What standard of DC fast charger is the charging module available for?
With the rapid development of electric vehicles, ev charger station as the charging infrastructure is important by various countries. And charging standards have gradually formed four major regional and national standards in Europe, the United States, China, Japan, etc. Since Tesla's electric cars were developed earlier, they have a huge market share and have devised their own charging standards. That's why we say that there are currently five main charging standards in the world.
The five standard ports are based on the Chinese standard GB/T 20234, the North American standard CCS1 of J1772, the European standard CCS2 of IEC 62196, the Japanese standard of CHAdeMO and the Tesla standard of NACS.
As charging ports are different in each region, EV charging ports also need to be designed to meet the requirements of charging standards in different regions or markets, otherwise charging will not be possible and will not fulfil the requirements of their standards and regulations.
The following are the functional definitions of the five standard AC and DC charging ports

As the "heart" of the DC charging station, the charging module is suitable for various standard DC charging station. Its main function is to be responsible for controlling and converting circuits and ensuring the stability of power supply circuits. According to the market demands, the charging module is also developing towards higher power.
Currently the type of charging module is broadly divided into three major types products: one is a direct-vented module, one is an independent air duct and potting isolation type module, one is a full liquid-cooled heat dissipation charging module.
Maxwell has the above three types charging modules and continues to focus on the field of charging equipment for new energy vehicles, deepening cooperation with strategic customers around the world. Together with you, we will promote the construction of global charging infrastructure and help low-carbon green mobility around the world.
