Double-digit million euro order for Rheinmetall

The deciding factor behind the order were the technical characteristics of the product. The CWA 2000 is a versatile solution for a wide range of cooling specifications. In principle it is just as suitable for battery-powered electric vehicles as it is for fuel-cell drives. The CWA 2000 has a long life-cycle and is designed for the HV3b voltage level, which allows an operating voltage of up to 850V. It is available with either an active or passive high-voltage interlock loop, which keeps the battery system ready for operation as long as the loop is closed. If the loop is interrupted, this system protects all persons who could come into contact with high-voltage components during the life-cycle of an electric vehicle by switching off the power.

This order is a confirmation of the customer´s trust to Rheinmetall´s technology for the North American market. The order is also of strategic importance, as it enables Rheinmetall to increase its footprint with components for the thermal management of electric trucks. This is a further important step with a view to the transformation of drive technology.
