CCS charging inlets – charging in the shortest amount of time

The CCS charging inlets with DC conductor cross-sections of up to 95 mm² now enable safe HPC charging with up to 500 kW. Depending on external factors, such as the ambient temperature, it is therefore now possible to charge electric vehicles in just a few minutes.
Vehicles can be charged continuously with a charging power of 250 kW, and up to 500 kW in Boost Mode.

One charging inlet for all vehicles

New generations of electric cars in particular must be able to be charged in a short amount of time with maximum safety. The same applies to electric utility vehicles such as buses, transporters, forklift trucks, tractors, construction machines, mining vehicles, cleaning and disposal vehicles, emergency vehicles, and tow trucks.

Our vehicle charging inlets are the universal charging interface for all vehicle types. They are the vehicle-side counterpart to the AC or DC charging connector. Equipped with a CCS charging inlet, a vehicle can be charged with both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).

Easy design-in

All vehicle charging inlets have an extremely compact design. In addition, the relevant external dimensions and screw-connection geometries of the CCS charging inlets and AC charging inlets are identical to each other.

This allows manufacturers and retrofitters to plan the same installation space for each electric vehicle regardless of the target market – from buses to motorcycles.

Secure interlock during charging

All vehicle charging inlets, with the exception of the GB/T DC charging inlet, are equipped with an electromagnetic locking actuator in accordance with standards. It locks the vehicle charging connector on the side of or directly onto the locking clip in the mating face during the charging process.

The actuator bolt is designed to withstand high pull-out forces. This makes it impossible to pull out the charging connector during the charging process.
