Connectivity
On ChargEye, each Control Unit is equivalent to a single output satellite. It can be monitored, controlled and set up remotely.
Up to 400 kW with Dynamic Power Sharing
With up to 12 outputs and Dynamic Power Sharing, Control Unit supports a wide range of fleets and vehicles.
The Control Unit V1 comes equipped with a 200 A or 300 A charging cable and Control Unit V2 with 200 or 375 A charging cable, making them suitable for both overnight and fast charging applications, for electric trucks, electric buses and other heavy duty EV fleets.
Control Unit V2
The Kempower Control Unit V2 combines high charging performance, durable construction, flexible installation options, and advanced metering capabilities to meet the requirements of modern commercial EV charging operations.
The Control Unit V2 can deliver up to 400 kW of distributed charging power – 160 kW more than the Control Unit V1 solution. Quicker charging means vehicles can be ready to return to the road as soon as loading is complete, with no separate charging stop needed, so fleet operators can continue to be profitable, even while electrifying.
