Delta-Q Technologies (Delta-Q) has announced that its mid-power charger, the XV3300, is now in full-scale production. With its 3-in-1 design, this charging system integrates a 3.3 kW battery charger, a 500W DC-DC converter to power auxiliary loads and an EV charging station interface. These features, encased in a ruggedized IP67 design, provide OEMs with a package for simplifying electrification of their off-road applications.
“No other 3.3 kW charger on the market also includes a DC/DC converter for auxiliary DC loads and an EVSE charging interface in such a compact size,” said Mourad Chergui, senior product manager with Delta-Q. “As we start full-scale production, we can begin to fulfill the substantial demand we received since we first announced the initial development.”
The 3.3 kW charging solution is available in 58.8, 65 and 120-volt DC models and is scalable, allowing OEMs to stack up to three chargers for power levels up to 10 kW. The XV3300 uses complex algorithms to deliver a charge to batteries of various chemistries and voltages.
Features of the XV3300 charger include:
- Reliability: The XV3300 battery charger is compact, rugged and IP67-rated. It is tested for automotive-grade shock and vibration. Its fully sealed aluminum die-cast enclosure protects the charger from dust, liquids and the effects of immersion in up to one meter of water.
- Protection: The XV3300 is a low-voltage charger that charges various battery chemistries and nominal voltages between 48V to 120V. It is also protected against short circuits, over-voltage and over-temperature for safe operation.
- Power Options: The XV3300 is scalable and can be paralleled to provide between 3.3 kW to 10 kW of power for faster-charging options. The charger is also available as an on-board and off-board charger, providing OEMs with additional flexibility.
- Integrated DC-DC Converter: It provides auxiliary power to operate vehicle accessories such as air-conditioners, controllers, lights, turn signals, navigation and communication devices. It also eliminates the need for an external DC-DC converter.
- EV Charging Station Interface: The XV3300 complies with SAE J1772 (levels 1 and 2) and IEC 61851 (modes 2 and 3) to charge from standard EVSE AC charging stations across North America and Europe. This feature provides end-users more charging options and flexibility.
