Quick Answer: The Architectural Pioneer for Ultra-Fast Hubs

The Express Plus 150kW-350kW Modular DC Fast Charging Platform is a paradigm-shifting solution for large-scale EV infrastructure. Unlike traditional all-in-one chargers, the Express Plus uses a split architecture: centralized power cabinets house the conversion electronics, while slim, high-performance dispensers serve the vehicles. This modular approach allows for extreme power levels (up to 350kW per dispenser) and highly efficient land use, making it the preferred choice for highway service centers and heavy-duty logistics hubs.

Key Takeaways

• Split Architecture: Centralized power blocks paired with compact, user-friendly dispensers.
• Extreme Scalability: Add power blocks as demand increases, supporting up to 800kW per site.
• Liquid-Cooled Cables: Optional 500A liquid-cooled cables to enable true 350kW charging.
• High Throughput: Designed for continuous back-to-back charging sessions without derating.

High-Density Hub Layouts

The Express Plus platform is built for volume. Because the power conversion happens away from the parking stalls, the dispensers are significantly smaller and lighter than standard chargers. This allows for ‘pull-through’ charging bays similar to gas stations, accommodating large trucks and trailers with ease. The centralized power cabinets can be tucked away in a service area, simplifying the electrical layout and reducing the visible footprint in premium parking areas.

Advanced Load Management and Uptime

The Express Plus platform features Dynamic Power Allocation across the entire site. If one dispenser is idle, its power can be rerouted to another dispenser where a vehicle is requesting high current. This maximizes the utilization of the available grid connection. Furthermore, because the system is modular, the failure of a single power module does not take down the entire station; the system simply operates at a slightly reduced capacity until the module is replaced, ensuring nearly 100% uptime.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why choose a modular platform over an all-in-one unit? It offers better scalability and allows for smaller dispensers, which is crucial for high-density parking and highway sites.

Q2: Can I upgrade a 150kW station to 350kW later? Yes, you can simply add more power blocks to the central cabinet and upgrade the cables on the dispensers.

Q3: How far can the dispenser be from the power cabinet? Typical installations allow for up to 30-50 meters of distance, providing great flexibility in site design.

Q4: Are liquid-cooled cables necessary? They are required if you want to deliver more than 200A continuously, which is necessary for 350kW charging at 800V.

Q5: Is this system compatible with all EV networks? Yes, it uses standard OCPP protocols and can connect to any billing and roaming network.

Q6: What are the maintenance requirements? Most maintenance is centralized at the power cabinet, making it faster and safer for technicians.

Q7: Does it support V2G? Optional bi-directional modules can be integrated to support Vehicle-to-Grid services.
