ATLANTA — Heliox, A Siemens Business, a leader in EV charging solutions, introduces the H60D fast charger, a compact, high-utilization solution designed for a wide range of vehicles including cars, buses, and trucks. The system combines a dynamic power allocation between its two CCS1 outlets, broad EV and backend compatibility, and flexible mounting options to support higher charger usage across a wide variety of sites.

The H60D enables two parallel charging sessions from a single unit, cutting both hardware spend and footprint while increasing the number of vehicles that can be served at each location. Both outlets can operate simultaneously and share power dynamically, allowing operators to either deliver the full 60 kW to one vehicle or distribute power between two vehicles as demand shifts throughout the day. With 60 kW rated output and up to 150 A maximum DC current, the charger delivers efficient DC charging for a variety of cars, buses, and trucks, helping reduce overall charging time and keep assets in service.

EV compatibility is supported by US-based in-house testing and development capabilities, ensuring seamless integration. The charger’s flexible design allows deployment as wall- or pedestal-mounted and in either networked or standalone configurations, so operators can scale and customize installations to match site constraints and operational priorities. A new RFID capability expands driver access management, enabling Heliox products to deliver flexible authentication across fleet operations. Peak efficiency above 96% minimizes power losses and energy use while maximizing energy delivered to vehicles. A NEMA 3R-rated enclosure enables safe, reliable operation indoors or outdoors and is engineered to stand up to daily wear and tear, expanding siting options from depots and yards to parking lot environments. A compact, low-profile enclosure helps operators fit chargers into new or existing facilities with minimal disruption, further decreasing benchmark installation time through design improvements.

Built for interoperability and future-readiness, the H60D supports the SAE J1772 (CCS Type-1) standard, providing compatibility with the dominant North American DC fast-charging connector. A broad 200–1,000 V DC output range enables support for today’s and next-generation commercial EV battery platforms, protecting infrastructure investments as vehicle technology evolves. Communication based on open standards, incl. OCPP 1.6J and OCPP 2.0.1, enables robust vehicle-to-charger connectivity and supports advanced smart-charging capabilities.

Engineered and manufactured in the United States, the H60D leverages domestic engineering and production quality standards, with system-wide durability and thermal upgrades that support consistent performance over the product’s lifecycle. Rated to operate from -22°F to +131°F, the charger delivers reliable performance across diverse climates and seasonal conditions, enabling nationwide deployment strategies without extensive customization.

To support long-term reliability and predictable lifecycle performance, the H60D includes a standard 24‑month warranty and optional preventative maintenance programs that help operators maintain high uptime and optimize asset performance over the charger’s service life. This comprehensive support model gives fleets and site hosts confidence that their charging infrastructure will perform reliably and remain a strong, future-ready asset in their operations.
