CHARX control professional – DC charging controller for fast charging stations

DC charging controllers for fast charging stations

The freely programmable CHARX control professional DC charging controller is the intelligence behind state-of-the-art CCS and CHAdeMO charging stations for mode 4 fast charging in accordance with IEC 61851-23. The controller communicates with the e-vehicle, monitors the charging process, controls parameters such as the charging current, and performs optional additional tasks. Its 3G modem allows convenient remote maintenance. In addition to DC charging, the controller also supports an AC charging point.

The DC charging controller in detail The all-round talent with versatile interfaces

Interactive image map: CHARX control professional DC charging controller

cellular interface

To use functions such as user management, billing, and remote diagnostics, use the integrated cellular interface to connect the charging controller to a backend system via OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol).

Ethernet interfaces

You can use the two Ethernet ports for visualization of the charging process on a touch panel, for programming via PC Worx, and for integration into a charging and load management system.

Status LEDs

See the status of the charging controller and data traffic on the communication interfaces at a glance via the LEDs. The LEDs can also be used for error diagnostics.

SD card slot

Here you can insert an SD card (available separately) that contains the user license for ready-made PC Worx programming blocks. The SD card can also be used to store logged charging processes and to transfer the controller configuration to other charging controllers.

AC charging interface

To ensure a standard-compliant AC charging process, the controller exchanges the necessary charging parameters with the vehicle via the AC charging interface in accordance with IEC 61851-1.

CCS charging interface

To enable standard-compliant DC fast charging, the controller exchanges the necessary charging parameters as per DIN SPEC 70121 with the vehicle via the CCS charging interface in accordance with IEC 61851-23.

Control of the power electronics

The necessary charging parameters, such as current, voltage, and power, are communicated to the power electronics via the CAN bus interface. To reduce your engineering outlay, we provide ready-made PC Worx function blocks for the CHARX power power modules.

Energy meter connection

To measure energy consumption and bill charging processes precisely, connect AC and DC energy meters via the RS-232 and RS-485 serial interfaces.

RFID reader integration

An RFID card reader can be connected via RS-232 or RS-485 so that users can authorize the charging process – either with a backend system or using the local RFID allowlist.

Digital I/Os

Additional customer-specific components, such as the control of the DC contactors, evaluation of the insulation monitor, monitoring of the door locking mechanism, or activation of charging status LEDs, can be connected via 16 digital inputs and outputs respectively.

The charging controller is programmed by an employee using ready-made function blocks in PC Worx

Wide range of possible applications Freely programmable in accordance with IEC 61131

CHARX control professional can be freely programmed for your individual charging application in accordance with IEC 61131. This makes it a versatile charging controller for the widest possible range of applications.

You can reduce the engineering work required with the ready-made PC Worx function blocks for vehicle communication in accordance with DIN SPEC 70121.
