Optical Sensors & Windshield Cleaning Systems

AUMOVIO offers modular products and solutions with intelligent applications that increase the safety of drivers by cleaning windshields and cameras/sensors in any weather conditions. The AUMOVIO washer fluid reservoir is available in two technologies: injection or blow molded.  

• Blow-molded reservoirs: PE HD material
• Injection-molded reservoirs: PP material
• Reservoir volume for windshield cleaning: 2.5L to 4.0L
• Level sensors in different technologies: reed-switch or 2-pin-sensor
• Filler neck: blow molded, injection molded or corrugated

• Scalability: various reservoir volumes
• Reduction of tooling costs by using a common tooling half
• Reduction of logistic cost due to local production partners
• Environmentally friendly: weight reduction by thin-walled design
• Reduction of components with reservoir pump integration

Soiled windshields or/and  cameras/sensors are a risk to any driver. AUMOVIO offers modular products and solutions with intelligent applications that increase the safety of drivers  by cleaning windshields cameras/sensors in any weather conditions.  

• Corrugated materials: PA (polyamide), PP (polypropylene), PA/PP
• Rubber materials: EPDM and TPV
• Hoses with various diameters; bigger hose for less pressure lost
• Connector clip in different colors to distinguish front and rear hose
• 2nd generation connector: high temperature tolerance, easy mounting and dismounting with acoustic click-fastening
• 3rd generation connector: High temperature tolerance, direct connection to the corrugated hose
• Hose lines, separately for air and liquid routing

• Flexible pipe lengths
• Easy connection and release of hoses
• Reduced connecting forces
• Simultaneous lens cleaning operation
• Meets highest temperature & pressure specifications
• Cost saving combination of different connector generations
• Laser welding - carbon footprint reduction

Soiled cameras are a risk to any driver. AUMOVIO offers modular products and solutions with intelligent applications that increase the safety of drivers by cleaning the cameras in any weather conditions.  

• Cleaning of lens with pressurized liquid using coanda effect
• Removing of water droplets with pressurized air to ensure the camera availability and sensitivity even at adverse environment conditions
• Using air only to remove dust - saves liquid
• Draining function

• Long experience with heated nozzles and systems
• Nozzle with heating harmonized with camera
• Standardized and customized  parts
• Minimized designed space

The wiper arm cleaning nozzle system from AUMOVIO enables to supply the cleaning liquid directly in front  of the wiper blade during the wipe cycle. This measure allows the best utilization of cleaning liquid and can reduce the water consumption compared to conventional nozzles up to 50 percent with better cleaning results and no visual disturbing of the driver while spraying.

• Nozzle technologies: ball joint nozzle (adjustable jet) / fluidic insert
• Heated with heater wire incl. check valve and hose system or unheated
• Nozzles positioned behind wiper blade in slipstream
• Jet is independent of airflow or speed
• High flexible resistance wire to cope with bending cycle
• Integrated check valve for short response time
• Combined connector for electrical and hydraulic interface

• Efficient cleaning, nearly invisible cleaning due to spray directly along the wiper blade
• No disturbing of sight during cleaning process
• Easy to adapt on different wiper arms
• Reduced assembly time at OEM
• No hose routing along the bonnet over the hinge necessary
• Spray time can be adjusted acc. to wipe angle
• Less overspray over the top of the windscreen
