  Thermal Management Air conditioning

  R-1234yf / R-744 Heat Pump Heat Exchangers

  A water-cooled condenser is part of a specific hot loop/cold loop thermal management architecture. It connects the cooling loop to the air conditioning system. This innovative condensers use coolant rather than air to liquefy air conditioning refrigerant vapour.

  Battery cooling needs are increasing and require higher condensation performance. But a condenser needs also to work as an evaporator to recover heat from air at cold temperatures to avoid too much impact on the vehicle range.

  It is a key exchanger in a heat pump loop to heat up the cabin. However, when the heat pump cannot provide enough heat, a High Voltage Coolant Heater is required.

  Powertrain Electrification Power Electronics

  48V Inverter

  The 48V inverter, the electronic component that drives the 48V eMotor (electric motor), is able to be integrated on all architectures beyond P0 (alternator position) meaning between the engine and the gearbox or in the gearbox or on the vehicle rear axle.

  Valeo produces its own electronics including the power modules based on Transfer Molded Leadframe (TML) which allow Valeo to have a multisourcing strategy on the Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET).

  E/E architecture & Connectivity Telematics

  Telematics Unit for mainstream applications

  The Telematics unit for mainstream is introduced for mainstream applications as a comprehensive solution designed to meet regulatory requirements such as eCall, ISA, and RTM.

  The Telematics Unit enables seamless communication between the vehicle and external systems. With eCall functionality, it automatically contacts emergency services in the event of an accident, providing precise location information to expedite response times and potentially save lives.

  In-vehicle Experience Vehicle monitoring system

  Driver Monitoring System

  The Driver Monitoring System (DMS) is an important advancement in automotive safety, integrating an interior camera and Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to monitor the driver’s behavior. The DMS enhances passenger safety and meets regulatory standards by continuously assessing the driver’s attentiveness, mitigating risks of fatigue and distraction, thus reducing accidents.

  Lighting Systems Front lighting

  Fog Lights

  Fog lights are safety features that improve visibility on the road in bad weather conditions. Valeo designed small but high-performance fog lights for different types of vehicles.

  Existing two version:

  • ST66 GEN3 with optimized compact Fog lights concept.
  • ST90 fog lights, for Agricultural, Forest, Mining and Truck Fog solution.
• 
  Thermal Management Battery Solutions

  Battery Chillers

  Chillers are used in direct and indirect heat pump architectures to cool the glycol that runs in the battery coolers. Chillers are connected to the air conditioning circuit. Their modular design in plates allows battery chillers to be used in all levels of vehicle electrification, from hybrid to 100% electric, and they can be adapted to any kind of refrigerant (R-1234yf or R-744).

  ADAS Driving Assistance & Automated Driving

  Thermal camera

  Boosting the performance of active safety systems, driver assistance technologies, and autonomous driving capabilities to ensure their effectiveness in more than just ideal weather conditions is a prominent objective in the automotive industry. The thermal camera plays a pivotal role in realizing this goal, as it serves as an ideal complement to cameras that capture visible light. By doing so, it broadens the detection range to include vulnerable road users, animals, vehicles, and the boundaries of the road under all conditions of limited visibility.
