Under the "Charx connect" range, Phoenix Contact offers different charging cables for e-mobility. The charging process must be robust and resistant, but also easy to handle. High-quality AC and DC charging cables have been developed for this purpose. Among other things, these cables are particularly characterized by silver-plated power and signal contacts, high-precision temperature monitoring and integrated locking. Production is in accordance with automotive standard IATF 16949 and ISO 9001.
Lower power range - CCS C-Line: For the private to semi-public sector, such as carports, company parking lots, restaurants, retail and public parking garages, the CSS Type 1 and CSS Type 2 charging standards are used. The charging power (nominal operation) here is 40 kW...80 kW. The charging cables do not have a replaceable mating face and are not cooled.
Medium power range: For semi-public to public areas, such as company parking lots, restaurants, retail stores, public parking garages and gas stations, the CSS Type 1, CSS Type 2 and GB/T charging standards are used. The charging power (nominal mode) here is 80 kW...250 kW. In boost mode, it can be increased to 500 kW. The charging cables have a replaceable mating face and are not cooled.
Upper Power Range - High Power Charging (HPC): For the public sector, such as HPC fast charging parks, gas stations and rest areas on highways and freeways, one uses the CSS Type 1 and CSS Type 2 charging standards. The charging power (nominal operation) here is 400 kW...500 kW. The charging cables have a replaceable plug-in face and are cooled by a liquid.
