SolarEdge EV Charger

Key Features: 1. Power and Charging Speed: • 7.4 kW Maximum Output: This charger operates at a single-phase power supply, providing a maximum output of 7.4 kW. This is a common charging speed for residential homes in many countries, including Australia. • Charging Speed: At 7.4 kW, this charger will typically add around 40 km of range per hour of charging, depending on your EV’s battery capacity and efficiency. The exact range per hour will vary based on the vehicle, but it offers a solid charging rate for daily home use. 2. Tethered Cable: • Cable Length: The charger comes with a 7.6-meter (25 feet) tethered Type 2 cable. This long cable is ideal for flexible installation, allowing the EV charger to be placed in a convenient location and still reach most vehicles parked in a driveway or garage. • Type 2 Connector: The Type 2 connector is the European standard for AC charging and is used by most EVs sold in Australia, including Tesla (using an adapter), Nissan, BMW, Hyundai, and others. 3. Solar Integration: • One of the standout features of the SolarEdge EV Charger is its integration with solar power systems. If you have a SolarEdge solar inverter installed, this charger can prioritize charging the vehicle using solar energy over grid electricity. It optimizes energy use, ensuring that your vehicle is charged with renewable energy when possible, potentially reducing your electricity bills. • If you don't have a solar system, the charger can still function like a standard EV charger, drawing power from the grid. 4. Connectivity: • The charger is Wi-Fi-enabled, allowing you to connect it to the SolarEdge monitoring platform or app. This enables remote management, so you can monitor your charging sessions, track energy usage, and get notifications on your phone about charging status or issues. • Integration with Smart Energy Management: The charger can be connected to your home’s energy management system (if you have one) to optimize energy consumption and manage charging times, making it possible to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates or additional solar power generation. 5. Safety Features: • The SolarEdge EV Charger includes built-in safety features such as overcurrent protection, temperature monitoring, and ground fault protection, ensuring safe operation during each charging cycle. • It also features dynamic load management, which allows it to adjust the power delivered based on the electrical capacity available in your home, preventing overloading of circuits. 6. Design and Durability: • The charger is designed for indoor or outdoor use with an IP54 rating, meaning it is resistant to dust and water splashes, making it suitable for installation in various locations, such as a garage or driveway. • Its modern, sleek design is compact and easy to install, making it a good choice for homeowners looking for an efficient and aesthetically pleasing EV charging solution.
