The EPS Power Unit contains the brain of the system, DTI (DigitalTech Intelligence) as well as the battery pack. This is the heart, brain and power behind the Campagnolo electronic drivetrain.

The DTI's main functions are monitoring and managing the battery pack, enabling and monitoring the derailleurs, signalling any problems via the LED or buzzer and communicating with the EPS interface. Once it has received digital signals from the interface, the Power Unit use a special algorithm to process them and translates into movement of the derailleurs. The DTI, housed inside the Power Unit, continuously monitors the signals that arrive from the interface and the derailleurs, managing their operation.

The Power Unit, along with the interface, also acts as the diagnostic centre of the system, signalling any problems in the system via an LED and acoustic buzzer in the Power Unit. Campagnolo deliberately housed all the system electronics inside the Power Unit, making the system less vulnerable to external contaminants (such as oil, water, mud and dust) and make it reliable even when subjected to significant vibrations, such as those generated by professional riders on events as extreme as Paris-Roubaix.
By using this design philosophy the chances of any failures in the system are dramatically reduced and is guaranteed to function even in the most extreme weather or road conditions. To further protect the Power Unit, the housing for the Battery Pack has been produced from a self-extinguishing plastic material.

The DTI is equipped with a number of input/output data ports which allow you to check the system remotely and even update the Firmware and EPROM.

The battery uses Lithium Ion technology and has an unprecedented battery life. The fully-charged system operates at values of 11.1 nominal Volts (a capacity of 950mAh) and 12.6 maximum Volts. The battery life depends on how much the system is in use or on stand-by. In stand-by mode the system is able to maintain the charge for up to 6 months, at the end of which the red LED will signal that the battery requires charging. To avoid damaging the battery pack, the system turns off automatically when it reaches 9 Volts. If it reaches 7.2 Volts, a special circuit inside the battery pack (PCM) turns the battery pack off to avoid absorbing additional energy. When the charge has dropped to this level and the LED is off, it is advisable to recharge the battery to avoid damage to the system. It is advisable to recharge the system at least every 6 months to avoid the battery going flat.

Campagnolo EPS is a project that believe it or not started 20 years ago, tackled by people with a great vision for the future, a large heart and an incomparable passion for their work and the world of cycling.

All too often the launch of a new and innovative product on the market is not stopped by errors in design or quality issues, but more often by the difficulty in finding technological solutions that satisfy the needs and ideas that emerge from the minds of the engineers in the Campagnolo research and development department.

The history of the Campagnolo electronic drivetrain, now officially known as Campagnolo EPS (Electronic Power Shift), actually covers six distinct stages of design, each of which corresponds to great innovation, great change of direction and great challenges. Most of all though, they each represent a ring in the DNA of the current EPS, making it a product that has a soul, created by people with a soul.

Founded in Vicenza in 1933, Campagnolo S.r.l was founded by Commendatore Tullio Campagnolo. The company soon expanded, focusing on the three fundamental concepts that would also characterise its future – performance, technological innovation, and quality of products and services.

Campagnolo S.r.l. products are created using the most innovative technologies and production processes, with prime-quality materials from the aerospace industry: carbon fibre, titanium and aluminium alloys. And it is precisely in the carbon-fibre sector that Campagnolo, after dominating the aluminium world for decades, has now decided to make a name for itself with applications that were previously deemed unthinkable for the cycling market. It therefore comes as no surprise that the Composites Department, launched in 1998, currently employs one third of Campagnolo’s employees. Products in carbon fibre are constantly being created as a glance at the current collection reveals: cranksets, front and rear derailleurs, integrated controls, headsets, seatposts, bottle cages and high and low-profile wheels all made from carbon fibre.

Besides distinguishing themselves at the top in terms of innovation, quality and performance, Campagnolo products have also become the benchmark for design. This is testified by the prestigious Compasso d’Oro award from the Associazione Design Italiano in recognition of the Veloce groupset, Ergopower integrated controls and Shamal high-profile wheels. Campagnolo S.r.l. is not only a star of the cycling world, but of sport in general, as recognized by the Wall Street Journal which has named it as one of the most prominent sports brands in the world. This reputation has been earned not only through its countless racing successes, but also by virtue of the attention given to quality and to service that sets this company apart from all others.
