With the global electric vehicle market explosively growing, fast and reliable charging solutions are one of the key forces driving the further development of electric vehicles. Among the various electric vehicle chargers, the 180kW EV charger has become the mainstream choice for commercial EV charging stations with its balanced charging speed, wide range of applicable scenarios and relatively reasonable costs. This article will introduce the basic knowledge, data, product features, etc. of this efficient charger in detail.
The 180kW EV charger is a DC fast charging device (DCFC for short). It converts AC from the power network directly into DC inside the device, and then directly charges the battery of the electric vehicle. This internal conversion step speeds up the charging speed and avoids energy loss from the vehicle charger conversion, thus achieving higher charging efficiency.
The input voltage range of 180kW EV Charger is 400V±15% three-phase electricity, and the operating frequency is between 45~65Hz, which can stably output DC power up to 180kW. The charging speed belongs to the Level 3 fast charging level, and its charging speed is extremely fast.
Take an electric bus as an example. If its power consumption per 100 kilometers is 50 degrees (kWh), using a 180kW EV Charger can add about 360 kilometers of range to it in one hour. When two electric buses charge at the same time, each vehicle gains only half the range, but the process still improves operational efficiency significantly.
If you are charging an ordinary electric vehicle, you can replenish about 80% of the battery in just 30 minutes. This charging speed greatly alleviates users' battery life anxiety.

The 180kW EV Charger is especially suitable for scenarios where high frequency and fast charging are required, such as:
1. Expressway service area: Provide necessary quick energy replenishment points for long-distance travel.
2. Professional charging stations: meet the high-frequency fast charging needs of electric taxis and other operating vehicles.
3. Business Center: Provide convenient fast charging services for car owners who shop and do business.
4. Electric fleet: Supports efficient operation of electric buses and electric trucks, reducing waiting time.
TKT 180kW DC fast charging station uses two charging port designs to quickly charge two electric vehicles at the same time.
1. Excellent charging efficiency and compatibility: TKT EV charger -180kW supports fast charging protocols such as GBT, CHAdeMO, and CCS2. They are able to intelligently identify vehicle type and battery status. Through the automatic matching function, the optimal charging curve is obtained and widely adapted to most new vehicles.
2. Intelligent charging power distribution management: In two charging port modes, power can be flexibly distributed. For example, the combination of 90kW+90kW or 60kw+120kw can maximize the utilization rate of EV chargers. Achieve higher profit margins.
3. Strong adaptability and remote management: supports OCPP1.6J, and can seamlessly connect to multiple charging operation management platforms or their own cloud platforms. For operators, remote troubleshooting, software upgrades and revenue management are also supported.
4. Durable structure and convenient maintenance: adopts a metal shell and a compact vertical design, the structure is durable. The modular design makes key components easy to maintain and replace, reduces operating costs, and ultimately benefits users from more stable services.
1. Quick energy replenishment: 1 hour can increase the range of about 240-480 kilometers to a single electric bus. For ordinary electric cars, you can replenish more than 80% in half an hour.
2. Comprehensive security protection: User safety is the most important consideration. The TKT 180kw EV charger has a built-in multiple safety protection mechanism, including overvoltage, overcurrent, overload, short circuit, leakage, lightning protection and other protection functions. For example, the advanced intelligent monitoring system can monitor the charger and cable temperature in real time to ensure the charging process is safe and reliable.
3. Simple and easy-to-use interactive logic: equipped with an 8-inch high-definition touch screen, which clearly displays charging capacity, cost, time, voltage, current and other information. The operation process is simple and intuitive, and there is no pressure for users to use it for the first time.

A DC EV charger is a rapid charging equipment. It operates by directly converting the grid's alternating current into direct current within the unit, then delivering this DC power directly to the electric vehicle's battery. Since it bypasses the vehicle's onboard charger (OBC), it can handle higher power levels, enabling fast charging.
AC chargers, on the other hand, supply AC power directly from the grid to the electric vehicle. The vehicle's onboard charger then converts this AC power into DC to charge the battery. The charging speed is primarily limited by the power capacity of the onboard charger.
Taking an electric car with an 80kWh battery capacity as an example, charging from a depleted 0% to 80%:
Using a DC fast 180kW EV charger: Theoretical time required is approximately (80 kWh × 80%) / 180 kW ≈ 0.35 hours, or about 21 minutes. Actual time is influenced by the battery's fast-charging curve, temperature, SOC range, and charging strategy, typically ranging between 25 and 35 minutes. Crucially, verify whether your EV supports such high charging power. The EV's Battery Management System (BMS) ultimately determines the charging speed.
Using a 7 kW AC charger: The required time is approximately (80 kWh × 80%) / 7 kW ≈ 9.14 hours, exceeding 9 hours. This is suitable for overnight charging during extended parking periods.
