Product description
General
The EV-Box charging station (Figure 1) is compatible with all mode 3
electric vehicles. The charging station is meant for both indoor and
outdoor use. Usage of the charging station is allowed in an ambient
temperature between -25°C and +60°C. Charging station models with a
modem are connected to a central system for registration of the kWh
charged.
Online - Model with modem and BackOffice
The smart charging station is designed with a RFID card reader, a Kilowatt hour meter and a
GSM/GPS/GPRS modem. These components together provide for the authorization and
communication of the charging session procedure with the central system (BackOffice) for
processing and settlement of the transactions as required. A GSM link with the charging
station is essential for the charging station to work properly.
However, a good link cannot
always be obtained in enclosed spaces, for instance a closed or underground car park. In
cases like this, the modem should be positioned outside the charging station along with the
GSM/GPS antenna and connected to the charging station. See Chapter 5.
Safety
There’s no power on the socket of the charging station as long as no plug is inserted and it
has not been started up by the RFID card. No protective residual current device or circuit
breaker is installed within the charging station. An external residual current device type A or
B as required by applicable regulation is necessary for installation. (See table 7, Technical
specifications).
Mode 3 Controller
The Type 2 socket is connected to the Mode 3 Controller and locking module in accordance
with IEC-61851. This means that the charging station is constantly checking for the presence
of a ground connection. In addition, the current is only switched on once the cable has been
connected to both the charging station and the vehicle and the presented RFID card is
authorized.
