Impact of extreme cold conditions in winter on charging stations

The industrial temperature level is in the range of -40 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees.

 

Since charging stations work in outdoor environments, the internal components must theoretically adopt industrial-grade specifications. However, many charging station design companies use a large number of civilian-grade devices for a simple reason: the price difference is very large.

Civilian-grade chips generally do not cause major problems in warm climates, but in the cold winter, various problems such as freezing and shutdown of charging stations continue to occur.

 

If the charging station you buy is a product using civilian-grade devices, and those civilian-grade products want to be used in the wild environment of high-altitude cold areas, some manufacturers use a clumsy and smart approach, adding a hot air blower inside the device when it is cold started, and first use the hot air blower to heat the device before starting it. If you encounter such equipment, you should return it if you should return it, or scrap it if you should scrap it.

 

Which components of the charging station are easily affected by temperature?

 

First of all, the screen. Currently, most screens are used in civilian-grade temperature ranges worldwide due to the influence of technology and craftsmanship, so the impact of low temperature on charging stations first affects the screen. Although some charging station designs remove the screen and use mobile phone projection as a display alternative.

 

Secondly, charging stations using Linux system require sufficient processor speed and sufficient DDR memory. These two devices are sensitive to temperature, and the risk of freezing in severe cold conditions is greatly increased.

Thirdly, when selecting power supply modules, it is necessary to match the environmental range of use and pay attention to the high and low temperature range of the module.

 

However, some of our core parts are selected from well-known brands to ensure excellent quality. Not only that, we have also invested a lot of energy in the independent research and development of key components, and placed them in extremely harsh environments for repeated testing, from the ice and snow in the northernmost part of China to the high-altitude and hypoxic areas of the Himalayas. After many tests, our charging stations are extremely stable and can easily cope with various harsh environments, providing you with continuous and reliable charging services.

 

Finally, remind all charger owners that there is a lot of dust in winter, and the protective net must be cleaned regularly. Frost is easy to form when seasons meet, especially for charging stations that are restarted after a long period of shutdown. Be sure to do pretreatment before starting.
