Unlike conventional load shedding devices you can assign alevel to any or all outputs. No add-on modules shall be acceptable; the module with theoutputs must perform this function.2. Load Sequencing: The System shall be able to sequence from 0 8 levels any output.With 0 being no delay and 1 being a 1 second delay, 2 being a 2 second delay and so on.Sequencing reduces the amount of voltage spikes and drops on your vehicle, and can help limitdamage to your charging system. No add-on modules shall be acceptable; the module withthe outputs must perform this function.3. Output Device: The System shall have solid-state output devices. Each solid-state outputshall be a MOS-FET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor - Field Effect Transistors); MOS-FETs are solidstatedevices with no moving parts to wear out. A typical relay when loaded to spec has a life of100,000 cycles. The life of a FET is more than 100 times that of a relay. No add-on modulesshall be acceptable; the module with the outputs must perform this function.4. Flashing Outputs: The System shall be able to flash any output in either A or B phase, andlogic is used to shut down needed outputs in park, or any one of several combined interlocks. Theflash rate can be selected at either 80, or 160 FPM. This means any light can be specified with amultiplex truck with no need to add flashers. Flashing outputs can also be used to warn ofproblems or other unique idea you may come up with. No add-on modules shall be acceptable;the module with the outputs must perform this function.5. PWM: The modules shall have the ability to PWM at some outputs so that a HeadlightPWM module is not needed. No add-on modules shall be acceptable; the module with theoutputs must perform this function.6. Diagnostics: An output shall be able to detect either a short or open circuit.

These properties of its shape can be broken down relative to the horizontal and verticaldirection, represented as Ixx and Iyy. These act as a measure of the shape’s resistance to bending.The section modulus of mass of this profile takes into consideration the stresses imposed on thisprofile when a load is applied, by considering the maximum distance from the center of the profileto its outer most extremity. Section modulus is a method of measurement for the relative stiffnessof a beam section and is based on the horizontal and vertical directional value plus the distancefrom the center of mass to the extremities of the cross section from the coordinate axis, such thatZyy = Iyy/Y and Zxx = Ixx/X.Proposals calculating the frame strength using the “box method” shall not be considered.Proposals including heat treated rails shall not be considered.
