EV CHARGER

EV charging explained

Range anxiety is real and we’re here to put your mind at ease! As the demand for electric vehicles continues to grow, combined with the push to be more environmentally friendly, the need for widespread availability of EV charging is also growing! Electric Vehicle (EV) charging uses electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) to pull electricity from an outlet or the electric grid it’s hardwired to and deliver electricity to charge an EV or hybrid vehicle.

EV manufacturers provide a basic charger (Level 1) that can plug into your standard electrical outlet and these charge an EV at an extremely slow rate (typically 2 to 3 miles of range per hour charged, which equates to 30- 40 miles per day if charged overnight). For individuals who drive more frequently, Level 2 chargers are needed but they require additional changes to your home wiring system. And for drivers who want even more range and faster charging speed, DC fast charging stations are the solution.

SARIN offers 3 different chargers to help address your customer needs:

Level 2 chargers (10kW)
DC fast charger (120kW)
DC fast charge (240kW)

10KW AC Charging Pile -Economical version (Level 1 Charger)

Level 1 the simplest and has the slowest charging speed of the three. Most EVs come with a Level 1 electric car charger, which you can simply plug into your standard outlet.

It’s only capable of 4 to 6 miles of range per hour, which is likely enough for your daily commute.

If you have an EV with a 200-mile range, it will take around 35 to 50 hours to fully charge.

Level 2 11.5kW AC Charger

Level 2 chargers require a 220-240-volt outlet that is typically used for major appliances such as washing machine and electric clothes dryer. These chargers can be hardwired in your home with a dedicated 220 – 240-volt circuit.

Level 2 chargers are ideal for places where individuals plan to park their cars for a long period of time – i.e. hotels, garages, airports, malls, etc. Level 2 chargers take approximately 8 – 10 hours to fully charge an EV.

Electric vehicles can go from zero to full charge in just under 10 hours.

Level 3 DC Charger - 120kW

DC fast chargers use direct current (DC) power instead of alternating current (AC) power and can deliver up to 400-900V of maximum power directly to your car. This can charge your EV from zero to 80% in just under 30 minutes!

Can all EVs utilize DC power – simple answer is yes!

Level 3 DC fast charging is the quickest and most powerful type of EV charging available today. A level 3 charging station is designed to deliver more power at faster speeds than Level 2 type chargers with outputs to over 350 kW, enabling you to charge a standard electric car in 15 to 30 minutes. DC fast charging (DCFC) utilizes commercial-grade three-phase connections and delivers DC power directly to the electric vehicle’s battery.

As electric vehicle adoption accelerates worldwide, the need for DC fast charging is increasing. DC fast charging is essential for public EV charging infrastructure and will help enable long-distance traveling, eliminate range anxiety, allow quick charging for drivers on a tight schedule and give households with no home EV charging somewhere to charge their cars quickly.

SARIN’s 120kW is designed to fast charge an EV and is ideal for gas stations / convenience stores, retail shopping centers, restaurants, medical office buildings, and many other quick stop locations.

Level 3 DC Charger - 240kW

This can charge up to 230 kW- 240 kW.

Can all EVs utilize DC power – simple answer is yes! All EVs sold in the U.S. use the Combined Charging System connector for DC charging.

SARIN’s 240KW is designed to fast charge an EV and is ideal for gas stations / convenience stores, retail shopping centers, restaurants, medical office buildings, and many other quick stop locations.
