Overview
The all new and innovative 240kW fast DC-DC EV charger DC input up to 1000V is a highly advanced and efficient charging solution for providing 2x 120kW EV charging possibilities at sites with weak grid connection and already installed DC microgrid or DC-coupled installation with integrated battery energy storage.
This all-in-pack solution features integrated electrical DC input and output protections and precharge and requires no external components to connect to the DC grid. DC coupling is possible within minutes.
Equipped with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and 4G LTE connectivity options, with in-built OCPP support, this DC input EV charger allows easy integration and management by any charging stations e-mobility operator.
The energy management capabilities and connection protocols are directly transferred from the best industry practices and protocols like Modbus, making it easy to be integrated into the modern complex DC grids with centralized control.
The high-quality 10” color display provides real-time information, making it user-friendly and easy to operate. Available for customization based on operators’ requests.
This fast Level 3 DC coupled EV charger provides true power output of up to 120kW per connector. Being possible to output voltage of 1000V, this EV charging station can charge any vehicle on the market – low-voltage architectures, high-voltage 800V architectures, and even buses and trucks.

Changing the paradigm
The regular fast EV charger converts the AC grid energy to DC power while EV batteries operate on direct current (DC). The constantly increasing demand for improved and sustained electric vehicle charging and especially fast EV charging will result in higher stress over the existing AC electrical networks, while they will tend to stay limited because of the enormous capital investments needed to be done to align them to the coming requirements.
Our mission in Ampernext is providing innovative solutions and methods for rapid EV charging that take advantage of the latest technologies and advancements in smart DC networks, microgrids, battery storage hubs and mixed AC-DC coupled grids. Such an approach brings minimal to none impact of the existing AC infrastructure, while maximizing site revenue to the site owner.
Our DC-DC EV chargers based on the Elevation DC platform eliminate the need for AC to DC conversion bringing energy savings and faster changing times. This will change the whole paradigm of how the EV charging infrastructure will be built in the future.
