FAQs
What is a DC charger?
A DC charger is a fast charger that charges the battery with direct current (DC), resulting in a significantly shorter charging time than a traditional AC charger. DC chargers are primarily used for electric cars, electric construction equipment, trucks, buses, and other vehicles with large batteries.
What is the difference between AC and DC charging?
During AC charging, alternating current is converted to direct current in the vehicle’s built-in charger, resulting in a lower charging power. A DC charger, on the other hand, converts the current directly at the charging station and can therefore deliver significantly higher power and faster charging.
How fast does a DC fast charger charge?
Charging time depends on the battery size, the charger’s power, and the vehicle’s maximum charging capacity. A 120–360 kW DC fast charger can charge many electric vehicles and construction machines significantly faster than a standard AC charger.
What is CCS2?
CCS2 (Combined Charging System) is Europe's most common standard for fast charging of electric vehicles. Most modern electric cars, electric construction equipment, and heavy-duty electric vehicles use CCS2 for safe and efficient DC charging.
For electric construction equipment, a DC charger is generally recommended because it offers shorter charging times and higher uptime. The choice of charger depends on battery size, the fleet of machines, and how quickly the machines need to be back in operation.
Which charger is suitable for electric construction equipment?
Fast charging reduces downtime, increases availability, and makes it possible to keep electric vehicles and construction equipment in operation throughout the workday. For businesses, this means higher productivity and better utilization of their fleet.
