“There are stair-step requirements to reduce nitrogen oxides and particulates in the commercial vehicle space and it is expected the off-highway segment will have to adhere to similar regulations in the near future,” said Craig Pytel, product manager, Vehicle Controls and Wireless, Eaton’s eMobility business. “Manufacturers are striving to electrify all aspects of vehicles and are in various stages of the technology curve. Eaton’s low-voltage products are rugged and able to withstand harsh environments, making them ideal for off-highway applications.”
The construction segment can convert to electrified vehicles, reduce emissions
Eaton offers numerous low-voltage products for the construction field that allow critical vehicle component interaction, including control modules, “smart” switches and keypads, multiplex and controller area network (CAN)-based power distribution modules, traditional circuit breakers and fuses.
Construction equipment is sometimes necessary for indoor operations, necessitating an outside ventilation solution to prevent the harmful buildup of emissions. To simplify such operations, operators are looking for electrified versions of smaller equipment that can be operated safely indoors.
Construction equipment manufacturers are increasingly adopting higher-voltage architectures, including 48-volt and greater systems, to run more power-consuming equipment. While this fulfills power requirements, there is still a need to run traditional lower-voltage systems. Eaton's DC-DC power conversion units can reduce or increase the voltage as needed. The units also maintain different voltage levels to prevent overloads or damage.
Agriculture industry converting to electrical components
Agriculture equipment manufacturers are following the lead of the commercial vehicle industry by replacing or augmenting existing equipment. Agricultural equipment is traditionally run by hydraulics, which today can be replaced with electrified components. This eliminates the risk of hydraulic leaks, which can contaminate soil and kill crops, and are expensive to repair.
48-volt electric catalyst heater controller provides precise aftertreatment control
Eaton’s air-cooled electric catalyst heater controller, part of its broader 48-volt electrical system portfolio, contains several technologies that allow manufacturers to integrate 48-volt architectures into next-generation vehicles. The controller manages power delivered to the aftertreatment heater and is designed to receive commands from the aftertreatment system and for maintaining system voltage control. The controller was developed to help manufacturers meet looming emissions regulations.

Organon and CAF, Development Bank of Latin America, Launch First-of-Its-Kind Collaboration to Increase Sustainable Financing in Women’s Health7.6.2023 14:30:00 EEST | Press release
Today, Organon (NYSE:OGN), a global healthcare company focused on women’s health, and CAF, Development Bank of Latin America, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals through the design, structure and implementation of sustainable programs that promote and improve equity, health and autonomy of girls and women in Latin America and the Caribbean. Across the globe, tremendous gaps exist in women’s health that can potentially prevent women and thus economies from achieving their full potential. Sustainable financing can advance progress in women’s health by mobilizing capital towards initiatives that might not otherwise receive adequate support like increasing access to sexual and reproductive health education and healthcare services. Sustainable financing is one potential solution to address constrained government budgets while catalyzing healthcarei and socioeconomic progress. Health-focused social impact investments –
Falcon 40B: World’s Top AI Model Rewards Most Creative Use Cases in Call for Proposals with Training Compute Power7.6.2023 13:21:00 EEST | Press release
Falcon 40B, the world’s top-ranked open-source AI model on the Hugging Face leaderboard for large language models (LLMs), is registering an overwhelming response to a Call for Proposals from scientists, researchers, and SME entrepreneurs keen to deploy the model for innovative use cases.
