General temperature range
In general, a charging station is operational if the ambient temperature is between -25 °C and 40 °C.
The mentioned temperatures are the ambient temperature for the product based on the standard color of the housing: RAL9016. Other (darker) colors may adversely affect the operating temperature of the product.
When the product is exposed to lower or higher temperatures, continuous operation at full power cannot be guaranteed. In case of high temperatures, the charging station will automatically and gradually reduce the charging current.
This will stabilize the internal temperature and reduce the chance of a transaction being paused unexpectedly.
This will stabilize the internal temperature and reduce the chance of a transaction being paused unexpectedly.
If the internal temperature of the charger exceeds the set value, Error 401 will be displayed. Charging will be impossible until the inside temperature drops below the limit that was set.
In case the temperature inside the charger drops below the set value, Error 402 will be displayed and charging will not be possible until the temperature raises above this temperature.
Warning
Exposing the product to the elements will cause gradual aging of the material and may result in discoloration of the product. Therefore, wherever possible, place the product in a sheltered location to optimize the life of the materials. |
