In this catalog, Valeo presents a selection of its technologies in the domains of electrification, driving assistance, lighting and the reinvention of life onboard, four domains essential to the transformation of mobility, to make it cleaner, safer and smarter, in the automobile and beyond.
It serves as the central interface for vehicle occupants to effortlessly manage and adjust vehicle features, navigation controls, climate controls…
With its user-friendly design, it provides convenient access to a wide range of functions, allowing occupants to customize their driving experience according to their preferences.
Valeo is strongly committed to sustainable development and environmental protection: it was the first equipment supplier to promote R-744 Standard Heat Pump (natural refrigerant), winning a PACE Award in 2017 for this innovative technology. (PACE: Premier Automotive Suppliers’ Contribution to Excellence).
R-744 (CO2) Refrigerant has a significantly lower climate impact than fluorinated refrigerants (R-134a or R-1234yf). It also offers more power and efficiency at extreme cold temperatures (-18°C) thanks to its thermodynamic properties. It is the most efficient way of heating an electric vehicle in cold conditions.
The 400V inverter is the brain at the heart of the electric powertrain, it controls the electric motor. It converts Direct Current (DC) from the battery to Alternative Current (AC) to power the electric motor. It can also be used in reverse mode to charge the battery by transforming kinetic energy from the vehicle into electrical energy that can be stored in the battery. Valeo inverters are based on a scalable platform able to suit Si or SiC, for 400V & 800V. It is based on a highly standardized hardware and software architecture.
In the context of 48V network vehicles (MILD hybrids, etc.), Valeo offers 48V solutions, an evolution of our 12V technology. These products, using the same PTC stone technology, allow 48V to offer higher voltage and power. In addition, the 48V makes it possible to compensate for the shortage of energy for heating the passenger compartment while the engine heats up.
First fully brazed block on the market (+800 W while maintaining the same number of stones).
Valeo provides scalable advanced cooling systems & components that boost data centers’ performance for enhanced PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) and WUE (Water Usage Effectiveness).
As a recognized global player in automotive thermal systems, Valeo combines industrial strength and expertise to provide high-efficiency custom solutions from high-power IT workloads to edge data centers.
The in-vehicle Monitoring System is equipped with an interior camera connected to a processing Electronic Control Unit (ECU). It significantly enhances driver and passenger comfort and safety through its multifunctional capabilities. These include cabin watch, vital signs detection, selfies, child mirroring, occupant location, and posture detection.
The iPSU (inductive Position Sensor Unit) is a compact sensor dedicated to high speed sensing. The electric motor position sensor is a technical solution to acquire the geometrical position and orientation of the electric motor shaft. This product has to cover the complete operation range of the electric motor.
Active Grille Shutters help control air flows to improve fuel efficiency. Located at the front bumper lower opening, shutters are opened and closed automatically.
Active Grille Shutters are an essential contribution to vehicle aerodynamics performance and ultimately to EV driving range extension, by decreasing the vehicle’s drag coefficient while ducting the airflow for an optimized heat exchange at the front end.
PHEV Battery in thermoplastic composite for ligtweighting and reinforced mechanical and thermal battery protection.
The VCU (Vehicle Control Unit) is a module controlling powertrain functions and also general vehicle functions (like interfacing with pedals, lighting systems and many others).
