Thoreb supplies ELSY, Thoreb’s intelligent E/E architecture system for 1000 buses/year to Caio Induscar, and has done so ever since 1998. Our nodes are available in three different sizes, with various numbers of inputs and outputs and can be combined to fit any bus model. Since all nodes operate independently, as well as interact with each other, the system is less vulnerable to failure than master/slave systems. As well as designing the electrical system using our nodes, a display with 15 keys is integrated in the dashboard. The display is used for vehicle health diagnostics. Also, the status for each node's in- and outputs can be studied. Settings can be made related to climate control, destination signs, lighting in- and outside the buses and windscreen wipers.

Thoreb’s subsidiary Thoreb do Brasil Sistemas Eletrônicos LTDA in Brazil is always close to our customers, ready to provide support in the best way.
