CARTEK POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULES
Designed to replace the functions of fuses, circuit breakers and relays in one small, fully electronics unit
INTRODUCTION
This Power Distribution Module is ideal for race cars and motorcycles which have minimal onboard electrical circuits but still require rugged and reliable protection and control.
Simple connections and no configuration procedures makes this system very easy use and quick to install.
The 4 x 10 amp outputs can be used to control power to various devices such as ECUs, instrumentation, lighting, starter solenoid, radiator fan, etc.
Channels will automatically shut down if a short circuit or over-
DIRECT REPLACEMENT
The Cartek Power Distribution Module Kit is a direct replacement for 4 x 10amp Fuses, 4 Relays and 4 Switches. This unit therefore reduces all the wiring in between the Fuses, Relays and Switches as well as simplifying the installation.
HOW IT WORKS
When mounting the PDM, electrical contact must be made between the vehicle’s chassis/earth and the metal case of the PDM at its mounting points. 12v Power Input is supplied to the PDM via the M6 electrical stud. Power Output connections are made using 6.3mm spade terminals.
Each channel is turned ON by connecting the corresponding channel signal wire to chassis/earth. Connection can be made using dashboard switches, oil pressure switches, thermo-
