EV Charging User Interface (UI) Systems
Technical Information
Volex has a wealth of experience in designing and developing advanced, robust industrial systems with integrated displays that will meet and exceed the challenges of electric vehicle charging stations. Volex can supply, design and integrate all components and sub-systems for EV chargers including power management, embedded computing, displays with touch solutions, network connectivity, cabling and mechanical fixtures and fittings.
Robust Displays for EV Charging Stations
The display is one of the most critical components of an EV charging station, serving as the primary interface between the user and the system. Our display solutions are designed to be both durable and user-friendly:
High-Brightness Displays: To ensure visibility in all lighting conditions, especially in outdoor environments, we offer high-brightness displays that remain clear and readable even under direct sunlight. These displays are perfect for showing essential information such as charging status, instructions, and pricing.
TFT and OLED Displays: Our range of TFT and OLED displays provides sharp resolution and vibrant colours, offering an aesthetically pleasing and functional interface. These displays are available in various sizes, with or without a touch interface, and can be customized to fit the specific design requirements of any charging station.
Weatherproof and Vandal-Resistant Designs: Given the outdoor placement of many EV charging stations, it is essential that displays are protected against UV, harsh weather conditions and potential vandalism. Our display solutions are built to be weatherproof, easy to use with gloves, and vandal-resistant, ensuring long-term durability and reliability.
Advanced Driver Electronics
Driver electronics are the backbone of any display system, controlling the operation and functionality of the screen. We provide advanced driver electronics designed to optimize performance and energy efficiency:
High-Efficiency Drivers: Our driver electronics are engineered for high efficiency, ensuring that displays operate at optimal performance while minimizing power consumption. This is particularly important for EV charging stations that may need to operate continuously in various environmental conditions.
Customizable Electronics: We offer customizable driver electronics that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of different display types and sizes, ensuring seamless integration with the overall charging station design.
Embedded Boards for Control and Connectivity
Embedded boards are essential for managing the complex operations of an EV charging station. These boards handle everything from user interface control, advertising media playback and communication with the vehicle and backend systems:
Powerful Embedded Boards: We provide embedded boards with powerful processors capable of handling real-time data processing and control tasks. These boards are designed for reliability and performance, ensuring that charging stations operate smoothly and efficiently.
Connectivity Solutions: Our embedded boards include integrated connectivity options such as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and cellular modules, enabling secure communication between the charging station, the vehicle, and the cloud. This ensures that all system components work together harmoniously, providing a seamless charging experience for users.
Durable Plastic Mouldings and Metalwork
In addition to electronic components, the structural integrity and design of EV charging stations are equally important. We offer high-quality plastic mouldings and metalwork that are essential for creating durable, weather-resistant charging stations:
Custom Plastic Mouldings: We provide custom plastic mouldings that can be designed to fit the exact specifications of your charging station. Our mouldings are made from durable materials that withstand the rigors of outdoor use, including exposure to UV rays, temperature fluctuations, and moisture.
Precision Metalwork: Our metalwork solutions offer structural support and protection for the internal components of EV charging stations. We use high-quality materials to ensure that the metal enclosures are corrosion-resistant, sturdy, and capable of withstanding impact and vandalism.
