offering a cost effectiveness advantage. The innovative module offers: Vehicle primary power wire protection to improve reliability and safety An enhanced power distribution system designed to improve cost, functionality, and enabling the use of standard components Compact design addressing minimal packaging space around the battery Improved ease of installation during vehicle assembly and servicing The module integrates the power distribution and wire protection functions to provide greater flexibility for wire harness packaging and routing design variations. Yazaki designed the battery module to address the increasing number of electrical components driving the need for more power to safely flow through the vehicle. “Automotive electrical systems are undergoing constant change as the technology deployed in new vehicles continues to evolve,” said Scheffler. “To support design flexibility for our customers, we developed the BMPMM to attach directly to the vehicle’s 12-volt battery and provide power distribution and circuit protection for high power vehicle features. Relocating circuit protection from Power Distribution Center (PDC) to BMPMM realized as much as a 51 percent reduction in PDC components for some customers.” The module’s integrated triple-protection fuse elements protect electrical systems from multiple circuit failure modes - normal overcurrent, large inrush current, or direct circuit (short-to-ground). The type of overcurrent event can be determined by visually inspecting the melting position on the fuse element. To improve fuse performance, typical fuse element crimping methods have been replaced by a new stitching process for more consistent fuse performance. For the past quarter of a century, the PACE Awards have honored superior innovation, technological advancement and business performance among automotive suppliers. This award, judged by an independent panel of technologists, is recognized around the world as the industry benchmark for innovation.     ### About Yazaki Yazaki Corporation is a global leader in the research, development, and delivery of vehicle power, data, and display for automotive applications.

Yazaki Recognized As Inaugural Automotive News PACEpilot Honoree For Arc Suppression Device

CANTON, Mich. – July 2020 – Yazaki North America, Inc. has been recognized as a 2020 Automotive News PACEpilot (Premier Automotive Suppliers’ Contribution to Excellence) honoree because of its work on the innovative Yazaki arc suppression device. The honor was announced during the inaugural PACEpilot event on June 25, 2020. The award recognizes pre-commercialized innovations from automotive suppliers that are tied to safety, fuel efficiency, vehicle electrification and driving assist/driving automation and are projected to impact the automotive market. The Yazaki arc suppression device improves the overall reliability of hybrid and battery electric vehicles and protects higher voltage power distribution systems and components from damage due to arcing. The device quickly detects an electrical arc and suppresses it in less than 10 microseconds, protecting the circuit from damage. The arc suppression device is designed to protect 48V DC and higher voltage systems, which are most susceptible to damage as a result of arcing. “The potential for a damaging arcing event during power switching or disconnects is a serious concern in the medium and high voltage DC circuits of modern vehicle electrical systems,” said Michael Boyd, Sr. Manager for Yazaki. “This arcing can create dangerous vehicle issues ranging from damage to wires and connectors to potential electrical system fires. The Yazaki arc suppression device is a fast-acting, cost-effective solution that helps create a safe and reliable system.” The arc suppression device can also improve the reliability and performance of high voltage switches and mechanical relays by eliminating arcing that can damage electrical contacts over time. Yazaki’s internal tests indicate that the cycle life expectancy of high voltage electrical relays and contactors can be extended as much as 10 times longer when protected by this arc suppression device. For 26 years, Automotive News’ PACE Awards have awarded superior innovation, technological advancement and business performance among automotive suppliers. New this year, the PACEpilot program recognizes traditional and non-traditional automotive suppliers with products in a working demonstration phase that have not yet hit the market.   ###   About Yazaki Yazaki Corporation is a global leader in the research, development, and delivery of vehicle power, data, and display for automotive applications.
