The secret is its simplicity. system controllers
The GM-Allison Hybrid Ep System is a study in the marvels of simplicity. The system consists of just six components – Two System Controllers (Hybrid Control Modules) act
E v Drive, Dual Power Inverter Module (DPIM), Energy Storage Unit, System Controllers and Range Selector. System like the “brain” of the GM-Allison Hybrid Ep System.
components are designed to fit in virtually the same space claim as a conventional drivetrain. This compact package They process information from system components and
easily installs in low- and high-floor bus chassis. It operates automatically as a parallel hybrid or series hybrid. driver inputs. The System Controllers provide system
command and control for precise vehicle propulsion
and energy production. They also perform diagnostic
and reprogramming functions.
