Automotive Industry

EV/PHV

Many power and automotive relays are used in EV/PHV.
For example, control of fuel injection pump motors, control of head lamps and blinkers, windshield wipers and power windows, connection of power supply line between a hybrid vehicle external charger disconnect and its battery system. Major selection criteria is the rated current.

Gasoline vehicles

Relays used in automotive electronics must be highly reliable and meet IATF16949 requirements.
Major selection criteria is the rated current. Noise level (quietness) is an important selection criteria for high-end cars.

eCall System

The eCall system is designed to improve emergency response times following a traffic accident. The Emergency Call Unit (ECU) automatically transmits accident information to emergency response services, such as the vehicle’s location and allows emergency responders to speak with passengers. This greatly reduces the initial response time.
Signal relays (FTR-B3 or FTR-B4 series) are used inside of the ECU.
