The 360kW dual-gun modular AC-DC fast charger targets highway service corridors, where uptime and quick service access decide revenue. With CCS2 outlets, a 200V-1000V DC window and OCPP 1.6J connectivity, it delivers predictable high-power charging while keeping installation and commissioning simple. This DC fast charging station pairs high utilisation with low maintenance overhead.

1. Modular AC-DC Power Topology and Conversion Chain An active front end feeds isolated DC/DC stages inside each cabinet, so grid harmonics stay low while output voltage follows whatever the battery management system requests. Busbar layout, magnetic components and cooling channels are shared across the 360kW family, which shortens lead times and simplifies spare part stocking. A single controller supervises rectification, isolation and metering, which keeps the power path short and trims conversion losses across the whole load range. Every cabinet is load tested before shipment and arrives with a wiring map covering contactors, fuses and surge arrestors for fast commissioning. Commissioning takes under an hour with the guided setup wizard. Matching power modules are documented in the datasheet.

2. 200V-1000V Wide Voltage Output With Constant Power Voltage and current limits are negotiated over the control pilot, then confirmed by the battery management system before the DC contactors close. Pre-charge sequencing limits inrush current, shielding vehicle contactors and DC link capacitors from stress during every plug-in. Cable assemblies rated 250A to 400A are matched to each outlet, and CCS2 leads are available in lengths from 4 to 8 metres. Output spans 200V to 1000V DC, covering 400V and 800V vehicle architectures from compact city cars to heavy-duty tractors. Continuous insulation monitoring isolates the outlet whenever leakage approaches the configured threshold, protecting technicians and vehicles alike.

3. 40kW Hot-Swap Power Modules and N+1 Redundancy Each module reports voltage, current, temperature and fan speed to the controller, which derates or isolates any unit drifting out of tolerance. Replacement modules ship pre-calibrated, and the controller recognises a new unit automatically once it is fully seated. Speed-controlled fans and intelligent airflow keep acoustic noise near 65 dB, which suits residential, hospital and retail locations. A shared DC bus lets any module feed any outlet, removing the fixed pairing that limits conventional charging piles. Modules slide out from the front, so service engineers never need rear clearance in tight parking layouts or wall-adjacent installations. Compatible EV charging connectors are listed separately.

4. Dynamic Power Allocation Across Dual Outlets When a second connector activates, the controller splits output according to state of charge rather than a fixed schedule. Scheduling profiles prioritise buses in the morning and light vehicles in the evening without manual intervention. Because capacity follows demand, the DC fast charging station avoids the idle-outlet penalty that drags down utilisation on paired connectors. Matrix switching allows any module to serve any gun, so one cabinet can run a single 500A session or two lower-current sessions. Priority rules can reserve one outlet for emergency fleets while the other follows a normal queue, all configured remotely. Site rules are tuned from the operator portal.

5. Outdoor IP55 Enclosure Built for Public Sites Cable management hooks keep CCS2 leads off the ground, extending connector life in busy public car parks. Ambient range runs from minus 30 to plus 55 degrees Celsius, with internal heaters protecting the 7-inch display in freezing conditions. A powder-coated steel body with anti-corrosion treatment suits coastal, industrial and roadside installations. Surge protection, residual current detection and emergency stop are integrated, and the cabinet is engineered for a ten-year outdoor service life. Front and side service access is available, and the base frame accepts either anchor bolts or a concrete plinth. Optional heating, ventilation and lighting kits extend operation to cold storage yards and dusty mining roads. Installation drawings cover plinth and cable routing.

6. Smart Payment, OCPP Management and Energy Integration Drivers authenticate by RFID card, mobile app, QR code or ISO 15118 plug and charge, with an optional POS terminal for bank card payment. Every session produces a metered record covering start, stop and energy delivered, mapping directly to the operator’s billing engine. OCPP 1.6J adds certificate handling and stronger message security for public networks that must satisfy national roaming rules. The controller exposes smart charging profiles, so a central system can cap site load during peak tariff periods. Remote diagnostics, firmware updates and tariff changes are pushed over the air, cutting truck rolls for routine maintenance. Backend integration follows the OCPP specification.

Deployment Support and Accessories

Projects usually pair the cabinet with Type 2 to Type 2 cables and a OCPP protocol controllers, all supplied from one factory. Engineering teams can review the company profile before order, while commercial questions go through the contact our team page. Standard builds ship in four to six weeks, and documentation covers wiring, grounding and network setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What output voltage range does the 360kW unit support?

The charger delivers 200V to 1000V DC at up to 500A, so it serves 400V passenger cars and 800V heavy vehicles from the same outlet. Constant power holds 360kW from about 500V upward, which shortens charging time on modern high-voltage packs.

How does DCDC architecture differ from a conventional AC-DC charger?

A DCDC stage accepts a DC bus from solar or battery storage and converts it directly, skipping one rectification step. That raises round-trip efficiency and lets the modular AC-DC platform operate during grid outages when paired with a BESS cabinet.

Can the two guns charge at the same time at full power?

Yes, with dynamic allocation. Total capacity is shared, so one vehicle can take the full 360kW, or two vehicles can split it according to state of charge. Matrix switching means any module can serve either outlet, and rules are configured remotely.

Which OCPP version should an operator choose?

OCPP 1.6J covers the widest installed base of back offices today. OCPP 1.6J is specified here for certificate handling, plug and charge support and stronger message security. Both profiles work with standard roaming hubs, and the protocol controller datasheet explains the mapping.

What protection level is needed for roadside installation?

IP55 is the baseline for outdoor public sites, combined with surge arrestors, residual current detection and an emergency stop. Coastal or dusty locations should add the anti-corrosion coating and filter service kit.

How is maintenance handled when a power module fails?

Modules are hot-swappable from the front. A technician isolates the affected unit, slides it out and seats a pre-calibrated replacement while the second outlet keeps serving traffic. N plus one redundancy keeps rated output available throughout.

Does the station support solar and battery storage integration?

The DC bus is storage-ready. Solar MPPT or a BESS cabinet can feed the link directly, and the controller can cap grid import during peak tariffs. This suits microgrid and carport projects where demand charges dominate operating cost.
