HPC Series

---

The HPC series is the result of two years of research and development by EDN’s R&D team to deploy a new conversion technology that improves power density, specific power and to be cost-effective for mass production. With its extremely compact design HPC series can be installed in any harsh application.

The battery voltage can vary between 140 to 840 Vdc and the chargers can be easily paralleled to support a nominal on-board power up to 220 kW. the series can also provide its maximum power output for the entire battery voltage range to optimize the charging time (CPC – Constant Power Curve). The AC grid connection is a pure 3-phase no neutral input and is suitable for nominal plug-in to 400 Vac/50 Hz and 480 Vac/60 Hz mains grids and provide a full compliance with SAE J1772, EN61851 e ISO15518 to be easily connected to the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) around the globe.

The SAE J1939 CAN interface provides control, monitoring and diagnostic to the system.

The entire charger has IP67 and IP6K9K protection rating and a galvanic isolation ensures a definitive safety separation between the vehicle and the grid. HPC series has been designed for a minimum service lifetime of 15 years, providing full power charging for 50.000 hours at the nominal cooling condition. HPC series has passed an extensive validation plan based on ECE R100, ECE R10, ISO 26262 and SAE J1455 that covers: thermal cycle and shock tests, HALT test, shock and vibration tests, dust & sand and water intrusion tests, chemical resistance and salt spray tests, electromagnetic immunity and emission tests, safety tests, parametric and functional tests.

The series is CE and E(e) marked. HPC series, single or paralleled, covers a wide range of commercial and industrial plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) or pure electric vehicles. HPC series is suitable from small to large buses, trucks and vans, underground vehicles, boats and more.
