DC-Ladeinfrastruktur mit 19“-Racks modular und wirtschaftlich aufbauen. Foto:
With the Charx modular charging management system for 19″ rack mounting, Phoenix Contact offers a solution for the fast and economical setup of a fleat-covering fast charging infrastructure. The system in standardized 19″ format consists of several coordinated modules for distribution, conversion and control of the charging current. These can be combined to suit any charging situation:
The new Charx power distribution module supplies all components in the charging station with AC mains power. Integrated overvoltage protection, circuit breakers and overheating protection ensure the safety of all downstream modules and cables. In addition to a control module, up to five power modules can be connected and supplied. They convert the AC mains current into DC current required for fast charging of the e-vehicles. To scale the charging power, the particularly efficient Charx power DC power modules can be interconnected as required.
The new Charx control integrated control module consists of charging control, mobile modem, insulation monitoring, power contactors, fuse and overvoltage protection and many other components. It combines in one space-saving, highly integrated device all the necessary functions to control power modules and monitor the charging process. It also offers extensive communication interfaces for easy system integration and remote access. It manages up to five power modules with 30 kW each, so that charging capacities of up to 150 kW can be realized.
Compared to the classic configuration with mounting rail components, the modular design with this system significantly reduces the complexity of a DC charging pole. In addition, the quick connection technologies from Phoenix Contact and the established 19″ standard dimensions enable quick installation and replacement of the modules. From design and engineering to installation and wiring to maintenance of the fast charging stations, all processes of the charging pole manufacturer are thus accelerated and optimized. www.phoenixcontact.com
