High-voltage thermocouple module for 1400V e-mobility testing

imc Test & Measurement, part of Axiometrix Solutions, has introduced the CANSASflex HISO-T-8-2L, a CAN-Bus-based high-voltage thermocouple measurement module designed for precise temperature acquisition in high-voltage environments. Developed for the demands of next-generation e-mobility systems, the module supports safe, accurate thermal monitoring up to 1400 V.

For eeNews Europe readers working in EV R&D, battery systems, or powertrain validation, this solution may address increasingly critical safety and performance requirements for thermal testing in HV architectures exceeding 800 V.

Engineered for next-generation battery and drive systems

The HISO-T-8-2L is the latest addition to the CANSASflex series and succeeds its predecessor with a stronger focus on futureproof isolation, DAQ flexibility, and safety-critical design. It provides 8 thermocouple channels via LEMO.2P Redel connectors, supporting four Type K thermocouples per port—standard for thermal analysis in battery and drivetrain systems.

The module delivers:

n
• High-voltage isolation up to 1400 VDC, tested to 8 kV peak and 4.4 kV rms
n
• Precision monitoring, enabling accurate detection of thermal anomalies
n
• Click-in modularity, compatible with the existing CANFX acquisition platform
n
• Rack-mount readiness, for seamless integration into 19” automotive test stands

“By futureproofing isolation levels, the new HISO-T-8-2L is the ideal data acquisition solution in high-voltage environments,” the company stated. Designed for monitoring temperature in DC bus links, traction batteries, or electric drive systems, the high-voltage thermocouple module gives engineers the confidence to work safely and precisely under demanding conditions.

Designed for integration in modern test stands

As automotive systems move toward faster charging and higher voltages, thermal risks increase—particularly in compact battery packs or high-load components. The HISO-T-8-2L addresses this with both mechanical simplicity and electrical robustness, making it suitable for use in multi-channel test environments where modularity, safety, and signal clarity are key.

The module slots directly into the CANSASflex ecosystem and is fully compatible with CANopen protocols, enabling real-time communication with control systems or data loggers in test labs and development rigs.
