Why Fiber Optics Now? Electric vehicles are going to 1000V+, 700A+ for cars and 2400V+, 1000A+ for trucks § Traditional thermocouples are too slow and significant limitation above 200V § Thermocouple output is in millivolts and gets affected by Electric and Magnetic fields § Safety Risk from Thermocouples: Risk of short circuit at higher voltages, Corrosion etc. § Thermocouples are Non-Linear: Sensors are non-linear, require complex compensation § Thermocouples are large: not suitable to fit into tiny spaces on PCBs, Power Electronics, Charging Points § Slower Response: Thermocouples are not fast enough for accurate thermal profiling § Variation from Batch to Batch: Impact accuracy and repeatability of testing § Susceptible to High Voltage and Magnetic Fields § Thermocouples are not suitable for Explosive Environments § Thermocouples are not suitable with longer signal cables § 3

Fiber Optic Temperature Solutions: EV Motors Why Temperature Testing and Monitoring in EV Effective Countermeasures in Practice 1. Design Optimization and Stress Testing at Product Motors? Development Stage 1. ~30%-40% of all failures in Induction Motors are related Accurate Motor Thermal Profiling • to Winding Insulation Breakdown Precise localization of weak points in insulation system • 2. High Temperature is mainly responsible for degradation Maximize Cooling System Efficiency • of Winding Insulation 2. Identify the Performance Limits of Motor accurately Winding Insulation Breakdown results into significant • 3. Accurate analytics for remaining design life and thermal stress – Start of a Vicious Cycle identification of incipient failure conditions 3. Higher Power Density of EV/HEV Motor drive systems 4. Effective machine thermal control and Protection further increases the risk of Thermal Stress 5. Design Refinement / Optimization based on filed data 4. EV/HEV Motors are susceptible to aging effects due to high motor loads encountered in Harsh Environments: Steep Terrains, High Payload, High • Ambient Temperature Rapid accelerations and breaking • 7
