Branding Veefil: With a flexibility of choosing different colours, to better adapt the customer image, and an unlimited opportunity of creating the front and back vinyl, Tritium has not only a significant area for branding, but that can be used also for publicity as both areas are illuminated during night time, keeping the high visibility over such branding. Examples of Veefil different colours and brandings: Examples of different possible customer brandings:
Charger Communications and Operation OCCP Integration The Veefil is Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) supported both on OCPP 1.5 and 1.6, allowing simple integration to your chosen customer management software. We have successfully integrated to various platforms around the world. The Veefil engineering team can facilitate this proccess. Veefil Portal The Veefil Portal is an online information & control platform that gives owner operators vital real time information on the status and performance of the charging station. The control platform allow for remote support, maintenance and firmware updates. Real-time performance data Online diagnostics and control Remote enable and disable function Apply your own skin Remote error identification and reset
Communication Mechanisms The Veefil has 2 communication mechanisms built in that are available: 1. 3G (WCDMA 800/850/1900/2100 MHz or GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz) 2. Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 mbps) The most common and convenient communication used in Veefil deployments is over 3G, however we also provide gigabit Ethernet for challenging locations where no 3G coverage is available. Firmware updates All firmware updates can be done remotely via the communications connection or on-site by a technician, via the Veefil Portal. Operation and Maintenance The world cheapest ownership DC charger, with no mandatory yearly maintenance activity. No scheduled maintenance is required on the Veefil, being fully able to be monitored and diagnosed from base. Vandalism and misuse are the most likely cause for service call outs. Tritium recommends the following operations activities to be performed by unskilled staff convenient to the host site. Regular cleaning around the unit to avoid accumulation of debris Wipe surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water, or use alcohol based cleaner for harder to remove marks. Visual check to see connectors are in good order
DC Charger Options Power limiting The Veefil output is programmable to be limited to the charger to the available grid connection power. The limiting can be done as a default setting or changed via the online management tool. DC Power Input The Veefil is able to be powered by a direct DC power source. It can accept power from a solar PV array, batteries or other power generators. Input power range needed is 600-900V, with minimum 90A available AC Pack Option In order to maximise the vehicle models the Veefil can charge, we provide our customers with an AC Pack add on option. This solution is only recommended for locations with only 1 parking spot. Locations with 2 it is recommended a DC only + AC separated charger, as charging profiles are significantly different as explain below. The AC option is installed at the back of the Veefil in the add-on pack. The AC pack can be with fixed cable Type-2 (43kW or 22kW), or with a Type-2 socket (up to 22kW). It is an additional option to have AC and DC charging work simultaneously.
This Veefil Triple with AC, was created to support exclusively the European market, as this configurations is only requested in Europe, the rest of the world demand is DC only. But in 2015 we have seen a change on the European customer and tenders demand, being this solution less and less used towards the alternative DC 50kW Dual Chargers + AC 22kW Chargers. That support Tritium vision of the optimum configuration for a EV charging locations, having the right power/equipment s for the different types of charging. DC 50kW charging provide a 0 to 80-90% in less than 30 minutes. AC charging is limited but AC/DC Inverter on-board of the vehicles, so even that you have a 22kW AC charger, if the vehicles just have 7,4kW Inverters the maximum power able to be provide to charger is limited but the EV Inverter so 7,4kW. So standard charging time in AC is between 3 to 8 hours, with 2 exception Renault Zoe (~1h) and BYD (~1 h). Note: both Nissan and BMW use Inverters with maximum power 7,4kW (~charging time in AC 3-4 hours), just Renault and BYD use Inverters of 22kW. The recommended configuration is present here below considered to be the Optimum Solution, DC 50kW fast charger + AC22kW. Tritium can provide prices for the AC charger from a partner.
