VITO has developed various innovative products which are used in lighting, energy generation and storage, measurement and regulation techniques.
In addition to these products, products are also custom-made for the client. Due to confidentiality issues, these projects are not discussed.
Communication via the electricity net
VITOlink is an electronic system for communicating via the electricity network using devices connected to that network. By working via the existing network, the need for additional cabling is avoided.
The most typical use for VITOLink is the remote management (e.g. dimming) of street lights, indoor lights and emergency lights.
Safety in decentralised electricity generation and storage
DCSafe protects users and devices against electrical danger in circuits with direct current. The system detects electrical errors caused by human contact and mechanics. Typical applications for DCSafe are photovoltaic sun panels, electric vehicles and battery systems.
Generating electricity with a compact generator
AXIFUS is a disc-shaped permanent magnet generator. AXIFUS is simple, light and robustly built, offers high returns and provides a controlled output voltage over a wide tolerance area. Typical applications include electricity production using wind and water, hybrid electric vehicles and mobile power groups.
Measurement and regulation
NetSense is a widely usable sensor which is connected to a central calculation module in a measurement and regulation network. The NetSense is easy to install, is compatible with most common industrial standards, has unlimited expansion possibilities, is flexible and intelligent. The NetSense can be configured for various measurements: temperature, pressure, energy use, water use, revolution speeds, … .
CelSense is a variant of NetSense and continuously measures cell voltages in, for example, batteries or fuel cells.
Accurately measuring vehicle emissions
VOEMLow is a testing device for very precisely measuring emissions and usage of vehicles. VOEMLow can be used for stationary measurements and as an on-board measuring device for on-the-road measurements. At the same time as emissions, a variety of vehicle and engine parameters can be monitored.
