Charged Virtual Conference

We will participate in the Virtual Conference of ChargedEV. Our two experts Kevin Martin and Robert Ziebart will hold a session on the following topic:

Meeting New Requirements For High Voltage EV Charging Coupler

EV charging infrastructure continues to experience rapid growth with a significant portion being faster and higher power DC charging devices. With faster charging comes the demand for higher operational cycles for all components within the charging device. Designers and manufacturers are evaluating and improving the ruggedization of every component including controls, electronic assemblies, cables, and couplers. In particular, the coupler connector will benefit from materials which can withstand high wear cycles in exposed environments over the operational lifetime of the charging device.

This presentation will introduce and describe a new low-friction, high-wear, silver composite material for coupler connectors.

The session will be hold on April 20, 2023, 9:30 am EDT. Click here to register for the webinar.
