Determing operating hours & consumption values
For the allocation of usage-independent costs of individual operating divisions or individual vehicles, consumption values need to be captured and recorded separately for each vehicle.
The vehicular management system accomplishes these requirements by the capture of:
- Operating hours
- Capacitance consumption
- Energy consumption total
- Energy consumption per operating hour
All values are captured continuously and transferred automatically to the management system at the proximate battery change. An activity of the driver is not required.
collaboration of vehicle and battery
With the convenient energy supply an optimal performance of the vehicle can be assured – the battery
Concurrently the battery remains in its optimal condition, if it is treated carefully by vehicle and driver. The following functions are offered by the vehicular management system to reveal this correlation:
- Operating hours of the battery in the vehicle
- Period of application of the battery in the vehicle
- Remaining capacitance of the battery at a change
- Operating power of the vehicle
- Deep discharge of the battery in the vehicle
- Temperature rise of the battery in the vehicle
- Battery change frequency
Vehicular stock and utilization peaks
The most challenging task of a vehicle fleet manager consists in optimizing the number of vehicles. This task cannot be resolved by use of a simple capture of operating hours.
Temporal and saisonal utilization peaks cannot be regarded and require a special tool:
The utilization analysis:
The current vehicle state is registered permanently in short-term periods.
At a validation of the vehicle fleet utilization the summarized operating hours can be compared.
Additionally the activity can be figured on a time line.
At the comparison of different vehicles in a similar timeframe utilization peaks can be identified and incorporated easily.
Less damages due to the accident recorder
With the so-called accident record (3-D acceleration sensor) all acceleration values of the vehicles can be recorded. In case of damages the analysis of the accident recorder provides a definite and temporarily corresponding correlation regarding the accidental damage.
Even vehicular damages due to long-term impacts (e.g., ground sills or bumps) can be recognized easily by the system.
