The charging gun is an important device for charging new energy vehicles. It can transmit electrical energy from the charging pile or household socket to the car's battery pack. According to different regions and standards, there are many types of charging guns, which are mainly divided into DC charging guns and AC charging guns.
The DC charging gun is a high-current, high-power charging gun, which is generally equipped with a fast charging station for new energy vehicles. The DC charging gun can directly input DC power into the battery pack of the car without going through the inverter conversion inside the car, so the charging efficiency and speed can be improved. There are generally four standards for DC charging guns: Japanese standard (CHAdeMO), American standard (CCS1), European standard (CCS2) and Chinese standard (GB/T). These four standards are different in the interface shape and parameters, so the DC charging guns of different standards cannot be used in common with each other.
AC charging gun is a small current, low power charging gun, generally household or carried with the car. The AC charging gun needs to convert AC power into DC power through an inverter inside the car, and then input it into the car's battery pack, so the charging efficiency and speed are relatively low. There are also three standards for AC charging guns: American standard (Type1), European standard (Type2) and Chinese standard (GB/T). These three standards are also different in the shape of the interface, but they are relatively close in parameters, so they can be converted through an adapter.
To learn more about the exchange gun, take the O10 charging gun under the name of Bolato as an example. The O10 charging gun follows the European standard (Type2) and has obtained CE certification. In terms of product concept, O10 charging gun has introduced two types of double gun head and single gun head from the design aspect. The difference between the two types is mainly reflected in the compatibility of use. The double gun head belongs to "independent finished product", and the use process does not need to be docked (installed) on the charging pile by itself, I .e. plug and play.
In terms of size, the O10 charging gun has a double gun head specification of 151*63mm/151*50mm, which is smaller and finer than common AC guns, and has more comfortable appearance texture and grip. In terms of weight, it is 1.2kg ~ 1.9kg, and the lightness is more obvious. In addition, the O10 charging gun can work normally in the temperature range of -30 ℃ ~ 50 ℃.
In life, we can choose the right charging gun according to different occasions and needs. Generally speaking, if we want to quickly add enough cruising range to the car, we can choose to use the DC charging gun of the fast charging station, but we must pay attention to choosing the standard that matches the car. If we want to charge the car slowly at home or in a public parking lot, we can choose to use the AC charging gun of the household socket or AC charging pile, but we must pay attention to safety and specifications.
