In one aspect, a module is provided for use in vehicles that have thermal management systems including pumps, valves, and conduits for transporting coolant to thermal load. The module includes a support structure, control valves, and optionally pumps. At least one of the components supported on the support structure is fluidically connected at least one other of the components supported on the support structure. This module saves an assembly worker time in making all the fluid connections for the vehicle, permits the module to be hydro-tested, which can determine if there are any leakage points that need to be dealt with, prior to the installation of the module on the vehicle. Additionally, providing the module reduces the number of fluid connections that the vehicle assembly worker will need to make. |
