Power Rider M12

Power Protection, Engineered for Mobility & Automotive

Power Rider M12 PDU

 

The Power Rider M12 is a high-performance, intelligent multi-channel power distribution unit (PDU) built for demanding mobility applications. Designed with rugged reliability in mind, it delivers real-time diagnostics, configurable control, and robust protection for  off-road vehicles,  Marine Vessels, Yachts,  and other mobile systems operating in harsh environments.

With 12 solid-state channels supporting up to 25A each (and up to 50A via parallel operation), the Power Rider M12 provides precise, programmable power management across a broad 5–60V DC range. Its triple-layer protection architecture—including software, hardware, and thermal safeguards—ensures safe, arc-free operation, while built-in logging, condition-based alerts, and advanced diagnostics support system reliability and predictive maintenance.

Whether integrated into electric trailers, utility vehicles, or aftermarket systems, the Power Rider M12 offers unmatched control, reliability, and efficiency in compact form.
