A DC-powered charger

Beyond standard grid applications, the PKM150 can connect to third-party DC power sources — perfect for off-grid locations or sites where the grid doesn't have enough capacity. By dynamically allocating power, it maximises site efficiency, minimises downtime, and supports growing demand without expensive infrastructure upgrades.

  • 150 kW optimal power delivery for high-traffic locations
  • Grid or third-party DC expand capacity even in low-power or off-grid sites
  • Up to 8 connectors per hub to serve more vehicles and grow revenue

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What makes the PKM150 different?

The PKM150 is a DC-powered charger built around an industry-first DC microgrid design. A shared pool of power feeds the system's chargers, so power is allocated dynamically across connectors to cut costs and lift efficiency.

Can the PKM150 run without a strong grid connection?

Yes. Beyond standard grid applications, the PKM150 can connect to third-party DC power sources — ideal for off-grid locations or sites where the grid lacks capacity.

How many connectors can one hub support?

Up to 8 charge connectors per hub, helping you serve more vehicles and increase revenue potential on a compact footprint.

Which vehicles are compatible?

The PKM150 supports CCS and NACS connectors for compatibility with a wide range of electric vehicles.

Is it suitable for harsh environments?

With a liquid-cooled, IP65 fully-sealed enclosure rated from -35°C to +50°C, the PKM150 performs reliably in extreme conditions.
