Charge Control C

Open charge controller for EV charging stations. IEC 61851 and ISO 15118 compliant. Includes multiple software stack options. 

New (August 2023): We now fully support the EVerest software stack.

Charge Control C

Charge Control C is an IEC 61851 and ISO 15118 compliant charging controller and it works in many types of AC charging station. It will bring your company in the position to start your charging business early and be competitive from the beginning. It will be your platform to improve your own solutions continuously by bringing your software solutions on that device. That's why Charge Control C is also a perfect solution if you want to keep using your python or linux software system. If you allow us, we will carry out the proof of concept together with you.

Collaboration

The product's software is extensively modifiable by our customers to deploy their own code base to the hardware. We found the ideal approach to achieve this with our linux Yocto OS. Our service and development teams provide outstanding support to just make the solutions work. We provide the approach, so that you can merge your software with our ISO15118 stack and continue to use the OCPP client.

What it can do?

Charge control C will reliable steer actuators like locking motors, contactors and ventilation devices  and it guides throuhg the whole charging process. Charge Control C connects with electric meters, RFID devices and further kinds of actuators and sensors. With its amount of general-purpose IO it can be connected to further devices. For special use cases in-tech smart charging likes to offer further interfaces on interest.

Future proof hardware and software

We are your experts on charging communication. Technically spoken, the charging process can be either directed by PWM basic charging or ISO 15118 AC high-level charging for such cars, which are already fulfilling this standard. Due to the controllers connectivity, it can be easily updated via OCPP, USB or Rauc.

  • Dynamic or permanent 1 or 3 phase charging configuration
  • Compatible with the OCPP 1.6j/2.0.1 back end systems
  • State of the Art update mechanisms
  • Suits for professional open software collaboration
  • Manageable by load management systems via KNX, OCPP or local systems
  • Eichrecht supported
  • Prepared for bidirectional charging
  • ISO15118-20 
  • Plug and Charge

Communication interfaces:

  • Ethernet
  • HomePlug Green PHY™ compatible QCA 7005 Chip for:
    - PLC over mains
    - PLC to car
    - RS-485 and Modbus protocol
  • USB
  • further interfaces (ask us)

Charge Control C is currently available in three different hardware variants (Charge Control C 100,  200 and 300) that are suitable for different complexity of charging stations.
