Introduction
This guide describes how to operate and maintain the ChargePoint® Express Plus DC fast charging platform. This section provides an introduction to the ChargePoint®Express Plus DC fast charging platform.
Express Plus Components
Express Plus is a scalable DC fast charging platform. It consists of three components: Power Module, Power Block, and Power Link.
-
Power Module is the power conversion component. It converts the upstream AC power into DC power to output up to 40 kW of power.
-
Power Block contains Power Modules. It can accommodate up to five Power Modules and has two DC outputs, capable of delivering up to 200 kW of power.
-
Power Link is the charger. It receives DC power from Power Blocks. A Power Link can accommodate up to two charging cables to charge two electric vehicles simultaneously.
For full specifications and certifications, refer to the product datasheets at ChargePoint Product Reference Documentation.
Eichrecht Compliance
The Express Plus Power Link 2000 station is Eichrecht compliant. Therefore, it is allowed to invoice for the amount of energy measured in this station.
It is equipped with up to two ports and measures energy with the integrated ChargePoint PLIM2000 meter.
The maximum power is 500 kW per port.
Station receipts appear on the display after charging sessions and can be retrieved from the ChargePoint driver portal.
The type label is located on the backplate on the left side (front view).
Serial Number Location
On the Station
The serial number (SN) located on the Eichrecht label on the rear upper cover (a) matches with the SN on Power Link 2000 at the top front (b).
Some older Power Link 2000s may have the Eichrecht label on the rear lower cover, as shown below.
To find the serial number of an Eichrecht-compliant Power Link 2000 charging station, visit Eichrecht Type Label.
