Overview
The Klitv 60–80 kW DC Charging Pile occupies the mid-range of the commercial charging market — delivering meaningfully faster sessions than entry-level 20–40 kW units while remaining within the grid and civil infrastructure budget of most commercial car park and fleet depot projects.
At 80 kW, the charger adds approximately 350–400 km of range in 30 minutes for vehicles with sufficient battery capacity and DC charge acceptance. That makes it suitable for retail and commercial sites where shoppers or visitors dwell for 30–60 minutes, as well as fleet operations that need partial charges between shift cycles. It is designed for EV charging and swapping stations, public parking lots, residential parking lots, and large commercial building car parks.
Technical Design
Power Architecture
The pile takes a three-phase AC 380 V ±15% input and converts power internally to DC. Output is adaptive across DC 200–1,000 V, so a single unit charges 400 V passenger EVs and 800 V high-voltage platforms. Rated output is specified between 60 kW and 80 kW depending on required throughput and available grid capacity.
Driver Interface and Authentication
A 10-inch display supports four startup methods — QR code, RFID card, password, and Auto-VIN — covering both ad-hoc public drivers and account-based fleet users. Interface language and branding can be customised on OEM and private-label orders.
Protection and Fault Management
The unit carries a comprehensive multi-layer protection suite covering overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, short circuit, leakage, lightning surge, and emergency stop. When a protection event occurs, output is cut off, the fault is logged with timestamp and code, and an alarm is pushed to the connected management system, so operators can diagnose issues remotely rather than dispatching an engineer to site.
Remote Monitoring
Through 4G or Ethernet, the pile continuously uploads session data — power delivery, energy, authentication identity, fault and alarm events, and billing records — to an OCPP-compatible CMS. The same connection allows scheduled start/stop, charging profile adjustments, and remote reboot.
Use Case: Commercial Car Park Deployment
A typical 60–80 kW deployment for a 200-space commercial car park might consist of:
- 8× 60–80 kW DC units covering the highest-demand bays (near the car park entrance, premium spaces)
- 20× 7–22 kW AC charging piles for standard bay coverage
- One OCPP-compatible CMS managing all units from a single dashboard
- Dynamic load balancing preventing total site draw from exceeding the building’s grid connection
The DC units serve drivers who arrive with low charge and need a meaningful top-up in 30–45 minutes. The AC piles serve drivers who park for two hours or more. This mixed architecture maximises the number of chargeable bays per unit of grid capacity while keeping both the level and reliability of service predictable.
Deployment Specifications
Grid Requirements
The pile requires a three-phase AC 380 V ±15% supply with dedicated upstream protection sized by a qualified electrical contractor against the configured output. Cable run calculations should account for voltage drop over the distance from the distribution board to the charger.
Civil Works
The unit is floor-standing and is mounted on a concrete pad or surface plinth with cable entry from the base. Installation instructions, wiring diagrams, and civil specifications are supplied with every unit.
