The Tritium RT175-S is a 175kW Level 3 DC fast electric car charging station with dual ports- CHAdeMO and SAE Combo connector (CCS). The Tritium RT175-S High Powered DC vehicle charger, with isolated power unit, allows for continuous 175kW operation at up to 104°F/40°C. The compact and unquestionably futuristic industrial design is ideal for high population areas and can just as easily be adopted for highway rest stops, fuel stations, municipal installations, utilities, fleet, hospitality, education, destination centers as well as heavy infrastructure use cases such as mining and ports.

The patented liquid cooling technology is exceedingly durable over a wide range of environmental conditions, including high and low temperatures, as well as mitigating against dust ingress, humidity, and corrosive conditions. Compatible with all electric vehicles using the CCS and CHAdeMO standards, this charger satisfies output voltage requirements up to 920V DC, with output of up to 350A via CCS1/CCS2 (200A via CHAdeMO) connectors with long reach cable management. The 175kW charger has an integrated safety loop with tilt sensor and offers an optional escutcheon panel with interlocking isolator for augmented safety within the heavy infrastructure sector.

The lightweight charger has a correspondingly small footprint. This hallmark design feature of Tritium’s architecture makes it well suited to a wide range of installation sites. Optional features include cold weather kit for operation down to -22°F/-30°C, increased SCCR to 100kA for grid connection with high available fault currents, as well as options to support site power management and load balancing for multiple charger sites. The RT175-S represents a cost-effective solution; easy to install, own, and operate, thereby providing the earliest possible return on investment.

The RT175-S is equipped with Tritium’s market validated implementation of ISO 15118 Plug and Charge. Plug and Charge is a communications protocol that enables electric vehicles and charging equipment to communicate, be authenticated, and transact seamlessly via the charging cable. Additional support for credit card and traditional RFID based payments
gives owners / operators the flexibility of easily integrated alternative payment models. The optional credit card payment system supports both fixed price charging sessions and pre-authorised/post-settlement options, where unit-based pricing can be applied against either elapsed time or kWh consumed.

RT175-S represents an economically viable solution for sites where a limited number of chargers are required, while still providing Tritium’s highly sought-after mix of liquid cooling and IP65 sealed system, which prevents dust and water ingress. These are coupled with Tritium’s famously large and well-lit customizable branding surfaces that facilitate clear brand messaging and easy visual location of your chargers, buy electric charging station as well as promoting customer loyalty and highlighting public stewardship.
